1 Emmer and spelt were not grown in 1913. 
2 Stella Selection G grown from 1910 to 1912, inclusive. 
3 Banner Selection A in 1906 and 1907; Selection B, 1908 to 1912, inclusive; and Selection M in 1914. 
RESULTS AT NAPPAN, NOVA SCOTIA. 
Three varieties each of emmer and spelt have been grown at Nap- 
pan, Nova Scotia. The Red spelt slightly outyielded the White 
Spring spelt, as well as all varieties of emmer. Both emmer and 
spelt averaged considerably less than barley and oats. The data, 
taken from the annual reports of the Dominion cerealist (39 and 41), 
are shown in Table 22.
