1. In average yield of winter
wheat per acre, Dawson's Golden
Chaff stood highest among eleven
varieties tested over Ontario in 1893,
nine varieties in 1894, nine varieties
in 1895, and nine varieties in 1896,
also among fifty-three varieties
grown at the Agricultural College
for five years in succession.
2. In the co-operative experiments
for 1896, Dawson's Golden Chaff,
Jones' Winter Fife, and Pride of
Genesee gave the best yields on
heavy soil, and Jones' Winter Fife,
Dawson's Golden Chaff, and Sur-
prise, on light soils.
3. Pride of Genesee, Dawson's 1
Golden Chaff, and Jones' Winter
Fife made the best appearance in
the spring of 1896.
4. Early Genesee Giant, Early
Red Clawson, Dawson's Golden Chaff
and American Bronze possessed the
stiffest straw in 1896.

Within the past seven years ono
hundred and thirty-three varieties of
winter wheat have been very care-
fully tested in the Experimental
Department at the Agricultural
College, Guelph. Besides "ascertain-,
ing the ccmparative yields of grain
and straw of the different varieties,
the wheats have been closely. ex-
amined each year for.tbeir quality
of grain, time of maturity, strength.
of straw, freedom of rust, etc., in
order to determine which kinds will
give the most satisfactory results,
when grown under uniform condi-
ditions. 'After the various varieties
have been carefully tested at the
College for a few years, those which
have given the best satisfaction are
selected for distribution thoughout'
Ontario. This system of cd -operative
experimental work enables the
farriers to determine for themselves
which of the leading varieties will
give the best results upon their own
peculiar farms As a practical re-
sult from obtaining information in
