IV. VARIETY TESTS OF RYE. 



Variety tests of rye were conducted at the Edgecombe farm during 

 1901 only. But three varieties were under test, namely, the Georgia. 

 the Albruzzen and the Petkus. The Georgia made the highest yield

 the wheats. 



THE BEST VARIETY. 



It is no1 to be expected that we shall, by merely testing the many
