OATS IN ROTATION.

Oats naturally follow corn in rota'
ton. The season, the ease with which
they can be gotten in, and the way in
which they fit in after corn all make
the seeding of this crop desirable at
that time. In states where corn is not
grown, oats should follow wheat or
barley, allowing these two crops to
subdue any sod that may be plowed
under. This Is necessary, because
oats require a great deal of moisture
to bring a good crop to maturity The
moisture is more apt to be held in
land previously worked for other crops
than in sod of any description.
Experiments in man.. states have
proved beyond doubt that a good sys-
tenn of crop rotation aids in holding
and increasing the yield of cats as
we'll as corn and wheat. In some
states. particularly on the southern
edge of the corn belt. many farmers
are dropping out the oat crop This
should not be done, as they fit we'll
into many schemes of cropping and
can be made to pay a good money re-
turn II good seed is used ard the seed
bed properly prepared.

CLEARING THE LAND OF
WEEDS.

Owing to its early maturity. barley
is an excellent crop for clearing the
land of weeds, as it IL cut before they
mature seed. After the crop 10 70
moved the land can be plowed or
disked. thus destroying the weeds that
are growing in the stubble. Further
cultivation will kill any that survive
this treatment or appear later. In the
semi-ayid regions this added cultivs-
ton is of considerable value In con
serving the moisture for the succeed
ing crop.
1t has been authoritatively est
mated that the money loss In small
grains on account of dockage, freight
and other incidental expenses con-
nected with weed seed, Is equivalent
to 2.1l per cent. Of their total money
value
On this basis the total money loss to
the farmers of the United States in
small grains alone on account Of weeds
is about $26,5O0.00O.
This estimate does not include tho
loss on account Of the nutriment stolen
from the ground or the stunted growth
of the cereal on account Of the weeds
present
Were all these conditions taken into
consideration. with the coarse grains
and grasses included. the results
would be startling. and our careless
ness in this respect so apparent ~ to
awaken action to recover this enor-
nous loss.
The habit Of paying this weed toll
has so accustomed us to the loss that
we are blind to the fact that 1t IL en-.
tirely unnecessary.
Science has made it possible to elm
mate the weeds and grow grain in
their place. The sulphate Of iron proc
ess is proved success and 10 entire
ly within the reach Of every farmers
pocketbook.
Make it easy to pay taxes BY going
into the fields once each year and Do
stroying the weeds; the increase in
yield will not only pay taxes, but leave
a good margin Of profit In addition.

STACK BARLEY CAP.SHEAvES

For brewing purposes barley should
always be stacked and allowed to 90

as best results are obtained by doing
so. When stacking the barley 1t 10

in a stack called No 2 quality, and the
projected bright colored bundles in .
stack called No. quality. This 10 BY
far the best way to grade barley. II
the discolcred cap bundles are stacked
together with the bright ones 1t will
be impossible to grade 1t after 1t 10
threshed and consequently decline In
value of the discolored and damaged
barley that has been mixed, will re-
suit. In stacking it is best to build
medium sized stacks. about seven
good loads makes a stack Of proper
size
Leave Air Space.
Stacks should not be built too close
together, but should have space
enough between them so that the air
can circulate freely between them
which we find is great help in cur.
ing the grain for threshing.
Care and good judgment should bs
exercised at the time Of threshing.
especially II the grain is dry. The
concaves in the machine should not be
set too close. 1t is often necessary to
take out some OF the teeth from the
concaves. The speed Of the machine
should be reduced SO that the kernels
are not broken nor the boards clipped
off too close to the kernels. which 10
detrimental for mailing purposes.
Masters and thresherman know
this as leaving the barley somewhat
"leggy." The beard should not be
clipped off closer than one-eighth inch
from the tip Of the berry.
Damaged Kernels.
Damaged and broken kernels II put
in the malthouse to sprout will form .
mold on the injured parts. which 10
not wanted by the masters, nor will
such barley grow we'll II sown in the
ground.
For feeding purposes it would not
make much difference, discolored and
broken kernels have practically the
same feeding value as bright colored
barley, as the feeding value 10 not
changed by the color, but the price 10
for mailing barley.
Take Good Care Of Barley.
The difference in price paid for
mailing and feeding barley varies from
five cents to sixty cents per bushei.
sometimes more in favor Of tho malt
ing. If barley is cut at the proper
time, care taken in the shocking and
stacking, and little common sense
exercised at the time Of threshing, 1t
would mean to the farmer Q revenue
far in excess Of the little extra labor
expended.

Drilling vs.. eroadcastina.

Taking one year with another it will
be found that the drilling of oats is
much preferable to the sowing of oats
broadcast. The seed Is more evenly
distributed and more evenly covered.
From peck to half bushel may be
saved in the amount of seed needed.
In some seasons. such as 1907, the use
of the drill will be found to be ex-
ceptionally profitable. At the Iowa
station an increase of nine bushels per
acre was secured in favor of drilling
that season. 1t will be remembered
that the spring was rather cold and
dry. Figuring the oats at 33 Is cents
per bushel, 1t will be found that less
than IS acres of oats would have paid
for drill that year. In seasons more
favorable for oat production this in
crease is by no means as marked, yet
the drill can be recommended as a
much more profitable method Of put
ting in oats than the common system
Of broadcasting.
