RESULTS OF W1STlilt 'FILET
EXPERIMENTS
AT via ONTARIO AGRICULTURAL
COLLEGE, 1897.
One hundred and eighty-nine plots have
been devoted to Winter wheat experiments
this season at the Ontario Agricultural
College. Owing to the late harvest and
the exceedingly wet weather no Winter
Wheat Bulletin arm be issued this year
in time to be of much practical service
before the period of Winter wheat seeding
is reached.
In an experiment with ninety-one var-
ieties of Winter wheat, grown under aim.
ilex conditions in 1807, it is found that
the seven varieties which stand highest
in yield of grain per acre are the same
seven varieties which have given the
largest yield of grain per acre among
eighty-six varieties grown on the experi•
mental plots for four yearn in saceessiou,
The following list gives the names of these
three varieties with the average yield per
acre for this season :-
bushel of grain ; while that treated with
Potaeeium sulphide produced an average
of 109 balls of smut ; that treated with
Copper Sulphate12 balls of smut ; and
that treated with hot water 0 belle of
smut per bushel of grain. The hot water
treatment whish IS one of the cheapest
and moat ef0eetual remedies, °onsiete lit
immersing seed wheat for fifteen minutes
in hot water kept eta temperature of 132
degrees P. The water should net go be-
low 180 and not above 135 degrees. Not
only is the hob water treatment very
effectual in killing the smut spores, but ib
frequently improves the productive power
of the 'seed, as shown by the increased
yield of grain par none. Every farmer in
smut infected districts should trent spill
oieut seed to insure the harvesting of
olefin grain for seed next year.

The Toronto Mail and Empire claims
to have a tip as to the date of the Pro
vinoiel elections and states that they will
take plane on November 28rd.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier has been doing
what few men in the higher world of
politics can do, deliver eloquent speeches
or orations in English or in French, in
London and in Feria. Sir Adolphe
Cbepleau can do the same ; we doubt if
there are many others. One or two
Frenchmen can also do it. We do not
mean to converse fluently in either
tongue -for many can do that -but who
can get on their feet at a moment's
notice and electrify their hearers in
eitber language. -Toronto World.

Although the comparative order of the
yields of these seven varieties are not the
same in 1897 as in the average of four
years, still the fact that they gave the
largest yields in both oases among all the
varieties tested is a very important fea-
ture in the experiment.
Land upon which peas were used as a
green manure in 1896 produced a aoneid•
erably larger yield of Winter wheat per
acre than similar land upon which rape
or buckwheat had been used as a green
manure, or which had been worked ae e
bare summer fallow. Thio experiment
wee concluded in duplicate, but for only
one year. It is being repeated this season
in a similar way.
Large pinmp seed ROAM in the Autumn
of 1800 produced 35) bushels per sore there
than the small plump seed; 6 4f5 bushels
per We more than shrunken seed ; and
41 bushels per acre more than the seed
which had been broken with the machine
in tbreehing. The same number of Win-
ter wheat grains were used in the differ-
ent selections, and the experiment was
conducted in duplicate.
In the average of four years' experi.
mente in cutting two varieties of grain at
five different stages of ripening, the re.
sults show that the grain out before
maturity does not give as large a yield as
that which was allowed to become fully
ripened. The details of this experiment
ann be more fully studied when they are
printed in the annual report of the College
for 1897.
The average results of an experiment
eonducted for five years in suacesefon, in
sowing Winter wheat at different datee
in the Autumn, allow that the soedinge of
September 2nd and 3rd gave ;5) of a buehel
per sora more than the seodings of Sep.
Umber 701 end 051), and 7h bnehole per
acre more than the eeedinge of 53eptember
17111 and 20th, It is found that it its not
usually advisable to sow Winter wheat in
the vicinity of Guelph later than Septem-
ber 0th.
