Treat your oats so that you will

gallons of water add one pint of for
Observation-Disclosures the oats in
croeus sack and submerge in the
water; let remain two hours; take out
and spread to dry. Be ready to sow
as soon as dry. Or you may heap
the oats up in several lots, sprinkle
them thoroughly with the formalin
mixture = stirring them meantime
with shovel so that all the grain will
be wet. Cover all around and top
with sacks for two hours, then spread
out to dry.
Listen! Do not undertake to make
a fine crop of oats without liberal use
of high grade fertilizer adapted to

is unnecessary waste in the proceed

then follow with your drill-apply-
ing 200 pounds of fertilizer and SOW
ing two and half bushels of oats per
acre. The space between the drill or
rows will be about sixteen inches
just room enough for you to walk
between rows side-wise for the pur-
pose of eradicating any foreign
growth that may appear anywhere on
the area. | assure you, you will be
abundantly repaid for tee alleged
trouble you may be at in exercising
the care suggested in sowing oats
for profitable crop.
You know autumn soWn oats are
very much better than spring oats.
They are heavier; better in every
way. Have care as to the seed. Do
not buy and sow just any kind of
variety of seed oats. Get the very
best on the market. Make your pur-
chase of a dealer or other person you
know to be reliable. Appler, Ban
croft and several other varieties are
obtainable. If you disposed to try
one or two new varieties, send a post
office order, $3.50 to the Robert
Buist Company, Seedsmen, Philadel-

madam Cluster Oats, and, if so dis
posed, double the amount of your
post office order, and have sent you
also two bushels of Swedish select
oats. Both are excellent, and well
worthy a trial In the event, you
accept the suggestion made, sow the
oats in drill on an area somewhat
removed from your other field oats.
Do not be timid about investing in
new seed and new plants. A number
of years ago, former Governor James

BY MARTIN v. CALVIN
atistician Georpia DEPARTMENT

Agriculture.
THE season is at hand when the
acreage to be sown in oats this
autumn should be determined. This
! is one of our most valuable cereals.
1t is true that we do not seem to have
appreciated the fact in its fitness.
We have produced few of what are
termed bumper crops" of oats, but
never crop equal to the demands
of the horses and mules on our farms
any one year.
In 1882, 1898, 1913 and 1915, we
made bumper crops" They ran from
1885, 800 bushels in 1882 to 17,648,-
600 bushels in 1915-a general av-
erage of Che four crops amounted to
TO- 93, 900 bushels. The crops of
the five years-1910-1914, both in
elusive, average $4,000 bushels.
The crops of Ine five years 1915-1919,
both inclusive, average 1924, 900
bushels. We did very much better
during the five war years than in
pevious years.
In 1915 cur average in oats was
905, 900 acres and we produced H.
648,O00 bushels. Let's make the
acreage this year 100000 acres, and
by procuring the best variety of seed,
by treating the seed as against smut
and rust, by preparing the soil in
thorough manner, by the use of a
combination fertilizer distributor-oat
planter, which does not cost much,
and by the use of two to two BUSH
els and a half of seeG and five hun
bred pounds of 6-4-9 goods per acre,
making a general average yield of
twenty-five (22) bushels per acre of
first class oats. What say you?
You see. it is U"-economical to
SOW oats broadcast. Except in far
South Georgia, three out of every
| five years, eighty-tive per cent of the
crop is killed by frosC. But, if you
drill your oats and fertilizer togeth-
er, | mean by one operation, with a
a one-horse fertilizer distributor
planter or with a two-horse eight
spout Superior drill, you will have a
perfect stand of oats that will with
stand the freeze which comes some
| times in January, often in February
| or March. 1 have seen oats thus
sown stand up unscathed in the pres
ence of a freeze which stood only
seven degrees above zero. Of course,
YOU would follow the wise rule of
applying, broadcast to the oats in
the afternoon of a clear day, rs to
/ 100 pounds of nitrate of soda. The
nitrate supplies nitrogen which will
strengthen the straw and otherwise
help the crop.
With a Gannt Brothers (made at
Macon) one-horse fertilizer distrib-
utor-oat planter, all in one, one man
and a mule or horse can seed four
acres a day. With Superior eight
spout drill, a man and two mules can
seed ten acres a day.
If you have an acreage to which
you applied broadcast 400 pounds of
10-4 goods-10 per cent phosporiC
acid and per cent potash-and SOW
edAbroadcast one bushel and a half
