GIVES ADVICE ON
WHEAT SEEDING
STATE AGRONOMIST HOLDS YOGO
VARITY TO BE BEST FOR
PLANTING
Farmers May Secure Advice on Where
to Buy All Four Recommended Seeds
From the Offices of Their County
Agents; Yogo Supplies Are Limited.

Winter wheat seeding time Is
fast approaching and producers
are reminded by Ralph d. Mercer,
extension agronomist at Montana
State college, that there are four
standard varieties recommended
for use in this state. Each of these
varieties has had its adaptability
to Montana soil and climatic con-
ditions proven through extensive
experiment station tests and COM
mercial production.
AS to the best time to seed winter
wheat, Mercer points out that expert
ments conducted at the north Montana
branch experiment station near Havre
indicate that the period from Sept. 20
to Oct. 5 is the best time to seed
winter wheat in the north central part
of the state. These experiments, cover
ing nine-year period, show average
yields for various dates of seeding as
follows: Aug. 1854 bushels; Sept. l.
l6.5 bushels: Sept. l5-18.8 bushels;
Oct. 1-2l1 bushels; Oct 15-ls4
bushels; Nov. liza bushels.
Performance Is Best
OF the four standard varieties Of
winter wheat the Yogo variety is out
standing for performance under Mon
tana conditions, Mercer. said. Yogo s
a bearded wheat ana is a compara-
lively new variety in Montana. 1t is
especially valuable in this state for
three reasons: First, because of its
winter hardness: second, because it is
considered a consistent high yielder.
During the past eight years of testing
at the three agronomic experiment
stations ii the state. Yogo has yielded
from to 9 percent more per acre
than any other recommended variety.
Third point in favor of Yogo is the
fact that it is more resistant to smut
or bunt than the other three recon-
mended varieties.
Because of its favorable character
istics, Ycgo can be grown in many
areas in Montana which would other
wise be restricted TO seedlings OF Kar-
mont, NeWturk or Montana 36-the
other three varieties recommended for
use in the state.
Registered supplies of Yogo seed are
limited and Mercer suggests that grow
ers interested in growing this variety
get in touch with their county extern
sion agent about where to get seed.
Extension agents also have nforma-
ton on seed supplies of the other three
recommended varieties.
