A chance field cross, similar to Darso, discovered at Enid, 
Oklahoma, in 1912. Produces consistently high yields of grain 
and forage. Adapted to very heavy clay soils in regions of 
high humidity. May be planted early or late; resistant to 
lodging and to bird damage. Grown as bundle feed, often as 
ensilage, and will stand for combine harvest. Stems stout, 
juicy, slightly sweet, very leafy, leaves very broad. Seedheads 
not so large as Darso; seed brownish, waxy, non-shattering.

One of the white seed varieties, which command higher prices 
on the grain market. An early, uniform-maturing, drought and 
insect resisting selection from original standard Blackhull 
Kafir, developed by the Texas Agricultural Experiment Sta- 
tion and distributed in 1924. Very popular for its wide adapt- 
ability and high yields of grain and forage. Used for bundle 
and dry ground feed. Stems leafy, somewhat stout, resistant 
to lodging, slightly juicy but not sweet; seedheads erect, long, 
compact; seed of medium size, white, not hard but some- 
what brittle; of very high feed value.
