cornland, and only 1 to 2 per cent was observed on that from the 
later seedings. As shown in Table 14, the bushel weight of the 
wheat from the earliest seeding on fallow was slightly heavier than 
that of the wheat from the plats sown on the same date on cornland, 
whereas from the latest seeding the wheat grown on cornland had 
the heavier bushel weight. Except from the September 16 seeding, 
the yields of grain on fallowed land were considerably in excess of 
the yields on cornland. The yields of straw from the wheat on fallow 
in all cases greatly exceeded those from the wheat on cornland, in 
some cases being more than double.
