NS all foul seeds of any kine have grown it ioow. for two seasons and !have thoroughly tested its good qualities and are now in a posi- tion to recommend it to our brother farmers as one of the best rarities of six rowed barley ever introduced into the county of Huron. The points of superiority over thecommon variety are as follows :- It grows longer and coarser straw and in regard to stiffness it is more like wheat straw than that of barley, donsequeutly it stands up splendidly. It has a longer head, a larger grain. and will tield at the lowest calculation 10 buehels per acre more than the common variety of ,barley, besides it is recommended by the brewers iwbeing equal to the common barley for their purposes.
