that certain firms who handle
the so-called rust-proof seed oats
were sending ont circulars pro.

Grayson Co. Texas seed oats.
Two years in succession was
forced to plant the Texas oats.
The first year the crop was not
threshed so | could not make
accurate measure of the yield,
but it was practically nothing.
The second crop, one hundred
acres, was planted with Texas
oats bought from this reliable
house, planted in November and
December. The yield from this
100 acres, threshed and weigh
ed, was about 1926 bushels, by
measure about twice that. This
same land the following year,
planted in the oats which | now
have, yielded, threshed and
weighed, after three weeks of
wind and rain storms of the last
harvest, 200 bushels and the
loss must have been more than
two bushels to the acre. Two
of my farmer friends, a firm
from Wilkinson Co.. two years
ago planted 40 acres of these
same Texas oats and while |
threshed the crop, l forget the
yield of the 20 acres cut, but
think it about two bushels per
acre. The other 20 acres they
did not consider worth harvest.

of 30 pounds put up in extra
heavy 1 bushel sacks. These
oats weighs 81 pounds to the
measured bushel and will repro.
duce themselves true to type.
They are recleaned which re-
moves the straw, chaff, dirt if
any, and all light and defective
seed, hulled kernels, weed seeds,
etc. / am told that the Grayson
County oats are selling at 75c
per bushel or $3.50 per acre
against $50 for good seed, max.
ing a saving Of SOC an acre for
seed, and harvesting according
to my experience one ninth of a
crop.
An oat crop with good seed is
one of the safest crops that a
farmer can grow and it comes at
a time when his farms are prac.
tically empty and his treasury
running low.
If he does not own a threshing
machine, which he should not,
he can store up until the thresh.
er man can get them, thresh his
crop and sell it, getting ready
cash by June -. 1t is about the
first field crop that can be put on
the market and is a staple crop. |
To any one who wishes further
information ! can supply names, !
figures and also list of plants, not |
oats, found in my meadows with
the crop from the imported seed. !
1t has been known for a long
time seeds of small grain do not |
do well when taken South until
they become adapted to this |
change. Grayson County is on
the northern border of Texas
and is in the wheat belt. No one
would think of planting Okla
homa wheat here but would get
Georgia wheat in which state the |
rust-proof Oat was originated |
believe.
