conditions are very encouraging
for an enlarged acreage of fall
wheat this season. The very best
variety which we have yet been
able to find for Colorado conditions,
is Turkey Red winter wheat.
grown for several seasons either in
Colorado attitudes or in the north
ern latitudes. The American Beet
Sugar company, of Lamar, have
several thousand bushels developed
from choice strain which we in
troduced in 1905, from the most
careful winter wheat grower in the
west. Mr.. w. S. Galloway, of Yer
non. Yuma county, Colorado, has
several hundred bushels of fine
quality Turkey Red Wheat grown
above the ditch for several seas
ons. The writer has very carefully
examined the wheat from both
growers and hereby recommends
it as pure strain of Turkey Red
winter wheat.
Seek your wheat within the state
There are probably other farmers
growing choice strain of this
good wheat which the writer has
not had the opportunity of grading
and cannot therefore name in this
circular letter.
Hard, winter wheat commands
a premium at every mill in the
state. Colorado millers are urging
wheat growers to increase their
acreage, and with excellent market
conditions; the agronomy depart
ment of Ft. Collins feels justified
in urging Colorado farmers to in
crease the acreage of this reliable
wheat which is giving remunera-
tive returns both in quantity and
price.
We would urge early prepara-
ton of the seed bed; in the high
er attitudes seed in August; in the
medium attitudes, from the 2nd to
the 4th week in September, and at
5000 to $500 from the Bird week in
September to the third week in
October, varing according to mois-
ture conditions. If this wheat is
seeded at the right time in the
fall, it gets good root growth, and
is thereby better prepared for Wig
orons stooling in the spring.
From thirty to fifty pounds per
acre is recommended for seeding
on lands above the ditch and from
seventy to eighty-five pounds on
lands under. ditch. The straw is
fine and when seeded too heavily
is more likely to lodge. The ker-
nal is small and for this reason
should not be seeded SO heavily as
other fall wheats. The writer
this last year seeded at the rate of
seventy-fve pounds on the expert
mental farm and believes that ev-
en- this rate of seeding was, if any
thing, too heavy. Other types of
winter wheat seeded at the same
rate, showed remarkable differ
ences in character of stand, indi-
eating that more seed should have
been used to the acre.
The writer has been asked to
furnish fifty bushels of good quail
ity Colorado No. so wheat to the
government of Australia. This
wheat has been DEVELOPED especi-
ally for the higher attitudes of
Colorado. 1t was grown for many
years in the San Luis valley un-
der the direction of Mr.. A. I'll.
Danielson, assistant in agriculture.
The writer is not able to fill the
order If anyone in the state has
100 bushels of Colorado No. 80
wheat for sale, the writer would
like to have him send sample Of
grain at once. We want to secure
for Australia so bushels of the
best quality of this high altitude
wheat obtainable in the state.
