the rest of my wheat. We cleaned up the old barn floor and spread the binder canvas down and Dad. thrashed it with a flail. It didn't take nearly so long and we were surprised at how clean we got it. We got the last one done after dinner and I fuilled up the report. I found the Impwerial Amber was the best, Banalka next but with soft straw American Banner next and our own Common mixed poorest as far as yield in lbs. went but it wasn't a good test as the flats never did well and I am going to try it again. Our wheat had quite a little ball smut in it but we didn't see any in what came from Guelph, it was all treated.
