Several varieties were planted in 1912, the best yields being 

 from Pink Kafir, Dwarf Milo, and Broom corn. 



Because of drought all plots failed in 1913, and no crop was 

 harvested except on plot of White Kafir which yielded less than 

 300 pounds of fodder per acre. 



In 1914, the only grain sorghums grown were Feterita and 

 Dwarf Milo, the latter producing 1600 pounds of seed per acre, 

 the first sorghum seed produced on the Snowflake Dry-farm. 



Best yields of the entire test were secured in 1915, a plot of 

 White Kafir yielding 9800 pounds of dry fodder, while profitable 

 results were obtained from Dwarf Milo and Shallu.
