Another triumph of dry farming st
these higher attitudes is reported by
Frank Van Alstine, who tells News
Champion reporter that he threshed S2l
bushels from % acres of oats and barley,
oil raised by dry farming on the hillsides
at Castleton. This slope, which faces
the south and west, is not generally con-
sidered so favorable to non irrigated
crops, but has been in grain for num-
ber of years now and never fails to pro-
duce splendid results. The oats were
heavy, weighing out about as pounds to
the bushel so that the crop is really
above so bushels to the acre of weighed
grain. Mr.. VanAlstine declares that
he is becoming convinced that grain
raising will beat the hay crop in returns
from the land. Especially with dry
farming, since the cost of irrigation and
water supply is eliminated from the
acre cost of the crop raised.

EIGHTY BUSHELS Of oats TO
ACRE BANNER CROP HERE

A ''record" crop Of oats was raised
this year on the ranch of C. l. Stone
These oats ran eighty bushels to the
acre. The manager of the Eilebrecht
threshing machine reported that this
was the largest production that he had
ever noted in his threshing tours of the
county. Mr.. Stone had fourteen acres
in oats, this land producing Ills bushels.
Fifty bushels of oats to the acre is con-
sidered good yield. There is not a
better oat raising section in the state
than that near Gunnison.
