"Garnet wheat, an early-maturing variety of hard red spring wheat produced and developed by the Cereal Division of the Experimental Farms Branch, Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, was first made available to Canadian farmers for testing in field areas in the spring of 1926. In 1927 the department published a bulletin in which an attempt was made to submit an unbiased statement of the field performance as well as of the milling and baking qualities of this wheat compared with Marquis and other varieties investigated up to that time. ... the question now to be settled may be stated as follows: Should Garnet be allowed to go into our highest grades of Manitoba Northern wheat without restriction of any kind, or would it be preferable to setup at least one or two separate grades for the accommodation of this variety or continue to handle it as at present?. In order to obtain further information in connection with all aspects of this important question, the Dominion Departmentof Agriculture decided to ship several thousand bushels of Garnet wheat to Great Britain and the Continent in order that both milling and baking tests might be made on a large scale. ... It was also decided to forward a shipment of 250 bushels of Garnet and 250 bushels of Manitoba of the same grade to the State Testing Mill at Minneapolis, in order to obtain further information regarding the relative milling behaviour of Garnet and of Garnet mixed with ordinary Manitoba Northern, when ground together under Northern American conditions"--Foreword, p.
