Aftea the ;Various Varieties have been carefully teated at the Cellegel for a few years, those which haveigiven the system of co-operative experimental work enables the farmers t6 determine for themselves whieh of , the tearling varieties will give the best results upon there own particular farms. As a practical result from elataining in- formation in this way, hundreds- of farmers are growing, varieties in their regular. farm praetice, which were entirely unknown to• them a short time ago. For instance, the Dawson's Golden Chaff variety of -winter Wheat, which has ;recently giVen sueh high average yeilds of grain per acre, both at the College arid, throughout Ontario was scarcely -knolyn except ' in one neighborhood neer Guelph, until it was sown in our Experimental Grounds in .1891, and afterwards distributed for co-operative experimental work, This is now one of the Most popular varieties of winter wheats'in this Provinuce. In the fall of '14)5, nine leading varieties of winter wheat weae dis- tributed in this way. They were divided into fr-vosets with five varieties in each. The Dawson's Golaen Chaff was used in both seta- to form a basis by -which the resultS of all the varieties could be comparedwith one anether. Each person who wanted to conduct an experiment, stated in his applioation which set lie desired, and five varieties in the set selected airereasent to his address, and full. 'instructions for conducting the -experiment. The grain was sown at the rate of one and one-third. bushels per acre, upon plats exactly uniform in size and Shape - The yields per acre havie been.caleelated Ninety reports of Carefully conduct- ed experiments have been received this season up to time . of writing.
