crop for the many thousands of farm
ers who have not learned to grow
winter legumes.
Two and one-half acres were plant
ed in oats at the experiment station
at Baton Rouge, La, for grazing ex-
pertinent on September %. October
20 seven Poland China hogs, weighing
In total 276 pounds, were put on this
plat and were given no feed but the
green oats during the winter. Febru-
airy II the pigs weighed total of 568
pounds. There was an average gain
og 81 pound per pig per day for ITO
days. From October 20 to January 1
IS head of sheep we're pastured on this
same plat. OF this number, eight
ewes and nine lambs we're pastured

at which date the lambs averaged 68
days old and 35.5 pounds each. Allow
ing six cents per pound for the lambs,
we have a return OF $13.40 per acre.
plus the pasturage of the sheep not
considered in the estimate.
The loss of humus la the soil re-
suits In the increasing of its power of
storing up and properly supplying
crops with water. Soils with liberal
supply of humus are capable of more
effectually withstanding drought than
similar soils with less humus. The
oat crop fills the soil full of roots, and
the stubble also adds much hunus to
the soil.
The oat grain is very valuable feed,
especially for young animals, because
OF its moderately high protein content
and the large amount of ash and min
eral matter. Pound for pound cats
are not as valuable for feeding ma
ture animals as corn. four pounds OF
cora being equal to about Ave pounds
Of cats However, when we consider
the cost of growing the two crops and
the fact that feed is always scarce
when the oat crop is harvested, we are
forced to admit that every farmer in
the cotton belt SHOULD grow oats.
In attempting to build up the worn |
cut cotton lands, we must depend very |
largely on the legumfnous crops. Now
the Oat crop is harvested early enough |
TO permit the growing Of leguminous
crop. The leguminous crop may be
plowed under or it may be used as
feed, and the manure returned to the
land II we are going to build up our
land and raise good stock, We must
grow oat crops and follow with Iegume
cFpps.

as not to touch the lespedeza and top

The lespedeza begins to bloom In
September and October, and is ready

Do not cut when wet from dew

three days open out, air is needed, and

unnecessary to offer suggestions rela,
tive to the growing of COW peas, soy
beans and peanuts after oats. The
farmers of the cotton belt have had
some little experience In growing these
crops after oats.
The development Of the diversified
agriculture and the increasing of the
acreage devoted to the oats and the
leguminous crops win do. much to
hasten the day of independence on
The cotton belt farms.

CHANGE IN RULES IS ASKED

and Stars viii "Hold Out" II Mag
mates Refuse Them.

If the members of the baseball play
srs' fraternity stand pat on their de-
hands made on the major league mag
hates and the latter refuse to give in
% their aims, there should be whole
sale holdout when it comes to signing
contracts next year. A number of the
big league stars have already agreed
10 hold out if the demands of the fra
ternity are turned down.
A series of demands were drawn up
recently and will be placed in the
hands of the magnates during the win
ter, after which the!' will be submitted
10 the national commission with the
request that they be made part of the
laws governing organized baseball. 1t
was said that already 65 per cent. of
the members of the players fraternity
have Endorsed the proposition.
Four important demands are under
consideration, 1t is understood. They
are:
No player who has been member
of major league club for ten years
shall be given other than his uncon-
ditional release.
No player who has been member
of a major and minor league club, in
elusive, for IL years shall be given 9TH
er than his unconditional release.
No player who has been carried on
a major leagues pay roll until July
shall be released to the minors unless
waivers are secured from the 16 clubs
Of the American and National leagues.
A major league club owner shall be.
prohibited from carrying player who
has an opportunity to play on another
major league club until the late
months of the season, thus taking ad-
vantage of the time when the teams
are carrying many recruits, to send
the player in question to the minors.

