The data shown in Table XXI are not conclusive. Though the 

 Kherson has yielded as well as any other variety at Carthage, more 

 data are needed before the most desirable varieties for growing in 

 southwestern Missouri can be named definitely.

According to the data shown in Table XXII both the early red 

 and the early white varieties have outyielded the Kherson and 

 Sixty-Day at Fayetteville. The one best variety has been the Burt, 

 which has outyielded the Kherson by slightly more than 5 bushels
