Abstract
Description
The article addresses the rapid increase of barley and spring wheat in North Dakota. The Agricultural Experiment Station, North Dakota State University, could at this time, increase one
bushel of an experimental barley (potential variety) within the United States to 150,000 bushels (150,000 times) in one year or 7,500,000 times in 15 months in four crops. A few years prior this would have required three or more cropping seasons in North Dakota. In more recent years it was accomplished in two cropping
seasons by using an Arizona increase during the winter months.
