Whether this idea is., the outcome of a sales propaganda is not always clear, but there arc strong grounds to suppose that this may be the case. At any rate, advisors on agricultural matters are deluged with requests for infor­ mation as to where Spelt wheat can be purchased, and the yield possibil­ ities of this type of wheat compared to the common vulgare kinds. The Cereal Division have been test­ ing Emmers and Spelt for upwards of 24 years and, in that time, have been able to observe their behaviour under practically all sorts of seasons. From an analysis of the yield data over a period of 24 years we find that Smooth Spelt yields 32 bushels per acre compared to 33.5 bushels for Huron (a common bread wheat var­ iety) over the same period. However, this difference of a bushel and a half for Huron over Smooth Spelt is only part of the picture, as in the case of Smooth Spelt, the chaff adheres to the kernel. This chaff would amount to about 20 per cent, of the weight of the kernel so that the Huron wheat would yield approximately 8 bushels more grain per acre than the Smooth Spelt. A further study of the avail­ able data indicates that over a ten year period^’ the yields are still more in favour of the Huron variety. In the matter of maturity, we find that the Smooth Spelts are about 6 days later than Huron Wheat, and, while this is not so very important in eastern Canada where the season is usually sufficiently long, it cer­ tainly is not in favour of the .Spelt variety. If the wheat is being grown for feed purposes, it is always advisable to grow a variety which produces the highest number of bushels per acre of good quality kernels. It would ap­ pear, therefore, inadvisable for any farmer to purchase seed of Smooth Mr. and Mrs, John Blake Mafeking spent Sunday in Wingham. attending the anniversary in the Unit­ ed Church.
