(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) A hard red spring wheat that Is re- sistant to the principal forms of black stem rust has been developed in North Dakota by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture and the North Dakota agricultural experiment sta- tion. This wheat was first intrdouced from Russia in 1008 by Prof. H L. Bolley, and is now known as Kota. About 6,000 acres of Kota wheat were grown in 1022, and much more this year, The particular virtue of Kota wheat is Its resistance to the black stem rust which Is general throughout the hard Its rust re ter the great rust epidemic of 1916, It Is also fairly resistant to drought and outylelds Marquis in North Da- kota, averaging nearly three bush- els more per acre during the past five years, It Is a bearded wheat which ripens about as early as Marquis. In milling and baking experiments con- ducted independently by the Depart ment of Agriculture and the North has shown results nearly equal those obtained with Marquis Experiments with Kota wheat have been carried on in a number of other states as well as In North Dakota, and the wheat was found best adapt- | ed to the district where durnm wheat | is extensively grown, Kota wheat could replace much of the durum wheat now | grown In eastern North Dakota and | South Dakota with profit to both the | hard red spring and the durum wheat | industries, department workers helleve, | This variety Is recommended for | North Dakota and adjacent portions | to | o— Every Dairyman Should Know Profitable Cows “Every owner of dairy cows shouide cost of feed,” says A.
