While of course the Missouri dent stock grown in 1011 did not 
produce as tall stalks as it doubtless would have done if it had 
not been previously selfed. it is quite unlikely that any cross- 
pollination within the original stock would have resulted in a 
type like family 1146. The cross of a tall, few-stalked variety 
with a short, many-stalked sort has resulted in the production of 
a tall many-stalked type quite unlike either parent.
