Rescue is a new hand red spring wheat variety from the Dominion Experimental Station at Swift Current Saskatchewan. In five years of testing, Rescue averaged only seven percent stem cut by sawfly versus seventy two percent for Apex, performing best under severe infestations in the Western Canada sawfly area. It yields better than standards in sawfly conditions but under non infestations fares worse, has intermediate maturity between Thatcher and Marquis, resists stem rust yet is susceptible to leaf rust and bunt and root rot, and is not equal to Marquis in baking quality. Seed supplies have been produced for distribution and inquiries should be sent to Swift Current.
