Farm Crops: Conducted one vicinity .test of corn with 13 plats. Kanred wheat was introduced Into the county last fall, for tho first time. Nine farmers secured 163 bushels' of seed. Tho wheat 'yielded an average of about nine bushels more per acre than the Turkey Red commonly sown in this section, Nineteen hundred and eighty-two bushels were sold for seed, at from $1.25 to $1.50 per bushel, on the .. Al.ll bj-VMibU UUnibU bUUilVJ men sowed from.this seed this fall. One variety est of winter wheat was started this. fall. Hardiness is one of the principal things to be observed in these plats. Three years ago wo secured 30 bushels of Nebraska oats for three farmers. From this seed, farmers scattered all over tho' bottom are raising this variety. Rosen rye seed was secured for one farmer with which to sow 80 acres on new heavy gumbo sod land where wheat, both spring and winter, had been a failure. The owner stat ed that he considered that this rye yielded twice as much per acre as wheat would havo .this year on the same land. Co-operating with tho State Exten sion office, 6 fields of Kanred wheat and 3 of Nebraska No. 21 bats were Inspected and the owners given a certificate of purity. Aid is given these men in securing buyers for this seed. Hubam, tho new annual swectclo ver, was tried In a plat on ono farm with gratifying results. Soy beans were raised on 3 farms with corn for hoKtrinpr off.
