Rather conflicting results were ob- tained with the Ghirka wheat at the different stations. The prm- cipal agreement in the tests was the outstanding yield of the Kubanka, surpassing the other varieties of wheat at Williston, Brookings, Highmore, and NeweU, and equaling the yields of the Haynes and Ghirka Spring for first place at Moccasin and ^-J^^- ^i/^ff^se y/£ld //v ickmson, respect- ively. The Ghirka outyielded the other varieties at Edgeley, but, on the other hand, gave the lowest yield at Brookings, Highmore, and New- ell. The exception- ally low yield of the Ghirka at Highmore and Brookings was due, in part at least, to rust. The average yield at the seven stations showed Ku- banka first, Rysting- Glyndon second, Haynes third, and Ghirka fourth. The season of 1909 was unusually favor- able at all the sta- tions. Kubanka durum wheat gave the highest yields at Moc- casin, Williston, Dick- inson, Edgeley, and Newell. The Ghirka led at Brookings and Highmore, ranked second at Moccasin, tliird at Williston, and fourth at Dickinson, Edgeley, and Newell. Under the humid conditions of this year rust again caused a n^duction in the yield of the Ghirka. For all stations the Kubanka ranked first, Ghirka second, Haynes third, and Kysting-Glyndon fonrlii. The dry season of J910 n-duccd the yields at all stations, and the results were entirely different from those obtained in previous I I ' I â &
