SOME VARIETIES
ARE RECOMMENDED

A. Il. Grsntham, agronomist at
Delaware College has issued the fol-
lowing bulletin on Increasing the
Yield Of Wheat"
The variety OF wheat Is often de-
termining factor In securing high
yield OF grain. Il is important to Sc
lect varieties OF good milling. quail
ity, that stand up well. that are most
resistant 10 disease and that yield
heavily. More than one hundred yari-
etles have been tested at the Expert
ment Station during the past nine
years In general the bearded varieties
have made better yields than the
smooth. There are some smooth
wheats which produce excellent
yields. yet one year with another the
bearded sorts are more dependable
than the smooth. II appears from the
experiments conducted at the Station
that the bearded varieties yield bet
ter on poor soil and under unfavor-
able conditions OF seeding. A cOmpari-
son OF the average yield OF twenty
smooth with twenty bearded shows q
difference Of Ave bushels per acre IN
the favor OF the boarded. OF the ter
highest yielding varieties during the
past eight years eight have beer
bearded. The ten lowest yielding vari
eties were smooth.
OF the bearded varieties the follow.

Doubtless many Delaware farmerl
