Wheats of very fair milling quality. 



Prelude 



our so-called iiard red wlu-ats. Even 

 Taylor's Wonder, a fairly typical soft 

 wheat, has given frood results. Praetie- 

 ally its only failing has been a slight 

 coarseness of texture. White Fife has 

 been tested for six years (lf)U to 1919) 

 and it has proven it self at least equal to 

 Red Fife. During the last three years it 

 has been superior.

Certain wJieats seem to fall naturally 

 into this grou)). They are distinguished 

 as wheats of fair milling quality as they 

 have never given really high tests. 



Prelude was tested in 1914, 1915 and 

 1919. In the first two cases it gave fair 

 test's and in the last a fairly poor test, 

 in common with most of the other var- 

 ieties.
