to soil and climatic conditions, and
seconditly, to test new valrieties and
varieties which have made exception
ally good shoving in other states.
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

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'
