About 65 varieties of soft red winter wheats Are grown. Many 
of these varieties have not been milled and baked, but of several of 
them less than five samples have been tested and are therefore not 
included in this bulletin. Fifteen of the varieties have been suffi- 
ciently tested to warrant presenting the results here. The data are 
presented in Table 56, and the States from which the samples were 
obtained are named in Table 57. Most of the samples of these 
varieties were obtained from commercial sources. The few samples 
obtained from experiment stations were not grown in comparison 
with a standard variety of the class. It is not possible, therefore, to 
compare samples of any of the varieties in this class with a standard 
or leading variety. The only milling and baking data available 
from which the respective quality of the various varieties may be 
judged are, therefore, the results of the total number of samples 
tested. As with previous classes, the varieties are discussed sepa- 
rately and in alphabetical order. Illustrations showing the relative 
differences in the quality of bread made from some of the principal 
varieties of this class are found in Plate IV.

varieties grown during the seven years from 1915 to 1921, inclusive.

1 This column contains the maximum number of samples used for each variety. In some instances, 
particularly for the factors of loaf color anu ash, the results given represent the average of a fewer number 
of samples for the reason that complete data on all the samples were not available. The number of samples 
used for the various factors is given in Figures Nos. 12 to 23, inclusive. , 
2 Averages of all soft red winter wheat samples on which tests were made, including the varietal samples 
shown above.
