BEST VARIETIES or OARS.

There are so many good varieties OF
under different names that 1t Is hard
to make general recommendations as
to just the kind to SOW. The best
thing to do In every case II you are
dissatisfied with your own seed Is to
write at once to your state experiment
station asking them to tell you the
name Of q good variety OF oats for
your locality and wnere you can OBJ.

this regard. az they are the best

Much money and time could be
saved II our farmers would keep clear

derfully productive varieties. Grow
those that have been carefully tested
and have proven their worth.
The seed oats should be kept free
from mixture. both 1or the nke OF
selling seed oats and the yield. A
good way to do this is to have a seed
patch large enough to produce seed
for the land you expect to seed to
oats next year. Sow here only choice
seed which you know Is absolutely
pure and true to the type Of the va
riety you are growing.
Oats can be kept from being mixed
by the threshing machine II care is
taken to sell OF or feed the first load
through. BY the time Is is threshed
all the mixed grain will be run out OF
the machine.

EARLY AND LATE OATS.
(ey I. c. Brown.)

In very favorable season for
growth. such as we had In 1910. the
later varieties are bigger producers
than the early sorts: or, In other
words, in seasons when soil conditions
and moisture favor heavy growth of
straw the late varieties have the ad-
vantage. But In seasons when growth
conditions are hard the early sorts
will give good account OF themselves.
For southern Illinois recommend the
early Sixty Day variety, providing it
can be .sown on tolerably good ground.
but for main crop In central and north
ern Illinois do not recommend Sixty
Day or any Of the early sorts; Of
course. there are conditions under
which ! would SOW Sixty Day in north
ern and central Illinois. II the seed
ing season was late. or II wanted to
remove the oats crop from the ground
as early. as possible. the seeding Of
an early variety would then be adv:s-
able. These early oats will yield toll
erably uniform crops. but they A--,e
not the ability to produce e1traorul-
nary crops under very favorable con-
ditions. and right there is where the
big. late varieties outstrip them. These
early oats have q place all over the
oats belt. but they have their limita-
lions az to most favorable zones. This
variety does well in South Dakota: it

The damage or loss from oat smut
10 much greater than Is generally sup.
posed. owing to the fact that the smut
appearE before the oats are ripe and
is blown on SO that it is not very
noticeable at harvest time. The hun
dreds OF tests that have been made by
the stations show that the yield OF
oats is increased one to five bushels
per acre by this treatment and some
times much more than this. The aver
age loss to the state each year is from
7 to IL per cent, amounting to from
$1.OO0.000 to 100000 annually, in
the cat growing states. In some cases
there has been found as high as 80
per cent. of smut and frequently from
20 to rs per cent. The average annual
loss TO the man with eighty acres Of
osts Is $50 bushels. Early oats like
the Kherson and Early Champion are
especially likely to be injured by smut
and extra care should be observed In
treating them. The loss from smut
can be- entirely prevented by the
for,ualdehyde treatment. which every
farmer ought to practice before blam-
Ing "the middleman."
There is enough money wasted ev-
cry year in every state to pay for =
trained agriculturist for each county.
Farmers are beginning to appreciate
business methods

OATS m THE SOUTH.

II is much easier to cut and save
100 bushels Of oats on two acres OF
land than 1t is to cut SO bushels from
six acres. 1t should be the aim Of the
farmer to make large yields so to har-
vest the crop rapidly. OF course II
land IL well prepared the best way
Is to use self.binder. A team Of
three horses will cut eight to ten
acres day.
The next best plan Is to make the
land smooth and cut with mower,
rake up into winrows and haul to the
harm when dry enough. When fed In
the straw that Is a good plan. II
ripe when they are cut they require
little curing before placing In the
barn. But when they are to be
thrashed 1t Is more convenient to tie
them in bundles .
The best plan to feed oats il to
thrash them and measure out the ra-
ton properly. When fed in the sheaf
there is must waste. The straw when
ssved without rain Is almost as valu-
able as best cured fodder. Many Of
our farmers do not appreciate the oat
crop according to it's true value.

BALANCED FOOD TO STRENGTH
EN- STRAW.
nv n. q. BELL,

A most serious defect In oats grown
upon farms In the center west Is u.s.
&ually weakness Of straw. This Is due
to the superabundance Of nitrogen In
the soil. condition produced by the
turning under Of clover once In three
or four years. in the rotation OF crops
and by the use of barn manure on the
soil. In the center west soils there
Is an abundance Of potash for many
years (but much Of this potash is in
an unavailable form. A wellbalanced
fertilizer will supply this much-needed
element In sntiicient quantity to make
the crops stand up until the heads are
filled and the grain matured.

YIELD AND QUALITY BENEFITED

fev \. G. BELL,

The oat crop In recent years has
been light in weight per bushel. Only
small portion OF the crop has graded
over % pounds to the measured bushel
Such conditions are due largely to the
fact that the right plant food Is not
avilable at the right time to nourisn
all functions Of the plant, and as q
consequence the stalk grows luxuriant
ly but the heads fall to fill satisfac,
torily. Ohio experiment station finds
that the use Of well balanced fer
