Of the varieties grown during the nine years none of them has 
yielded more than Wataribune (C. I. No. 1561), which averaged 3.12 
pounds to the row. Other high-yielding varieties were C. I. No. 
1465, an upland rice obtained from South Africa but originally from 
Bolivia, and C. I. Xo. 1428, from German East Africa, with yields 
of 2.81 and 2.51 pounds, respectively. 
Wataribune also led all varieties and strains grown from 1914 to 
1921. In this 8-year period it averaged 2.95 pounds to the row, 
C. I. No. 1465 again ranking second with 2.61 pounds. Oiran (C. I. 
No. 1562), with an average yield of 2.45 pounds, ranked above C. I. 
No. 1428, which averaged 2.40 pounds. 
In the '7-year period from 1915 to 1921, Wataribune, with an 
average yield of 2.91 pounds to the row, was slightlv outyielded by 
Shinriki (C. I. No. 1642), with 2.94 pounds. Other high-yielding 
strains were C. I. Nos. 1465, 1428, 1925, and 1564 (Butte). C. 1. 
Nos. 1428, 1465, and 1925 are late short-grain varieties. 
Wataribune slightly surpassed Shinriki in the 6-year period from 
1916 to 1921, with 2.8S pounds to 2.80 pounds for the latter. C. I.
