An inspection of the table will also show that under the conditions — 
of the last season late planting was not only advantageous to the vege- 
tation of the plants, but also to the winter survival. 
We will also call attention to the fact that the much-vaunted Black 
Bearded Centennial wheat gave the smaliest percentage of vegetation 
and the smallest number that survived the winter, and in our last 
year’s trial as a spring wheat we also met with failure. 
Numbers eleven and twelve, and four and five, are duplicates of two 
varieties, but we are unable to assign the duplicates to their proper 
numbers. If, as we suspect, number four and number eleven are 
duplicates, as also number five and number twelve, we note that thirty- 
three per cent of the early planted number four, and seventy-two per 
cent of the late planted number eleven vegetated, while forty-seven per 
cent of the early planted number five, and ninety-eight per cent of the 
late planted number twelve, vegetated. In survivals we note seventy- 
five per cent of the early-planted number four, and ninety-five per cent 
of the late planted number eleven, sixty per cent of the early planted 
number five, and eighty-two per cent of the Jate planted number twelve. 
We also note on averages that of the seven samples planted September 
19, forty-five per cent survived. Of the three samples planted September 
23-30th, forty-seven per cent survived, and of the two samples planted 
October 3, eighty-seven per cent survived.

BARLEY, 
- April 23 and 24 a number of varieties of barley were planted, in 
order to study the prolificacy under equivalent conditions. The drills 
or rows were two feet apart, thirty-three feet long, and about twelve 
kernels planted per foot. 
The yield per row was as below : 
VARIETY. Pounds of screened grain.
