Wheat Leads
Among q Varieties

Of the "a distinct varieties OF hard
red spring wheat now being COM
merc:ally grown in the United
States, the Marquis IS the leading
variety, according to agronomists.
United States Department Of Agri-
culture. Since its introduction into
this country in 1913, Marquis wheat
has become more widely grown than
all other varieties Of spring wheat
1t has outyiel6ed almost all other
varieties, due principally to its
earlier maturity, and eXcels them in
the quality OF its flour.
The varieties OF hard red spring
wheat differ wide.y IN their yielding
ability. rust resistance, earliness anc
milling and baking value. as well as
in their external appearance and in
their adaptation to local conditions.
OF the new varieties recently devel-
oped the Kota Is the most promis-

southern parts OF that state. where
stem rust is often a serious factor
IN wheat production. The Preston
variety yields only slightly less than
the Marquis in the Minnesota and
Red River valley, but considerably
less in other sections. The Red Fife
and Power varieties are best adapt
ed TO northwestern North Dakota
and northwestern Minnesota.

Cattle Tick Losing
Ground, Report Says

The report of the bureau Of ami
NAL industry, United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. for the fiscal
year 1922 shows good progress in the
work Of eradicating the cattle-fever
tick.
The work OF the last fiscal year
showed 4S,OS9.OO5 dippings of cattle
for the eradication OF ticks. AS an
indication that the dipping Of cattle
is not attended by any great loss or
danger. only seven deaths occurred
in every 100000 cattle dipped and
handled, besides which only in
every 100000 were injured.
The number of cattle dippings in
Texas shattered all records since
the beginning OF systematic tick
eradication in 1906. During June,
the last month Of the fiscal year.
more than 100000 d!ppings were
made there, and about 10000 watts
were in operation. These results
were possible largely through CO.
operation with the bureau by State
and local officials and livesock own
ers
As the territory infested by the
cattle tick IS gradually diminished
under the combined efforts OF the
Federal state and county authori-
ties TO starve and poison this des-
tructive insect out OF existence. the
difficulties IN the way OF further
rapid reduction OF the area increase.
IN territory already released from
quarantine there remain here and
there a few infested premises or
centers Of tick infestation which
must be held under control until
the last tick can be destroyed. This
requires police duty and makes It
more difficult 20 concentrate efforts

work.
