Vtrietie of Wheat.
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,

""'-'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.
