TESTS OF BARLEY VARIETIES IN AMERICA 
111 
Without doubt, this is a district favorable to the cultivation of 2-rowed barleys. 
The Chevalier and Hanna varieties, which seem to be superior types here, differ 
somewhat from Hannchen and White Smyrna in that they require a somewhat 
longer but cooler growing season. At Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, the second 
highest yielding variety grown for a period of years also was a barley of the 
ChevaHer group, namely, Chevaher II (C. I. No. 200).

substation (at Havre) in part or all of the six years from 1916 to 1921, inclusive

MOCCASIN, MONT. 
The barley yields at the Judith Basin (Moccasin, Mont.) substation were 
obtained in cooperation with the Montana Agricultural Experiment Station. 
Barley was harvested in 13 of the years from 1908 to 1921, inclusive. The crop of 
1912 was destroyed by hail. Annual and average yields for the entire period 
are shown in Table 58.
