Among the factors which must be taken into consideration is yielding iability. Other things being equal, a _ A“- variety of strain which will give a five to ten per cent greater yield is pre- ferable to a lower yielding sort. The matter of 'purity is important, for not only does this usually cause more uni- form performance in the field, but re- sults in a product which better fills developed and uniform, wk! “- v v In addition to these, the matter of' weeds must be emphasized.

Profitable returns from grain crops can only be realized after the best efforts and thought have been given to the selection of the seed used and the preparation of the soil on which it is sown. Therefore, why use poo: seed? ' Many varieties and strains of grain have been tested out at our agriculâ€" tural colleges and experimental farms and stations, suflicient at least to give one a fair idea of those varieties best suited to the average conditions in any one province. Consequently, the first move should be to obtain, either from bulletins or by writing the near- est college or experimental farm, in- formation as to varieties and as to where they may be procured. II" the varieties named are those already grown, make , sure that the quantity will be sufficient when properly clean- ed, to sow the area required for 1929. In oats, there are two varieties of about equal value for average condi- tions, namely, Victory and Banner. The average yield for six years at the 5 Dominion Experimental Farm at Nap- pan for these two varieties is 72.93 and L 70.95 bushels per acre respectively. 5 Alaska oats are also recommended in A iod of four . years. â€"» ~- .

In six-rowed varieties, O.‘ A. C. No.‘ 21 has an aver- age yield of 43.31 and is a variety worth growing. ‘ _ In wheat, White Russian and Early Red Fife have given the best yields for the beardless varieties, giving‘ an aver- age yield for six years of 31 bushels respectively.

Authorities agree that seed treatment is beneficial and while this operation is occasionally overlooked. the satis- factory experience of a few in so do- ing must not be accepted as a guide named gives excellent . satisfaction, commercial formalin to 121/: gallons of. water.
