Start April 35.

In almost every portion of the state, the highway workers, organized into approximately 75 companies and under the direction of about two-score highway contractors, already have started the huge task of preparing their machinery for the summer's paving work.

Schumacher has developed a grain that in the field resembles barley, with the color of rye, the flavor of oats and a kernel shaped like a wheat grain. Schumacher calls it barley, but says it actually has no barley in its composition.

He developed the grain by conducting a hand pollinated cross between blue stem wheat and giant oats, and then by crossing the hybrid thus obtained with blue steam wheat again. This resulted, Schumacher said, in n. grain with a large meat and a thin hull, maturing in 00 days. Last year he obtained 3S bushels to the acre, each bushel weighing 68 pounds. He is going- to try to grow two crops of the hybrid grain on the same field this season.

He plans to put the "barley" in on the stubble by following the binder with tiki drill. Some of his last year's crop has been submitted to agricultural stu- rlents at Belle Plaine high school to sxperiment on its value as an early hog feed.
