Growers Urged To
Harvest Oats Early
Darrel Brown
Jack County Agri. Agent
1 We have recently been advised
| to encourage growers to harvest
oats and barley even though nor-
mally it would be unprofitable to
do so. Some feel that we will have
the smallest harvested oats and
barley crop in many years.
Owing to late emergence, drouth,
and winter killing of pooly estab-
lished plants, the few remaining
fields are in bad shape. Some seed-
smen have also expressed concern
about where they are going to get
seed of adapted varieties.
