Garnet wheat : new promising variety of early maturing spring wheat / by L.H. Newman and A.G.O. Whiteside.: A12-2/83-1927E-PDF

"Among the numerous new varieties of cereals originated and developed by the Cereal Division of the Dominion Experimental Farm, Ottawa, the variety of spring wheat known as Garnet is receiving the greatest attention at the present moment. Probably no variety within recent times has been more widely discussed or more extensively investigated, especially during the past year or two, than this variety. ... A true and unbiased statement of what actually is known regarding the performance and quality of Garnet in comparison with other varieties in widely scattered districts should be useful in indicating the place which this variety may be entitled to occupy among those now being propagated or under investigation. Such a statement is attempted in the present bulletin"--Foreword, p. [2].
