Oats-Change of Seed.

Agrlcul'urist has the following remarks
on the propriety OF changing seed oate

culture OF U pper Canada, imported t,om
Aberdeen, III Scotland, several varieties Of
oats that are much esteemed in the Brit.

AZ lbs. per bushei They consisted Of
tie Potato, HUpetoun, Angus, B.rhp,
Poland, ard tile Back and White Tsrts.
rian The seed WAS sowu by different
persons on various soils, and the result
WAS gradual deterioration in quality
year bv year. These oates, however,
were generally heavier than the ordinary
varieties cultivated in this country, tor
three or four years, when they Seem TO
have reached their minimum Of weight.
The mode Of preparing the land, and the
character Of The season, of course, affect
! considerably the quantity and quality Of
The grain. In Upper Canada our sum
mers are generally too bot and dry iCr
