AR0OSTOOk FARMS 1915
RESULTS IN SEEDING OATS

ours with the use of heavy disk drill
in the loose soil of Aroostook. The seed
used was the Prosperity variety and was
grown on Aroostook Farm in 1914
In each case the duplicate plots showed
a fairly uniform yield. The average yield
of the duplicate plots of each rate OF
seeding are as fellows: pecks. 80 BUSH
els; 10 pecks 81 bushels; u pecks, 81
bushels; "A pecks, 81 bushels; 10 pecks, 81
bushels, and 20 pecks. 60 bushels per acre.
These results are decidedly in favor OF
the seeding with IA pecks. They also
indicate that when seeded with ) or -
bushels per acre the yield is as great
as when seeded with or bushels.
These results are fairly we'll in accord
with those obtained last year and pub
lished in Bulletin 236.
From the evidence SO far obtained II
appears that or 81 bushels per acre is
probably the best rate Of seeding for
Aroostook conditions when a medium oat
like the Prosperity Is used. 1t must be
understood, however, that these expert
ments should be repeated several years
before trustworthy results can be secur-
ed. The results obtained this year may
not hold good another year when the
seasonal conditions are different. What
we want to know is: How much oats
should he sown per acre to obtain the
best WELD in a series Of years? Conse-
ouent]y too much reliance must not be
nut in the results of any single year. II
is Manned to repeat these experiments
next year and it is hoped that In time
sufficient evidence can be obtained to
definitely settle the question as to the
proper rate Of seeding for Aroostook

Orono, Me-. Dec. 2S.-(SpeciaD.- fol-
lowing was made public today by Charles
ID. Woods. director of the Maine Agri-
cultural Experiment station at the Uni
versity of Maine:
1t is the prevailing custom in Aroos-
took county to seed very heavily with
oats. Perhaps the majority of the farm
ers SOW from to bushels to the acre.
1t has been the experience in other parts
of the country, and even in other parts
of the State. that this is too much seed
for the best results. From . to bushels
per acre has given the best results in
the southern part of the State. However.
knowing that Aroostook conditions are
quite different from those in the other
parts of the State, the station has not
thought it best to make any recommend
atoms for the former region.
In 1914 some preliminary rate of seeding
experiments were carried out on Aroos-
took Farm. Injury to certain of the
plots, however, made the Interpretation
of the results somewhat doubtful. In
1915 these experiments were repeated
upon duplicate plots under much more
favorable conditions.
Six different rates Of seeding We're use,i
ranging from to 5 bushels per acre.
Each plot was acre in area and the ex-
pertinent was conducted on as uniform
a piece Of ground as could be obtained.
This land was in potatoes in 1914. The
seeding was done with a large disk drill.
Owing to the loose texture Of the ground
the land was rolled before seeding and
also Immediately after. This prevented
too deep seeding which sometimes oc-
