Tin 1 comparison n\' thoe three cereals will be discussed more fully 

 in the general conclusion. There being only one sample of foreign 

 emmer no comparison of domestic and foreign grain of these two 

 varieties i- p> ihle. The higheM protein content of the emmers was 

 in a -ample from South Dakota, l!M)3, No. 1051, having 18. 69 pounds 

 of total protein and 1 1.02 pounds of digestible protein per hundred 

 poumU, the average protein bring l.'J.Js pounds total and 9.96 pounds 

 digestible. 



In the ea>e of the einkorn, No. 1065, a sample from Kansas, 1905, 

 had the highest protein content, a total of 16.25 pounds and 12.19 

 pounds of digestible protein per hundred pounds.
