A WINTER WHEAT INQUIRY.

In reply to your inquiry of August
10 about winter wheat, | would state
that the hardest varieties are the
Turkey and Kharkov. These varie-
ties have red berries, white chaff. and
are bearded. The Turkey comes from
the Crimean Peninsula Of Russia and
the NharkOV from a region consider.
ably to the north Of the Peninsula.
Winter wheat in South Dakota is fre-
quently killed o Il by drifting soil and
ice Particles, which injure and destroy
the crowns CT the plants during the
winter. Here ct Brookings we find
that by seeding the wheat with Il dou.
Bile disc drill as deep as possible. driv-
ing east and west. and not narrowing
or leveling the land after seeding. pitts
the OWn of the plants sufficiently
under the surface to be protected from
the drifting soil and snow.
Another method, which we have not
tried, but which would probably prove
satisfactory, would be TO top dress
the winter wheat field with two or
three inches Of straw per acre after
the ground freezes up in November.
Any protection hat will keep the
crown from being destroyed by wind
action will help 20 save the winter
wheat crop.
