In 1907, 1908, and 1909 the wheat was grown on new land which 
had been broken and backset the previous season. In succeeding 
years this crop usually followed potatoes, though some of the vari- 
eties were grown after corn in 1910 and 1911. The seed has ordi- 
narily been sown about April 15; in 1910, however, the date of seed- 
ing was March 29. Except in 1911, when about half the varieties 
were sown March 25 and the remainder about a month later, all 
varieties have been sown on the same date. In 1907 the common 
wheat was drilled at the rate of 5 pecks and the durum varieties at 
the rate of 6 pecks to the acre. These rates have been reduced gradu- 
ally, until in 1913 all varieties were sown at the rate of 50 pounds 
(34 pecks) to the acre. The size of the plats has usually been one- 
tenth or one-eleventh of an acre.
