THE OAT CROP;
Don’t neglect it. Plant plentifully. Your stock will be
healthier if fed oats during the hot summer days. If you make
a surplus you can sell for good money. A bumper oat crop
through the South would spell boom prices for next year’s cot
ton crop.
Get true, tested and acclimated seed, such as I offer.

not well manufacture a time obser
