Abstract
THE choice of a good variety of cereal may make a difference of more than twenty per cent in a farmer's returns, and yet the crop will cost him no more to grow. For this reason the National Institute of Agricultural Botany, Cambridge, has issued a number of recommendations, based on careful trials at a number of stations, as to varieties of cereals suitable for autumn sowing. These do not necessarily apply to the north of England, but may be accepted with confidence in other districts.
