OATS ARE ECONOMICAL CROP
Not Generally as Profitable as Some
Other Grains, but Needed In
Good Rotation. -

It is sound farm business to sell
some crops for cash. Farm manage
ment surveys have shown that the
safest and soundest practice is to
have about one-fifth Of the total re
ceipts on the farm come from sale of
crops. The other four-fifths will come
from the sale of live stock n live
stock products.
The crop that can usually be sold
for cash most. economically is oats.
Oats are not generally as profitable a
crop to grow as some others, but a
good rotation needs this small grain In
it. It makes a very satisfactory con-
Meeting link between the corn crop
and the hay crop. Corn, if sold as a
cash crop, makes a larger return to
the acre, but corn can usually be fed
more profitably than it can be sold for
cash. 1t is ordinarily q cheaper feed
than oats. Hence, If any crop Is to
be sold, it should be the oats.
