M2 MINERAL POINT WISCONSIN, THURSDAY MORNING. AUGUST H. B7o

NORWAY OARS. - Mr.. JoHN J.
DAVIS, of the town of Linden, has shown
us sampies-on stem and shelled out-oi
oats raised on his place, side by side, this
summer; one raised from the Ram,dcll
Norway SEED, which he purchased at s. VI
per bushel and che other from seed pro.
inced on his own farm. After careful ey.
animation we are unable to discover the
least difference between the samples beror,
JUS, AND Mr. DAVIS assures us that the weld
per acre is about the salae from each kind.
The seed of Mr.. DAVIS own raising has a
history not materially dssimilar to tha,
given ct the Norway cats, as follows -
Some twelve years ago, as will be remem.
oered, the oats crop in this vicinity was
almost II total failure, so much 20 indeed,
that many fields were uncut That season
Mr. DAVIS, on looking over his oats field.
noticed here and there a few stalks staudipo
higher than the rest, with large heads well
hIled with plump gain. All these he had
carefully gathered and shelcd cut, pro
ducing about two quarts Of fac black oat.
ihlS he saved and planted the next wear,
aAd the product of that the suecee,.ius
year, aud 20 on until he had sufficient to
plant five acres when he iouni the WELD
to be don51c ataf Of d,y ottsy. From thai
time he has cultivated this oats, and nr.
nlshed his neighbors with seed VI srdinar,
prices. In fact, the variety is known To
many IN his own vicinity as Davis Oats, "
and isnoted for its protpctiycuess, and ex.
traordnary weight--ayeragiug forty pounds
per bushel.
hr, DAVIS is an old, well knowa farmer
of Iowa County, whose word is conclusive
testimony on all qnestiors with which he
is acquainted Besides, NATHAN OLYsTaAp,
Of Cottage Inn, and many Athcg hr-t.cIass
fUmers of this vicinity endorse this state.
ment. Our farmer readers viii have no
more occasion to pay five dollars per busheI
for Norway oats. lialf a score OF farmers
who have the Davis Oats" will furnish
seed equally good, equally productive and
so nearly like the Norway that they
cannot possibly distinguish difference. 49,
Samples Of the two varieties can be Seen
at this Office, both sheIled and on the stem
