The data shown in Table XXI are not conclusive. Though the 
Kherson has yielded as well as any other variety at Carthage, more 
data are needed before the most desirable varieties for growing in 
southwestern Missouri can be named definitely. 
Results in Arkansas. 
The annual and average yields of the Kherson, the Sixty-Day, 
and six other varieties of oats grown at the Arkansas Agricultural

According to the data shown in Table XXII both the early red 
and the early white varieties have outyielded the Kherson and 
Sixty-Day at Fayetteville. The one best variety has been the Burt, 
which has outyielded the Kherson by slightly more than 5 bushels
