THE HARDEST VARIETIES OF WHEAT
Reports MaIe by Crop Correspondents to
The Farmers Review.

In response to tie query put to cror
correspondents as 10 the varieties OF
winter wheat which best withstand Sc
we're frosts in their several localities, or,
in other words. which variety had proved
hardest. the answers received indicate
that for frost resisting qualities the red
bearded varieties have taken the lead.
The most popular varieties appear to be
the Mediterranean 4 red bearded wheat,
and Fultz. Il smooth red wheat. OF tbs
Mediterranean there are 10 complaints
a large proportion Of the Illinois and HI
diana correspondents where the tesSs
have been most severe report that this
wheat has endured the winter better
than all other varieties planted. The
reports are not so uniform in regard to
Fultz. In some cases it held its OVID
with other varieties: III other cases ii
was badly winter killed,
Among the varieties reported to have
endured the winter we'll we note tlc fol-
lowing among the red bearded sorts:
Mediterranean, VALLEY, velvet chaif,
Seneca, .cngberry, Ohio swamp, gypsy
