ALASKA WHEAT.
Idaho Experiment Station Man Writes
Concerning It.
Ily II, 13. Hyttop, AKronomldt, Unlverlty of Idaho
AKrlcultural Kxpcrlmcnt Station, Moscow.
On account of the numerous in
quiries coming into our station, wc
find it necessary to issue this press
bulletin concerning the so-called
'Alaska" wheat.
This wheat, when given ample field
space or conditions favorable to the
individual plant, has a branching head
borne on a rather tough straw at a
height of between four and five feet.
The mesh bears two and three ker
nels. When grown under close field
conditions the head tends to be much
smaller, branches less, and the mesh
bears from one to two kernels, very
seldom three. If heads grown under
these conditions alone were examined
the impression would be obtained that
this wheat never bears but two kcr
ncls to the mesh, a mistake which
some writers appear to have made.
The beards, while not numerous.
arc dark in color and considerably
stronger than we find on our common
wheats, but not so long or stiff as
those found on the durums or maca
roni wheats. The normal kernel is
light in color, short and plump, with
an unusually open groove, which al
lows tne kernel to he easily broken
in thrcshiiiK. A cross-section shows
the interior to be white and powdery,
wiui comparatively mtic norny starcn.
The shrunken kernels naturally are
n artier.
Taking everything; into considcra
tion, I am led to conclude that this
is the Egyptian or Miracle wheat, a
Poulard, and that it belongs to that
variety of the hgyptian known as
u. I dorado, which is very closely re
latcd to the seven-headed variety.
The Poulards arc peculiarly adapted
to dry regions, but never have been
grown to any extent in America
Their yields have never proved to be
of such a nature as to warrant their
extensive growth, even for stock food
And the inferiority of the flour pro'
duced from them has prevented their
use to any extent for the production
of bread.
The high yields claimed for the
wheat in this section of the country,
in some cases m uusncis per acre,
arc fabulous. One of the promoters
states that from one head of the
wheat he obtained seven pounds:
from these seven pounds he produced
1515 pounds, or a yield in round num
bers of fold, It is from these
figures that the yields noted in the
various papers, and in the circular of
the Adams-Hobc Seed Grain com
pany, of Juliactta. Idaho, arc com
puted. To show the ridiculousness of
computing yields in this way, wc de
termined in a couple of cases, the
number of grains .produced from one
seed of Little Club crown under fa
vorable conditions in our breeding
plat. Unc plant produced 1170; the
other 1800 kernels. Now, reasoning
as this seed company has done, if wc
should plant one bushel of this Little
Club to the acre, wc would obtain
1170 or 1800 bushels. This would be
a rather high yield, even for Idaho.
This year the company had 700
acres in the wheat grown on diffcrqnt
farms in this locality. A thirty-acre
tract near Moscow, which was
threshed in the middle of August,
went about thirty-two bushels per
acre. Mr. Adams stated at that time
that his best yields had been thirty
five bushels. He supplemented this
remark, however, with the statement
that his stands were poor in every
"case. Hut considering the large acre
age, the fact that several different
farmers grew the crop, and the effect
of a close stand, noted above, wc must
take this as an indication, at least, of
the yielding power of the wheat. This.
however, would not be considered an
extra large yield for this country.
The analysis of the wheat upon
which the company appears to base
its hopes amounts to practically noth
ing in determining t he bread-making
duality of the flour. It is true, that
blticstcm wheat, which analyzes higher
in protein than Little Club, makes a
better quality of flour, but it is also
true that macaroni wheat, which an
alyzes higher in protein than Blue
stem, makes a lower class of flour,
and consequently is discriminated
against by the miller. The low-grade
flours turned out from our mills usu
ally show a higher protein content
than the patent. Lorn lias consider
able protein, but the chemist seems
unable to find any gluten (that all es
sential pari of a good flour). Kven
if the chemist had found a high gluten
content in "Alaska" wheat, wc would
still not be justified in concluding
that the wheat would make a good
quality of flour. The proof of the
wheat is in the bread it will make,
promised to have a milling test madt
Upon our request the company has
soon. Until this test is made, how
ever, wc must assume that the wheat
will make no better flour under the
name of "Alaska" than it did when
known as "Wheat of Miracle,"
In spite of all the beautiful stories
which have been written concerning
the origin of this wheat, regardlcss of
t lie many wonderful things which
hnve been imagined about its quality,
and taking into consideration the im
pression as to yield, which has so
skillfully been thrown broadcast
throughout the American continent by
this seed company, who advertise their
wheat for sale at $80 per bushel, we
have yet to find any point of merit
in it which would warrant the public
paying more for "Alaska" wheat than
the prevailing market price of our
common varieties.
