Tle datal obtained from these tests have been published by the Experiment Station as Bulletin 207, entitled "Variety Tests with Corn." The information enables the agro nomy division ,to give the farmers of the state reliable alvice regarding the merits of the different varieties, and it is hoped to bring about the gradual elimination from the fields ol the state ol a latrge number of inferior varieties. Comparative yields in 1920, for e Xamlenj)c -.howed at wide differentee in production per acre of the different varieties, the highest yielding Variety - At Clemson College making 62.2 bushels per acre, the lowest :37.5 bush els. The dilference of 25.1 bushels between the highest and low 'st yiebling varieties, lue entirely to good seed of a superior variety, ill ustrates the striking imtjortance of using seed of the best varieties. The hotletin contains a number of tables showing comparative yields with dlata as to weight of ear of corn, percent of grain, weight of grain, bushels per acre, etc., and also tables showing average yields for certain per'iods5 of years, the physical characteristics of varieties the sour' ees of seed used, and the ra in fal1 at the three stations. hBulletin 207 is now ready r dis tribut ion atnd may he had upon( a ppli. eation.
