Some thirty years ago, Prof. A.
E. Blount of the Colorado Expert
ment Station, developed very su-
perior milling spring wheat for the
irrigated lands below 5000 feet ele-
walton Defiance wheat. This was
taken to many mountain valleys
along the Denver d. Rio Grande
System and quite successfully
grown. But when taken to the
San Luis Valley (the largest noun
tain valley on the line of the Den
yer d Rio Grande railroad) and
other localities above 1900 feet
elevation, it was found some seasons
were too short to fully mature the
wheat before frost, making it diff
cult for the miller to produce a uni
form grade of -four. The Expert
ment Station then proceeded to
test, near Monte Vista, some forty
different varieties of wheats to get
one good milling type which would
mature from ten days to two weeks
earlier than the Defiance and have
the desired milling qualities.
BY hybridization and Judicial Sc
lection wheat of good milling
qualities, fully ten days earlier than
Defiance, was produced-C Colorado
No. so. This wheat was satisfactory
to the miller, always matured with
in the growing season, but the
farmer found that it seldom would
yield above thirty bushels per acre.
One farmer, near Bountiful, last
year obtained fifty-six bushels per
acre.
The Defiance seed stock, being
renewed from time to time. soon
adapted itself to the valley and we
now hear but little of frosted wheat.
1t is the principal type of wheat in
the valley; many thousand acres of
this good wheat is grown each year,
the average yield running above
rather than under thirty-five and
forty bushels per acre. Some good
wheat farmers of the valley have
harvested as high as sixty and sixty
five bushels of wheat in very favor
able seasons. Millers of the valley
say this is the best wheat they have
yet been able to obtain to make the
flour their trade demands. The
flour which received gold medal
at the St Louis Exposition was
made at the Conejos mill from San
Luis Valley grown wheat. OF late
years, millers of the Valley state
that the quality of the gluten in
the wheat deteriorates in n very few
years, unless they renew the seed
wheat stock, bringing the wheat
largely from the Northern Colorado
district. 10 answer tins Objection
and to fully determine, if possible,
what causes deterioration in the
gluten of the wheat, the Agronomy
Department of the Colorado Ex-
pertinent Station has, this season,
started an experiment in co-opera-
ton with selected farmers of the
state, which we hope may prove
successful.
The best strain of regenerated
Defiance, progeny of one desirable
wheat plant grown in 1903 at the
Experimental Farm at Fort Collins,
is used for this foundation seed
stock.

Wants to Meet Merchants.
If the business men of Laramie
would take a few pointers from Oma-
ha and Denver and get out and get
acquainted with their out-of-town GUS
toners, and not stay in Laramie and
wait for something to turn up, but get
out and do a little rustling, they could
lay the foundation for a future trade.
1t is no wonder to US that the mail
order houses do the majority of the
business.

GARAGE GOSSIP
 THE BRIDGE PROBLEM
Minor Notes of Local Bearing Gather ed on Gasoline Row.

The Salt river bridge continues to bob up among the autoists and the rest of the users of the highway to the south side. One of the plans tenta lively outlined. involves the building of a low wall of granite and cement several feet wide. from each bank of the river so low in fact that high water would pass over it without car rying il out. These two walls or ap breaches would be built out to within 55 or 30 feet of each other, narrowing the channel of the stream except in flood seasons. From these walls would be swung a bridge of heavy stringers and plank made in three sections chained together. This construction would be anchored to the bank by d cable and when high water came il would not be torn to pieces. but simply like raft drifted around against the bank from which it could be swung back when the flood passed. This is simply a cheap and temporary ar rangement but it would give a crossing nine months in the year. Unless a large sum is raised for a concrete or steel bridge it appears to be about the only feasible plan in sight.
