In hardiness toward cold, orability successfully to withstand a severe -nanter, thisvariety is superior to Burt but less hardy than Turf, anddecidedly less hardy than barley, wheat, or rye. In spiteof the occasional winter-killing of a crop of Red oats sownin the fall, it is usually more profitable throughout thegreater part of the cotton-belt to sow in the fall than afterChristmas.
