Growing Oats in Colorado.

The soil and climate of Colorado
are particularly adapted to the
growing of oats. The soil is ex-
cessively rich in mineral matter,
and the high altitude makes cool
summers and "a slow, long maturing
season. Irrigation furnishes just
the amount of water required at
Just the time needed to make the
highest yield and the best quality.
The average yield on good irri-
gated farms is about 10 bushels per
acre. Much larger crops are COM
mon.
On the Colorado Agricultural
College farm. in 1908, the best
varieties yielded 95 to 81 bushels
per acre.
In Delta county. sol bushels
were harvested from five acres. In
Gunnison county, 40 bushels were
raised on an acre. In Garfield
county, l64 bushels, by measure,
per acre, were harvested from a
large field. Almost every county
can report large yields.
In Grand county, at $500 feet
elevation, oats stood 81 feet in
height, with long, well filled heads
They had not been irrigated. They
were cut for hay.
Colorado oats are unsurpassed in
quality. The legal weight is 32
pounds per bushel, but the actual
weight is usually from 3S to As
pounds per struck bushel. Oats
from well-bred seed have Is per
cent. and upwards of meat, and %
per cent. and less of hull.
The U. s. Department of Agri-
culture reports that in 1907, $4,000
acres of oats were raised i'll Colo
-ado. The average yield per acre
was as follows:
The La Jara chronicle., 1908-11-27

Colorado leads all the principal
oat-growing states in yield and farm
value per acre.
Oats in the irrigated sections of
Colorado is paying crop. They
sell at a good price in all part, of
the state, and in the high mountain
valley, where the largest yields are
obtained, the growers often receive
81 per hundred pounds. With the
low cost of production this makes
good return where rs to 100
bushels per acre are produced.
