HOW ABOUT THIS?

A farmer from Rapidan, yesterday
stated to the FREE PRESS that his
neighbors are hauling their hogs to
Lake Crystal because they get from
ten to twenty-five cents a hundred
more there than they do in Mankato.
The Lake Crystal Union quotes hogs
$500 to 1910. Inquiry in this city
shows that the same is being paid
here. Mankato ought to pay as much
If not more for hogs than any of the
smaller towns around. and this might
be a good matter for the Merchants
Association to look into. The farmers
will trade where they do their selling

Growing Oats.

Mr.. T. NJ. McCarl, of lows writes:
GAS seeding time is near at hand,
some pointers on the growing Of oats
may be OF interest to your readers.
think for this section of Iowa (cen
tral) stalk ground Is the best for oat
seeding, and a two-wheel broadcast
seeder followed with a disc or eagle
claw cultivator ar the BEST implements
to use. The long shovel ctl'tivator
leaves the ground in rows or creases.
I prefer a disc to any other implement
because it, is faster and cheaper. One
man can seed and disc fifteen acres a
day. AS to the quality Of seed, this
depends very largely upon the ground.
Rich, black land requires from three
and half to four bushels; ON upland
about two and half bushels Of clean
oats is plenty. Nke.the German white
oats very much both for food and for
market. The yield is very largc, and
in good seasons it will weigh from
forty to forty two pounds per bllshel.
1 prefer sowing as early as the ground
will permit, say from the 9th Of
March to THE 10th Of April. Earlier
than the 18TH of March will not do.
Many prefer fall plowing for oats, but
L have tried it in this section and have
never been able to- get good crop.
