EXPERIMENTS OF 1909 

 During the season of 1909 the same experiment was conducted 

 at the Tulare and Davis Stations, with the exception that the 

 following varieties of wheat were used: 



Gluten grains from Richi 1044A; 

 Gluten grains from Kul^anka 1045 A; 

 Starch grains from Kubanka 1045A; 

 Gluten grains from Turkey 1046A; 

 Gluten grains from Beloglina 1047A; 

 Starch grains from Beloglina 1047A. 



Determinations made upon these previous to seeding showed 

 as follows :
