KUBANKA WHEAT IS, PRAISED BY COUNTY FARMERS (By G. W. GUSTAFSON, Co. Agent.) | From a’ questionndire sent to the | farmers of Burleigh couhty who rais- ed Kubanka wheat this year, it is found that this variety of fvheat has ,outyieJded all other kinds of wheat wherever it was raised from three to twelve bushels to the acre. Only in one’ of two cases did Kubanka wheat yield less than the‘other com- mon macaroni. These farmers are of the opinion that Kubanka is the best yariety of Durdm wheat for Burleigh county farm conditions. Some of them deciare that they will raise nothing jelse but this wheat in 1921. These farmers have several thousand bushels of Kubanka wheat for sale as seed wheat. Farmers in Burleigh county who_wish to secure some of this wheat | , or record, “HIS.
