the 2-rowed barleys than to those of the Manchuria type. The data at this 
point do not show which are superior, the 2-rowed barleys or those of the Coast 
type. The hybrid varieties were not, for the most part, as promising as they 
were at the stations farther east. Gold (C. I. No. 1145), a pedigreed barley of 
the Hanna type, was grown during the years 1914 and 1915. It showed promise 
during these years, but was not so good as several other varieties.
