The Oats Question entirely Settled

From this time henceforth, till the
crack of doom, no one need try to get
ahead of the large bunch of Oats that
now lies upon our table. 1t comes to us
from Mr. Daniel QUITS who lives, and
exults in the Oat culture, near ,Dorn's
Mills. These are Red Oats; and the
heads are 8 feet .long--full and heavy.
We speak honestly. The prettiest thing
in the way of grain we'have ever seen
Some three million aspiring agricultu-
rists,+ more or less, are beseechirg sns
frantically for the bunch-for seed. We
are quite embarrassed. At all events,
however, we shall save one seed for our
FGd.s. u cdetsss Feely Lake, and oae for
Dir: James Devore, and one for MI. El-
bert Devore, and one for our neighbor
Mr.. Lebeschultz. And they may con-
slider themselves very fortunate at that!
Remember that it is Mr.. Daniel Qnzts
who brings the Oats Question. to its'final
climax. From the time we can remem-
ber, the Ouztses have been prodigious on
.grsin. ~ S;'
