Bluestem Wheat Data relative to the time and source of introduction of Bluestem Wheat into the Northern Great Plains and Canada are very indefinite. However, like Fife Wheat, it was not firmly established as a profitable crop until 1870, coincident with the intro- duction of the purifier and roller mill. It is a very popular hard spring Wheat grown throughout the Northwest and in some lo- calities yielding much higher than Fife. It is slightly inferior to Fife as a bread Wheat but under favorable conditions the quality of the flour is practically the same. It grows somewhat taller, is reasonably drought resistant, seldom lodges, but requires from 3 to 10 days longer to mature. Heads are beardless, glumes or outer covering v/hite and velvety. Kernels are dark red with wide out-curving, grooves, and somewhat larger but slightly softer than those of the Fife. v-V'1%. rpADE MARK REG U 4 PAT OFF Dickinson Brands are the Best 79 Th* Albert I)ikiii!<on Co., Chicago—Minneapolis*.
