RESEEDING OATS ON
 WINTERKILLED FIELDS

Washington, D. C., Feb. 26.-The extreme cold weather in the Southern States during the first two weeks in February caused much winterkilling of fall-sown oats. The yield from fall sown oats is so much better than from spring sown oats, however, that it will not be profitable to resow to spring oats unless much more than half the fall-sown oats were winter killed, according to the U. s. Depart ment of Agriculture. It is best to delay reseeding few days until it can be determined definitely whether or not there is a sufficient stand to justify leaving the crop to mature. Fields where it is certain that this crop was destroyed by cold may now be sown to spring oats with fair pros poets for profitable yields if the ceed- ing is done in February or early March. Only the most fertile land should be sown to oats in the spring, as this crop will not yield we'll from spring seeding on poor land.
 Tes best varieties to SOW at this time are Burt, Fulghum, Red Rust proof, and Appler. The land should not be plowed, but the surface should be loosened by disking or thorough narrowing and the seed drilled in. If a grain drill is not available the seed may be sown broadcast and covered by disking and narrowing. The best rate of seeding is about 3 bushels to the acre of good seed.

one Of the main causes for Disqualified
ton Of most of the young men who
