Hughes said. Of the common seeds, the speaker said Dakota and Montana grown seeds are the best. In discussing nurse crops Prof. Hughes said that college experiments over a seven -year period showed that a short-straw, early maturing variety i of oats was the best for a nurse crop. Late, or rank growing, varieties Invariably weakened the stand, no matter how promising it was early Li the spring.

He recommended the Grimm and rCanadian variegated varieties as the 'best for Iowa. Cossack, he reported, not do as good on the' Ames test plots as the other two.

With wilt present a Hand can be maintained for three tor four years, compared with eight Sears, as is possible if cultivation is mised. Prof. Hughes stressed the Importance of a firm seed bed.
