Among the varieties compared in Table 62 there are four, Sandrel (C. 1. No. 
937), Trebi (C. I. No. 936), Italian (C. I. No. 914), and Odessa (C. I. No. 927), 
which were grown for only four years. Although Sandrel is the highest yielding 
variety for these years, its rank, as well as that of the other three grown'for this 
period, is not so definite as it would be if the results for a greater number of 
years had been included. Following Sandrel is Horn (C. I. No. 926), a 2-rowed 
sort which is promising at several of the jMontana stations. Trebi (C. I. No. 
936) ranks third. White Smyrna (C. I. No. 658), which is next in order, was 
grown for the entire period of nine years, its average yield being 116.7 per cent of 
the weighted mean. Another high-yielding variety was Italian (C. I. No. 914), 
a barley of the Hanna typQ. Although Coast (C. I. No. 690) and Hannchen 
(C. I. No. 531) do not make so good a showing in this table, they produced 
relatively good yields during the nine years of the experiment. As usual, Hors- 
ford (C. I. No. 877) and Black Hull-less (C. I. No. 1106) were poor-yielding sorts. 
Manchuria (C. I. No. 241) and Odessa (C. 1. No. 927) are evidently unsuited to 
growing conditions here. The table of yields shows that Meloy (C. I. No. 1176) 
gave fair returns for two years, 1920 and 1921. Flynn (C. I." No. 1311), which 
was grown in 1921, was the equal of Meloy. 
White Smyrna in general should give better results than other 2-rowed sorts 
of the Coast types. Because of its short straw, however, it is probably not so 
desirable for field culture as some of the other varieties tested. It seems quite 
evident that Archer is near the line where the Coast is equal to the 2-rowed 
varieties in yield. 
FORT COLLINS, COLO. 
The yields of barle}" varieties at the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station, 
Fort Collins, for the period from 1918 to 1921, inclusive, are shown in Table 63. 
Records of these yields were obtained through the courtesy of the Colorado 
station. Twentj'-two varieties were grown for the entire four years. Of these 
Coast (C. 1. No. 2785) produced the highest average yield, 76.9 bushels. Two 
2-rowed barleys belonging to the Hanna group, Hanna (C. I. No. 2784) and Gold
