BIG BARLEY
CROP IN THE STATE
AGRICULTURAL EXP e r MENT
STATION SENDS OUT GLOW.
ING REPORT.
SEE 20 BUSHELS TO ACRE
Threshing Tests Show the Best Aver
age Acre Yields Yet Obtained.
Wisconsin Grows One-Eiehth
of All Barley in Country.

Madison - Wisconsin, already ia
nous for its barley production, accord
ing to conservative estimates, has
again outdone all former records
I'VE will undoubtedly find that we
have the largest crop of barley ever
harvested in Wisconsin this year" said
X. A. Moore, interviewed at his Office
at the agricultural experiment station.
This is due in part to Il larger acre
age, but even more to the favorable
weather we have had and the hiSh
class seed which was sowed."
Threshing tests reported to officials
of the Agricultural Experiment asso-
citation show the best average acre
yields yet obtained in the state. The
state average in 1915 was 35.5 bushels
and in 1914 q bushels an acre. Based
on the bright returns from this years
crop, authorities predict an acre yield
for 1916 of at least 30 bushels.
Wisconsin grows fully one-ighth of
the barley raised in the whole country
and ranks third in the roll of states in
total production.
According to Mr.. Moore, fully 95 per
cent of the seed used in growing the
Badger barley crop is of the well
known pedigree variety first grown at
the agricultural experiment station,
and distributed largely by means of
the cooperative association of grain
growers affiliated with the station.
