Rex Wheat Found High in
Vitamin Content by USDA
That both chemical analysis and
baking tests show flour made from
Rex wheat to be o f superior quality
in many respects is shown in offi-j
cial reports o f the federal bureau of
plant industry received at Oregon
state college.
Among other qualities Rex is shown
by these tests to have the highest car.
otent content o f any western wheat
with the exception o f Jenkins club,
the favorite winter wheat o f western
Oregon. Carotene is the basic source
o f vitamin A and unless bleached out
gives flour a slightly yellowish color.
Although Rex wheat has tested
consistently high in carotene content
flour made from it bleaches white
without difficulty when desired the
report adds.
Officials o f the Eastern Oregon
wheat league concerned with recent
milling discounts against Rex wheat
are pointing to these federal reports
as indicating the superiority of Re J
flour. Rex. a hybrid originated at
the Moro branch experiment station
has become the favorite winter wheat
in most parts o f the Columbia basin
because o f Its high yields, smut re
sistance and hardiness.
Millers have discounted the wheat
after reporting difficulty with K in
certain milling processes.
In baking tests the federal bureai»
has reported Rex as unusual in that
it conhines a long “ doughball” time
usually associated with hard wheat.
