TAGM . . , HI. EXPERT GIVES ADVICE TO FARMERS Winter Oats Will Succeed Central Oregon, nntl llarlry too Should try to ItnUo Kinlncr, or Spelt. In nY PROK. C. I SMITH, (O.-W. It. & X. Agriculturist.) This paper will discus other crop thau winter wheat ami winter rye. These two crops wilt lie of tho most value among creals, hut It Is practic ally certain that other crops may be grown with at least reasonable suc cess. Thoso Include winter oats, winter barley, winter emmer, or as It Is more frequently called, spelti and crimson clover. Possibly tho sand vetch may also tanvo n place of more or less prominence. Winter oats should succeed In Cen tral Oregon. They ought to succeed on land plowed as soon as the fall rains come. The Texas Rust Proof would probably Vie the best variety to sow. About five pecks should Iks sown per acre. The crop may be harrowed about tho same as winter wheat The only real hazard to this ; crop sown In the autumn come from winter killing. Such an occurrence will be determined largely by the I character of tho winter. Whether the crop may be sown with equally' good results In the verr early spring has not yet been determined. Oats sown In the late spring are much liable to l Injured by the dry weather that comes In the early suorer. Winter barley should succeed In Central Oregon. w It does well In the latitude of Tennessee and the winters of Tennessee are more severe than those of Central Oregon. The prep aration of the soil would be about the same as for winter oats referred to above. The amount of seed to tow on well prepared land would !c 'about the same as for oats or prob- iii-ly a peck )ei. The harrowing of the crop would also be the same io"hae. Winter emmer may come a more Important place than either winter oats or whiter barley. Great claims are made for the success of this crop In Wyoming where the winter climate Is more severe than In Oregon. Out this can only be deter mined by growing It. The method of growing would' be abont the same as for oats. It Is a crop that should be tried. Crimson clover ought to succeed in Central Oregon. It Is usually sown in late July or in August in the east ern states where It is much grown, hut It could not be sown in Oregon at such a time for then the weather would probably be so dry as to hinder germination. In Oregon II would be necessary to sow it later. From G to 8 pounds of seed would be enough. It ought to be sown In tho autumn as soon as moisture enough comes to germinate the seed. The crop should be ready to cut for bay In the month of May The value of this crop Io Central Oregon has yet to be proved. If It wilt succeed it wilt mean much to the agriculture of Central Oregon, for It is a soil en richer and its growth adds much to the humus content of the soli be cause of the root development. The sand vetch ought to do well In Central Oregon. Whether the com mon vetch would endure the winters if autumn sown has yet to bo proved. The sand vetch could be sown along with winter oats. When thus sown about three pecks of the vetch and two of the oats should suffice per acre. The combined crop would be cut for bay. The oats would furnish a support for the hay and prevent the entangling of the vines that would otherwise occur. The quality of the hay would be excellent. It is probable that some other winter cros can be, grown, but this cannot be determined until It Is tried. Meadow ferens would probably fur nish winter pasture. Perrenlal rye grass and orehard grass may have a place, ' Dwarf rape and kals possibly may grow through the winter. These, things may not be fully known until , tested. To the writer it would seem , conclusive that the aim should bo to' grow winter rather than spring crops. This does not mean that spring crops should not be grown In some instan ces, but that the bulk of the crops' grown should be sown In the autumn, while the dry weather of summer is to be regretted In a way, yet It has its compensations. It means that the farmer may reap his harvest and thresh it without the hazard of rain. A HOOK I'Olt OUIMOMANH. "The Guardians of the Columbia" Is tho title of u new book by John II.
