Lake Co., Jan. 31st, 187C, Ed, Parmgii: In tlicl.ist nutiibor of your v.ilunblo paper I jjirye to the for mers of Oregon my jiraciicnl f.xppri ence, ns an agriculturist, on what depth to plotv for wheat, and the atzo of plows lo do H with. In this I will give thorn my long experience and observations of the best varieties of wheat to raise in Oregon and tho quality of soil best adapted for each variety. This is beat found out by etose observation while growing, until ripe and thrashed. f for I really behove that no farmer can be a very successful one without ho is a good observer, not of cereals alone,, but of all tho best kinds of machinery, wagons, plows, drilts,, cultivators, and seed sowers, and also- of all tho klnd of stock-he raises on tho farm. The best variety or spring whetti I have observed, to rai.te in Oregon, is the white Chllo club, nnd I consider it to bo the finest spring wheat that h8 over been raised In this State. It thrashes easier, yields as-much or mora per acre, and makes bettor Hour than any other variety grown. If drilled in which I consider the beat;, method, uso ono bushel and three pecks per acre; t IF towed broadcast, two bushels; but it should never bo sown on wet or very damp laud, cs on such it will not till as well as other varieties; but does much better on fern lands than any other, and in every instanco should bo sown on high dry land; and should if possi ble bo sown or put in between New 'Years and tho middlo of March; later than that it dees not fill as well ns some others, Tj,c noxt lje3t variety of spring w),wU x woul(, ri,L.oimnon(l to raiS)0 ls ,, . , , . , , ,, called red cliuir, known by tlio name of ,..,,, ... ... llttle -,lub th's t,0GS ot SW as tall as the Olliie, neither is tllO grtlill US swhite and large, but weighs n little f heavier to tho bushel, makes good Hour ex-.'and yields well, and will fill better on ('i0W) dp ground than Chile, and if """, "" ' "" l' ittcve; broaUcast,,one and tlireo pecks, r At the present theso two varieties ''should bo tlio only two raised on dry 'bind. Thav vield moro to tho acre. j and matQ bettor Hour than Atly Other (; ,,,unnt s nm,m ,.,. , ,.,.,, ?,!i ,, u ""'" ...i.utj- inc ... ""'-'i uio eimu is reii, uui 1110 grain iIs wl,itei this is the best and only vn- rioty under my notice that will fill on wet land. I have raised it on low, wet land, side by side with the other varie ties, where it would bo well filled and the others would not havo a singlo grtiin iu the heads. It grinds more ilitity, and dotts not make as good flour ;is tho other two varieties;. Uio straw is softer and falls down sooner when ripe. Drill a bushel and a half per acre. There are sovoral other kinds of spring; wheat I could mention,, that I have tried, sent from Washington, but thoy will not do in Oregon as- well as thoic- abovo mentioned. At presont thero aro only three varie ties of winter wheat in Oregon, under my notico, that are worth raising. Tho best vartyty for all purposes Is named tho old common whito; it yields moro to the aero than any other, nnd is well adapted to tho climnto antl to all dry soils, and makes very good flour. This variety will do well put in from tho middlo of October to tho middle of Fobruary. Tho second variety is tho whito velvet, and at tlio presont tlmo is the finest wcoat in Oregon. Tho writor took tho first proiuium with this at tho last State Fnlr. It is tho largest whito wheat In Oregon, makes splendid flour but does not yield so well to tlio acre as common. This variety should bo drill ed in from tho first of October to tho first of Docomber. My third variety is called tho whito horse. It is a beautiful wheat, grinds soft and makes excellent flour, but does not yield per aero with tlio other two. It was first brought into Lano county by two young men from Eng land and for ton years was raised qulto extensively, but on account of its rath er light yield was finally disponsod with. It required two bushels per aero, broadcast and with tho drill ono bushel and tlireo pecks. Now. Air. liiutor. ns no ono nas over written in your paper on tho subject of raising wneat, nuu it oeing mo main thing lor export, and at present is bringing moro money or wealth into Oregon than nil othor productions to gother, I thought tho subject n good ono, nud ouo that would interest somo of tho farmers of Oregon nnd might bo tho means of adding n fow dollars in tholr pockets in tho futuro, aud If so, I should bo highly pleased and well paid. I think I havo given a plain and full description of tho beat varieties, and tho quantity to tho acre, &c. My noxt will bo on tlio beit varieties of barley, oaj, and gra.v;, to nKa in Oregon.
