ABEUZZI BYE. — Years ago agents of the 

 United States Department of Agriculture 

 found a variety of rye in one of the Ital- 

 ian provinces and sent a quantity of it 

 to "Washington. From there it was distri- 

 buted to various parts of the United 

 States. In this way a prominent planter 

 of South Carolina got hold of it. Its re- 

 markably rapid growth so soon after plant- 



ing attracted his attention and the small 

 patch was carefully watched. It made 

 good then and it has made good regularly 

 ever since, not only in South Carolina but 

 in all the other Southern States where 

 small quantities have been planted.

 bushels per acre. Lb., 35c, postpaid; pk„,

Oats should be planted for hay making during early October, though they may be sown 

 as late as the early part of December, with the expectation of making a fair return.

 will be about the first week in May.
