BULLETIN 1334^ U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGEICULTTTRE 
nessee Winter (C. I. No. 257) produced very high yields in 1904, 1905, and 
1906, but it has never attained commercial importance in this section, because 
of the danger of winterkilling. 
During the 10-year period from 1912 to 1921, inclusive, numerous varieties 
were grown in replicated nursery rows. Here, as at Cornell University Agricul- 
tural Experiment Station, it is thought that replicated row tests are adequate for 
the purposes of this discussion. From 1918 to 1921, inclusive, however, some of 
the varieties reported in Table 51 were replicated only three times or grown in 
onl}^ a single row. These yields are believed to be of sufficient importance to 
warrant including them, but the conclusions drawn from the varietal comparison 
may not be so accurate as in the case of some of the other stations. 
The summarized digest of Table 51 shows a comparison of 10 representative 
varieties. Coast (C. I. No. 690) is the best of these, but as it was grown only 
three years its rank is not so definite as that of the others compared. O. A. C. 21 
(C. I. No. 1470), a pedigreed Manchuria barley, was exceeded only by Coast. 
Third in point of yield is Odessa (C. I. No. 182), followed by Manchuria (C. I. 
No. 1472). Horsford (C. I. No. 1474), which is usuaUy one of the lowest yield- 
ing sorts, is better than the remaining four in this group. White Smyrna (C. I. 
No. 195) is quite inferior at Manhattan.
