14o Grains in One Wheat Head.

W. F.. Mallory yesterday brought
to the city some wheat that beats any
thing we have ever seen in this line.
The grain was raised on the Charley
Wing place about mile southwest of
Sweetwater Junction. and was taken
from large field some of which is
over six feet high. 1t is of the blue
stem variety and the heads measure
six inches in length. There were %
meshes on one head which averaged
five grains to the mesh. making a total
of 40 grains to the head. The grains
are very large aud plump. just pass
ing into the ripening stage. Three acres
Of this wheat was cut for hay and it
took thirteen balls of Irvine to bind it,
representing $4,000 feet Of string
Mr.. Mallory says he never saw any
thing like it and predicts an unpece-
dented yield for this field.
