Table IX gives the results of milling and baking tests of two samples of spring wheat obtained by the writer from farmers' gran- aries. Each sample contained a large amount of wild-vetch seed and represented the crops as grown. Two kinds, or species, of wild-vetch seed were found in these sam- ples. The bulk of the seed was narrow- leaved vetch (Vicia angustifolia), and the remainder was the hairy-pod vetch (Vicia Tiirsuta). A comparison is given of the results of tests of wheat containing wild-vetch seed, with the results of tests of the same lot of wheat from which the vetch seed was removed by hand picking. One of the samples contained per cent and the other per cent of wild-vetch seed after being cleaned and scoured with the mill machinery. The fact that the mill cleaners failed to remove the vetch seed showTs that this is practically an inseparable impurity. In fact, the grain buyer for the mill in the locality where this wheat was grown refused to purchase this wheat, which contained such a large amount of wild-vetch seed, claiming that it could not be removed from the grain and that it would be a ri
