Superior Daily .Journal of JulyflO. Winter Wheat for Nebraska. In tho fall of 18011 thirty-seven vari eties of winter wheat werti sown on tho Station farm. Of these, all but three varieties killed out so badly that it was not considered werth while to harvest them. Tho three varieties that lived through were Turkey Uod, Mij; Frame and Cui-roll. In the fall of 18!I8 lhere were sown uioi'o than u hundred vari ed ins, and'only live camii throiiuh the winter in j$ond coiull ion. Those just mentioned were tluee of tho live. Last fall forty-two varieties were sown, of which seven did not Kcrminato anil nineteen winter-killed. The same three varieties worn amonn the best, but the yields havo not been asceitaiuoil. In older to test the relative merits of the seed thus self cted and that of the saiuo varieties fro.u some other nwo lions of the country, seed of tho Turkey Ited variety was brought from the Ohio and Iowa Kxperiuient Stations and of the Turkey from Knus.is The latter 1 is toiy dmi.iir to tlm Turkey lied I ii'owu here .Sfid "f ilio Currell vari ed was nlo obtained froiy the Mmy laud Kxperiineiit Station. None of these did hu well as tho Nebi aska lo wn varieties, with the possible exception of tho Kansas Turkey. Contrary to expectations this wheat matured earl ier than the Nebraska Turkey Hed. It did not IoiIro nnd was not badly effect ed with rust. In these respects it wns as K"otl as the Nebraska Kfow'' wheat. Moth tlm Ohio and Iowa Turkey Hed lodged and rusied badly and matutet! Inter than tho Ntibinska Turkey Hed. The Currell from Maryland made n ranker growth than the Nebraska t'ur tell, but lodged ami rusted badly. It is the aim of the Hxperiinent Sta tion to extend the area of winter wheat culture over its laigo a portion of tie stale as possible. To this end a veiy Urtre number of varieties, of winter wheat have been tested by tno Station dining a period ol several years. Those strains of Turkey Hed anil Mig Frame- varieties that have been grown on the station farm for several years havo in oven iheiuselves very hnidy. Seed wheat of either one of these vari eties will be sent out oii'applicalion, free of cost except trauspoi tation charges, as long as the supply huts, to parlies living north of tho IMatHi river and iUo '" 'l(,so W(llil " tm' 100th nieiidiiin '',',' "vox.
