apply ammoniated fertilizers on
fall sown oats is March. The
following formula will be about
right Tor broadcasiing i'll March,
and narrowing in with smooth
ing harrow. That cultivates
the oats and smooths the land
for the reaper:
200 pounds IA per cent acid.
800 pounds kainit.
400 pounds nitrate Of soda.
If you wish an ordinary crop
sow 200 to $50 pounds of the
above. If you are working for
large one apply 500 pounds.
If a 4 inch plow is used to
open the furrow the rows will be
about II inches apart. That is
better on thin land. We gener-
ally use, IA small 5-inch shovel.
On thin land five pecks is enough
tor an acre. On better land, it
may be safe to plant a little
more. ANY ordinary hand will
soon get the "hang" OF using
the drill. Greatest care should
be used to run the rows at the
right distance so that one fur
row will not fill the preceding
one. There is no instance re-
corded in this State Or Georgia
showing that oats planted this
way have been killed by cold.
A few days ago farmer from
Gaffney, 5. c., said lie wished
to plant oats with the drill be.
tween his cotton rows. He was
informed that it could not be
done. While one furrow might
be made in the middl=, the 9TH
er would be impossible as they
would have to be run close to
the cotton stalks. The drill can
be used only on well-prep red
land. 1t is the only safe way to
make an oat crop in this section
Of the country.

there will be nearly 1000 more
blue jackets sent to Cuba. AS

the Norfolk navy yard, and the
converted cruiser Prairie, which
is at Boston. The Prairie will
carry marines from Portsmouth,

Sowing Oats.
Progressive Farmer

Mr. ID M. stanton, proprietor
of the Maple Grove Truck Farm,
La Grange, N. G., has asked
some questions about sowing or
planting oats in the open furrow.
AS he is reader of The Pro-
gres,ive Farmer. an answer
through its columns may reach
many others in need OF iniorma-
ton. | find that The Progress
sive Farmer is carefully read
wherever it goes,
Next year horse and cow food
will be in great demand. AL
though the growth OF grass, pea
vines and folder have been lux
uriant, there has been no wealth
er favorable for saving them up
to date. Much fodder has been
lost in the Calolinas. Thousands
of bales OF hay are now coming
in every week from other States.
1t may be stated as a certainty
that the majority OF farmers
will be scarce o! forage next
spring. They can meet the con
dition by sowing rich lots in
rye at once. There is no bet
ter butter grown in the South.
But the main dependence should
be on the oat crop. That gives
work animals a well balanced
ration. II planted before the
10th Of October they will be
ready for feed by the 25th of
May.
Another statement may be
helpful to the reader of The
Progressive Farmer. Some of
the advertisements Of the won
deriul oat crops raised North
and West are enough to induce
farmers to send for the seed so
as to make 60 to 90 bushels to
the acre. Don't DO that. You
will be wasting your time and
money. b. r. Pollard, a pro-
gressive farmer of this county,
bought some very promising oats
with big name. He tried them.
and while they made a fair crop
he will SOW no more. He will
stick to the Appler and Red
Rust Proof. In buying seed get
such as are raised on the South
side Of the Southern Railway. or
only few miles North Of it.
If you wish grain, with not a
great abundance Of straw, SOW
the two varieties mentioned
above. The writer prefers The
Appler. When re-cleared they
will weigh 35 to So pounds to
the bushel, and mules and Cat
tie will eat all the straw. II
you wish forage SOW the late tall
varietieS-such as the Grazing,
the Turf, and the Virginia
Grays.
Preparation is half the labor
or more in planting oats. Break
the ground thoroughly, bursting
up two or three inches of the un.
broken clay. Harrow wei. Put
it in fine condition. Then any
time from September goth to
December Goth put the oats in
