The Bulletin. 7 



In Tables VI and VII are the compiled results of the tests of seven 

 varieties for five years on the Iredell and Edgecombe Farms. When- 

 ever a variety maintains the lead for five or more years, one is safe in 

 concluding that that variety is well adapted to the locality in Avhich it 

 was grown. Any farmer living in the vicinity of the Iredell and Edge- 

 combe farms can plant a pure acclimatized strain of Weekly's Improved 

 or Biggs' Seven Ear, the leading variety of these respective farms, with 

 a reasonable certainty of obtaining maximum results, so far as variety 

 influences those results.
