ONE KIND OF BARLEY

The Benefit of Establishing the Variety Beet Adapted to Boil and Climate.

The barley crop Is grown for two chief purposes, namely, feeding and malting. For feeding, the grades and market price are based largely on the physical qualities of cleaness and soundness. For brewing purposes, however, the trade requires also uniformity of germination and endosperm reduction. Different varieties ehow marked differences in the rapidity and efficiency of germination and consequent decomposition of the starch endosperm. These properties depend very largely on the shape and size of the kernel. Two varieties may have the same malting ability in the end, that is, the power to produce the same quantities of digested starch to the pound of original matter, and yet be of much decreased value when mixed, due to the different times required for complete endosperm reduction and the necessity of waiting for the slower one. If such is the case with different varieties having the same ultimate malting efficiency, how much more is it true where one of the varleties in. a mixture has a low efficiency due to the undesirable shape of the kernels. Such admixture may result from individual carelessness on a single farm and yet the mixed seed contaminate the purer products of the entire community at the elevator. Only community action can insure safety. It is very important to barley growers, therefore, to produce not only a good variety for the purpose intended, but also only a single variety In a given locality in order that the community product may be pure and uni-, form and thus be able to command the highest price paid. The extensive and almost exclusive growing of the Oderbrucker variety In Wisconsin by the members of the Wisconsin experimental association is an excellent illustration of organized co-operative effort in b'. -at cf a single profitable variety «| a ttftfccrop.

"ONE VARIETY BEST.

There are many advantages to bo derived from growing a single variety cf a given cereal in any particular community. There are climatic and economic factors which may make it desirable or even necessary to grow raore than one variety of a ce.eal, as, for instance, a spring and a winter wheat, on a single arm. This phase may be neglected here in order to place heavy emphasis on the opposite aspect. One of the commonest observations is the mixture of varieties. These mixtures greatly reduce the varne of the crop for seed purposes, even if they do not cause a lowering of the market grade. I bey entail loss through non uniformity in ripening and differences in length and strength of straw, disease-resistance, adaptability to soil types and climatic conditions, and other similar characters.

Two points shouU be held in mind. First, mixtures are fundamentally v. roug. Most growers will not be able to distinguish between the mixtures which may not cause loss and those which will. Secondly, no investigator can predetermine when, in an apparently harmless and profitable mixture one variety shall be taken and another left. Only in purity is there safety. Another advantage of pure varieties is the better yield which usually results if the proper variety is The man or the community may not receive a better price tor the pure seed but would be profited in any case by the increased yield. It Bhould not be forgotten that the neighborhood separator is a powerful factor in mixing varieties where many are grown. It seems scarcely necessary to mention the mixtures of wheat and barxey or oats and barley, which are difficult to separate and objectionable on the market. Such should be avoided at any time. —Carleton R. Ball.

A ROAD LAW.

The Tice road law of Illinois is one to be studied by every state whose roads are in as bad a condition as those in Illinois. It Is certainly a fundamental step. Good roads are one of the main factors to be considered In th| plan of building up any community. With all of the present discussion of marketing conditions we might well include the cost of marketing since the following Is true'of one of the greatest of our grain states: “Less than 10 per cent of these roadways are improved, and for one-third of the year the unimproved roads in this state are in many extensive districts practically impassable and unfitted for use by the farmers of the state.” i

MODEL FARM HOUSES.

The United States Deparement of Agriculture has issued the ftot of a series of plans for farm houses, which will enable the farmers to construct Inexpensive and more convenient homes. The farm house is the most important building on the farm, and money well spent in the proper planning and building will never be regretted. A very brief survey of the living conditions in almost any rural community will convlnoe anyone that this is an important step. The better living part of the County Agent’s work is bound to receive more aad more attention.
