and that this is fairly constant from year to year and is not merely an environmental relation. Certain exceptions occur, but on the whole, one may expect an increase in yield of grain with a corresponding increase in yield of straw. The ratio of straw to grain is also show11 to be fairly constant from year to year. Certain strains produced almost a pound of grain for every pound of straw while others required nearly two pounds of straw to produce a pound of grain. While a heavy yield of straw was found to be correlated with a heavy yield of grain it was in turn correlated with a small amount of meat. *