The quantity of seed that is neces-
sary to SOW an acre of oats is variable.
If sown early in the season or sown on
very fertile soil smaller quantity of
seed may be used than IL sown late
or sown on poor land. If the crop Is
planted 25 per cent less seed may be
used than if the same crop were to be
sown broadcast
There are three methods commonly
practiced of planting oats, namely:
Sowing broadcast, open furrow and
drilling. Drilling of the seed is to be
preferred, since considerably less seed
can be used If drilled by machine; the
seeds are covered at uniform depth
and come up, grow, and ripen uni.
formly; the small ridges made by the
drill afford slight degree of protec-
tion from the cold; and the yield from
drilled oats is usually greater than that
from broadcast oats. The seed saved,
and the larger crops that usually re-
suit from drilled oats, will soon pay
for a good drill on the farm.
1t Is we'll nigh impossible to discuss
oats in the cotton belt without discuss
ing lespedeza, COW peas, soy beans and
peanuts, as these crops are almost as
much a counterpart of oatc as the
Siamese twin Ang was of his brother
Chang.
AS soon as all danger of frost is
past SOW about one bushel of lespe-
deza right on top of the growing oats
and make no attempt to cover what
ever. 1t Is advisable to divide the
bushel into two halves and sow them

half walking north and south.

Oats Should Be Principal Stock

MOST PROFITABLE IN SOUTH
Plant Would Reduce Washing and
LeaehIng to Minimum, Furnish

Supply of Humus.
Bx G. H ALEoRDA

From October ! to November Is, ac-
cording to the latitude. is the best
time to SOW oats in the cotton belt.
The oat crop should be made the
principal stock feed grown in the cot
ton belt The area in oats should be
fully as large as that in corn, but let
US not forget the facts that as a stock
feed and cash crop, oats is one of the
best crops that can be grown in the
south.
The chief crops grown all over the
cotton belt are cotton and corn. As
an average for a ten-year period of
1900 to 1909 there was planted from 10
to Is acres of corn for each acre of
oats in the various cotton belt states.
During the same time an average Of
the oat crop per acre was $1,000, while
the average value per acre of corn was
$1102. Figuring the cost of growing
an oat crop and a corn crop, we find
that the oat crop was the most profit
= ablesssThere are several important rea-
sons why we should SOW millions Of
acres of oats in the cotton belt. The
oat crop would reduce washing and
teaching to the minimum, furnish graz
ing, add to the deplorably deficient
supply of humus, add to the always
short supply Of feed stuffs and supple
ment the money crop-cotton.
OF course, there are better winter
cover crops than oats. Burr clover
and crimson clover are the vetches,
and In some cases some of the other
winter cereals are better. We do not
claim that oats alone or that oats and
hairy vetch combined should be grown
for the sole purpose of supplying
cover crop. However, in view of the fact
that oats will grow on poor land poor
ly prepared, and it costs little to seed
an acre. 1t is good winter cover

BIRDS HAD
 FINE TIME IN CITY

Fltty-one members of Douglas Aerie Eagles Journeyed to Bisbee on Monday night to attend a smoker and initiation
 which was given by the Bisbee lodge.
 Two candidates were initiated into the mysteries of Eagledom and they expressed themselves as being wholly satisfied with what had been given
 them.
 The Douglas delegation came here
 in automobiles and returned home after the session of the lodge. They arrived in Bisbee about S:00 o'clock and it was after ? o'clock before they
 left for the Shelter City.
 After the business session of the regular lodge meeting, the officers turned the chairs over to the officers of the Douglas lodge and the Douglas degree team took charge Of the candi- dates and the initiation ceremonies. The members of the degree team Of the Douglas lodge are reputed to ba the best trained in the Southwest and made vigorously excellent show ing. After the initiation, the members together with 9 few invited guests. enjoyed an elaborate luIch with the 1 local aerie. It is needless to state that the lunch was all that one could ask for in the culinary line and every one went hone well filled with favor for Eagledom and the things that go l 10 make the inner man feel glad. President O. s. French of the local lodge said today that the occasion was one Of the best that was ever teEdered by the lodge and that all the i members were greatly eIated over their success.
 Next month the local birds will pay the Douglas lodge a visit to attend an
 initiation that Is now being arranged
