HARVESTING IN SOUTH
Suggestions for Handling Crops
 for Hay or Straw.
Beat Results Obtained Where Wheat or Oats Are Cut in "Milk" or Very Soft Dough State-Guard
 Against Bad Weather.

(Prepared by United States Department
 of Agriculture0
 Methods of handling wheat and oats vary widely in different localities. In the South the harvest is in some ways differently conducted than in the North. There are, however, number of operations which farmers almost universally have found to their advan tage Where the neighbOrhOOd in which wheat or oats are grown is so far distant that threshing machines are not readily available, farn-ers have found it more feasible to cut the wheat and oats either as hay or to tie the crops into medium-sized bundles to be fed as straw.
 Provided the wheat or oats crop is intended for hay, best results are Ob- tainod where the crops are cut in the milk" or very soft dough stage. The stalks will be mostly green. or just beginning to show signs of ripening below After cutting. the oats or wheat should be cured, and handled exactly as any other common grass hays. If conditions are favorable, the hay will have a bright green color, but If cutting is delayed until the grain is in the full dough stage. the hay will be dry hard and bleached and the feeding value diminished.
 If 1t is intended to feed the grain ill the straw, the cutting should be put off until the grain has reached the hard dough stage and most of the stalks have taken on a yellow color. Under favorable weather conditions the grain will cure sufficiently for storage purposes in six or eight days if put up in carefully made round shocks of nine bundles each, including one cap bundle. Near the coast, where frequent rains are to be expected at this season, grain should be put in small shocks, containing only six bundles, and left uncapped so that 1t will dry out quickly after rain. It is uapessssaxy to tear down and spread
The Little River news., 1916-01-05

,nese small SHOCKS after rains, as 1t sometimes is with larger ones. The bundles, of course, should be shocked immediately in order to avoid the pos sibility of loss from bad weather.
 When the crop is grown not for feeding purposes but for sale or for seed the cutting should be postponed still further until the grain has passed the hard dough stage. If it is permit ted to become dead ripe, however, the quality is not so good and the' loss from shattering considerable. Where the self.binder cannot be used the cut ting may be done little earlier than otherwise. The grain. shocked in the manner already mentioned. should be left in the fele until it is thoroughly cured and then threshed without de- lay. If no threshing machine is avail able at once, the grain should be either stacked or stored in barn dur ing the interval.
 On small farms where storage space ia not abundant it will probably pay the farmer to sell the grain as. soon as it is threshed. With the exercise of little cooperation he may arrange with the neighbors to make up sufficient quantity to ship out as a carload. 1T this Is done the freight car can ba loaded direct from the farmers wag. ons. 1t Is important to remember, how. ever, that the car should be loaded without delay in order to avoid demur. rage charges. Wheat and oats should not be loaded into the same car unless 1t is absolutely necessary Mixed ship. ments of this kind cannot be handled to good advantage in the market
 In the case of oats it is also possible to dispose advantageously of the crop by shipping it in bags to grain brokers orft, CUItcuIedciO1t, 9~0
