THE CONFLICT OVER ALASKA
WHEAT,

The Chicago Record Herald thinks
the farmers who are skeptical about
Alaska wheat will have their doubts
confirmed by the dispatch from Wash
the Department of Agriculture who
had been sent to Juniata, Idaho, to
inspect the crop has made his report.
Alaska yields twenty-five bushels
per acre. Badly mixed. Grain in
ferior. Quality soft and white Ordi-
nary wheat yielding fully as much.
Best varieties more ,... f..
And if that were not discourag-
Ing enough, the department adds that
its analysis shows that the Alaska
wheat contains only little more than
8 per cent of protein, while soft win
ter wheat averages 10 per cent, hard
winter wheat, IL per cent and hard
spring wheat 121s per cent.
It is interesting to compare these
returns with the stories and the claims
OF last June. A ST. Paul paper had
an account of Alaska wheat that
month, in which it spoke OF the won.
derful discovery made by Allen Adams
a former resident of Minneapolis. It
said that Mr.. Adams did not care
to give out details OF the discovery.
