CORDOVA GIVES GREATER YIELDS— Wintex (left) and Cordova barley are pic-
tured growing in field plot trials at the Denton Agriculture Experiment Station. In
addition to being mildew-resistant, the Cordova averages approximately..one pound
more per bushel in test weight and has a smooth awn, in contrast to the rough, saw-
toothed awns of Cordova.

Perhaps no other people in his-

that the only way that we can ef-

the agronomist said. He pointed
out that as a livestock pasture

is nearly as good as that of corn.
