The average of all the varieties is 11.2 tons of total ciop, 
containing 3.09 tons of dry matter. Those varieties that 
ripened, averaged thirty-five bushels of shelled coin pei acie. 
It is evident on the whole, that the dent coins 'c vie 
more productive than the Hint, in total crop, m dry niattei, 
and in shelled corn. When a comparison is made between 
the small and large kinds of each, the difference is not so 
great. The large, late Hint corns are, evidently, not so well 
adapted to Colorado conditions as the smaller and eailiei 
kinds, but the choice among the dents is not so apparent. 
Most of them have done well and "some of them very well. 
Any corn that produces four tons of dry matter per acre has 
made an excellent growth. According to the figures given 
above the small dent corns average a tritie more dry mattei 
per acre tliap the large and later varieties. 1 here has always 
been a dispute, among farmers as to whether this dry-mattei 
from mature and immature corn had an equal feeding value,
