PUNT AN OAT CROP THIS FALL
HaflM
Oat Hay Alone la a Very Satisfactory Feed—Oats and Vetch Make a food
Combination.
j An Inexpensive Crop to Grow—Requires No CuRivatioi
by Labor-Saving Machinery.
OATS IS THE EARLIEST AND SUREST FEED CROP
Because of the shortage of the corn crop in Louisiana, and the more than
usual need of growing at home all the feed that stock will require, a liberal
[acreage should be sown to oats this fall.
\ Meets Labor Shortage Condition*.
-, Oats is the ideal crop for sections where there is shortage of labor. Th*
;crop is planted in the Call, requires no cultivation, and is handled both in
fplanting and harvesting by labor-saving machinery.
October Is the Month for Planting.
i The most common cause for failure in growing oats is in not planting
I at the proper time. Oçtober is the beet month for planting oats anywhere
Jin Louisiana, though November planting is recommended when it is imprac
ticable to plant earlier.
! Variety.—The L<*isiana red rust-proof Is the best variety of oats for this.
iState.
► Planting.—Plant from two to two and one-half bushels to the acre, either
•with a drill or broadcast.
Oat* and Vetch.—When it Is to be made into hay, hairy vetch planted
►with the oats will make a decided Improvement in the crop.
! Soil*.—A medium grade of land Is the most satisfactory for oats. Very
[rich soils will make too much straw. Poor soils will require fertilizers.
Treatment for Smut.—Smut may be prevented by treating the seed oat*
(with a formalin solution—one pint of formalin to 50 gallons of water.
Preparation—Plow the land two or three weeks in advance of planting
•if possible, and disk and harrow to a compact and well pulverised seed bed.
Fertilizers.—Oats should follow cowpeaa, soybeans, taped*** or alfalfa,
fc possible. These legumes make th* |pst fertilisers, especially when a good
•quantity of th* vegetable matter Is Ert<*y*d under in good condition.—Exten
sion Division, Louisiana State University.
Morgan City and Berwick have
been made by Secretary Padmer,
Assistant Secretary Boudreaux and
Treasurer Hebert of the Chamber
of Commerce. These men are
working and they have the loyal
support of their communities be
hind them.
Mr. C. N. Crowell of , Houston,
Superintendent of the Gulf Divi
sion of the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration of Shipbuilders, was here
Wednesday on an inspection trip to
the Union Bridge and Construction
Company Shipyard. Mr. Crowell
says that he always welcomes a
chance to visit Morgan City and
that he has the pleasure when here
of inspecting the best yard in his
territory. It is his opinion that
Morgan City will be a great* ship
building canter for generations to
come. In his opinion, the only nec
essary thing to be done is for Mor
gan City and Berwick to prepare
f*r the growing interests by sup
plying modern living quarters for
the men necessary to carry on the
work.
A splendid program has been ar
ranged to be given at the Opera
j House friday night for' the benefit
