57 



nagar (a soft, white, weak wheat), grown at different stations in the 

 alluvium, that the samples differed widely in consistency, nitrogen 

 content and to some extent in the milling and baking tests. The 

 results of the two years are summed up in the following tables. 



Consistency, composition and baking value of Muzaffarnagar white grown at (lore 



stations in 1907-1908. 



In addition to the tests with Muzaffarnagar white, twenty-five 

 Punjab wheats, belonging to three subspecies, were grown in pure line 

 culture at Cawnpore and compared with the same wheats grown the 

 previous year at Lyallpur. In general, there was a large increase 

 in the proportion of hard grains at Cawnpore and also an increase 

 in the percentage of nitrogen. These wheats have since been grown 

 for two seasons at Cawnpore and at Pusa, and the complete results 

 are described in the next section.
