There were in these two banks in that small town. located away out on the plains. within a hundred miles of the Colorado line. deposits from farmers of that region amounting to $310.000. showing the thrift and prosperity of that section of the country that a few years ago was considered worthless excepting for grazing purposes. The other variety of wheat the Secretary introduced was the variety known as "karkov." which is a species of winter wheat and very similar to what is known as "turkeyred wheat." It is extensively grown in my section of the country. Turkey red was a Russian variety first introduced in Kansas by the Russian immigrants. who brought the seed with them from their native land. Little attention was paid to it until the Department discovered its importance. Kharkov wheat is closely related to the Turkey red wheat. in fact. you can scarcely tell the two apart.
