Twenty-Five varieties were tested,
the average yield being a2.o2 bushels.
There was an average difference of
500 bushels between the smooth and
bearded varieties in favor of the
smooth. About one-fourth of the
grain was winter killed, which ac-
counts for the small average yield, it
being only about two-thirds of our
usual crop. The average yield of
straw was 245o pounds, and the aver
age weight per bushel 62.o4 pounds.
Turkish Red was the poorest variety,
yielding 1887 bushels of grain and
1890 pounds of straw. The yield of
ten varieties that have been tested for
nine and ten years show no tendency
to run out, except slight decrease in
the yield of straw.
A bulletin, giving complete rec
ord OF all the varieties for a series of
years, is in preparation, and will be
