1933.34 Spring Wheat
Protein Content Is
Highest in Ten Years

BOHEMIAN, Feb. 4.zBased on
tests made in the Montana grain in
spection laboratory at Montana state
college, protein content OF Montana's
1933-34 spring wheat was the highest
in 10 years, w. o. Whitcomb, labor
atory superintendent, announces.
to Dec. 81.
The states 1884 spring wheat av-
eraged 1850 per cent protein, which
was the same as for 1888 and g per
cent higher than for the 10-year av-
erage. The highest protein test for
1884 was 1885 per cent, while the
lowest was $40 per cent. During
the past 10 years, the average pro-
TEN content of Montana spring
wheat tested in the laboratory rang
ed from 12.25 per cent in 1927 to
1850 per cent for 1888 and 1884,
with a 10-year average of 1870 per
cent. The highest test observed
during this time was 1925 per cent
in 1882, while the lowest was $40
per cent in 1927.
On the basis of low, medium and
high protein content, laboratory rec
ords also reveal a higher percentage
of 1888 and 1894 wheat in the upper
groups. The low group included
wheat testing IL per cent or under;
medium, over IL and up to Is per
cent, and high, above Is per cent.
On this basis, 81 per cent of the 1884
spring wheat fell in the low protein
class, as compared with 17.2 for the
10 years; 53.7 per cent in the me-
dunn class, as compared with 59.6
for the 10 years, and 1876 in the
high class, as compared with 23.1 in
the 10-year average.
Winter wheat averaged 1905 per
cent protein in 1884 and 1890 in
1888, as against 1906 for the 10
year average. The highest protein
test observed by the superintendent
in 1884 was 1890 per cent, while the
lowest was $40, as compared with
average limits for the 10-year period
Of 1888 and S.43. The highest per
cent OF protein in winter wheat was
10 in 1928 and the lowest, 100 in
both 1926 and 1927.
In the group limit classification,
49.1 per cent OF the 1884 winter
wheat fell in the low group, 46.3 per
cent In the medium group, and Al
per cent In the high group. The 10
year average shows 49.5 per cent in
the low group, 45.2 per cent In the
medium group, and 6.2 per cent In
the high group.

of Dr.. Russell Gibson, on the Libby

Werner Jones OF Cornell university
on the Spring Hill mine near Helena.
Biologists may soon be able to tell
when they have reached the bottom
or the roots OF a vein, the writer
says; under what conditions certain
limestone beds act as r reservoirs:
what are the causes of the presence
