1 In the same variety of oats there is extreme variation as to 

 the presence and size of awns, so that different writers will place 

 the same variety in different groups, depending upon the mate- 

 rial at hand. In these pages, awnless means that most of the 

 specimens studied have either very small awns or usually none. 



2 There is no agreement as to the identity of this variety, 

 The name is often applied to a strain of Rustproof.
