supply was supplemented by supplies
of registered and certified seed brought
in by several companies and agencies.
Because of the limited supply of
foundation and registered acreage
available in some areas, the Montana
Seed Growers Association will accent
applications for certification on anv
certified Cheyenne brought in from
other states for the crop year of 1857.
Some of these lots may require rather
severe rOguing, so before any applica-
tons are made the grower should be
fully informed on this point and be
willing to purify the field prior to in
SpectiOn. With an average yield in 1887
on the acreage planted this fall. the
supply of Montana grown seed should
be sufficient to take care of all the
seed needs in the fall of 1857.
Samples for Grade
To avoid delays in the spring when
seed supplies move early and rapidIv
all producers of certified seed should
make an effort to clean up lots of seed
and send sample to the Montana Seed
Growers Association for official grade
full 15-pound sample of small grains

sent. a new sample will have 70 he

There is always a backlog of SAMPLES
for testing in the early spring months
SO it is to the growers ADVANTAGE 70
get his grade sample in in plenty of
time. Even though field was passed
on the official inspection, the seed pro-
ouced thereon cannot be sold as certi-
ned seed until the grade has been
established and the seed bagged, tagged
and sealed. Seed eligible for certifica-
ton sold in bulk is not eligible for re-
certification.
Another delay which can be avoided
IS the prompt submitting of the Seed

passed inspection and should be filled

weather in Montana to finish up the
harvest and for getting many of those
things done that have been awaiting
lag period. It hasn't been so good from
the standpoint of putting some of the
moisture back into the soil that was
pulled out to make the 1856 crop.
1t all goes to point out that you never
can be sure of what may happen to the
winter wheat crop come the following
spring, but year in and year out the
survival percentage in terms of acres
is much higher than we could normally
expect. A good case in point is the 1856
winter wheat crop. Conditions for
growth in the fall were terrible and a
long, hard winter was tough on the
plants, but the percentage of abandon
ment in the spring of 1856 was far less
than even the most optimistic cared to
predict. Maybe the winter wheat plants
will fool us again in the spring of 1857.
Cheyenne Winter Wheat
While we are on the subject of winter
wheat it might be well to say some
thing about the variety of Cheyenne
which was placed on the list of recon-
mended varieties for certification in
1857.
Cheyenne is not a new variety. hav-
ing been under test on the Montana
Agriculture Experiment Station at vari-
Gus periods since the early SOs. 1t has
always given a good performance from
the standpoint of yield. During the early
period of testing the main objection to
this variety from the standpoint Of
baking and milling was that if had
too strong gluten and thus REQUIRED foo
long mixing period. With the in
creased production in recent years of
varieties of wheat with weaker gluten
there has developed need for a va
rlety like Cheyenne to use in blending
Cheyenne is the result of q n1ant
selected from Crimean at the Nebraska
Agriculture Experiment Station in 1929
1t was tested and purified until if was
