HATES AND OK SEEDING. lu the varietal experiments at Archer, winter and spring wheats have been seeded at the rate of 3 pocks per acre. The smaU-kernelcd early oats have been sown at tlic rate of 4 pecks, and the larger kemeled midseason varieties at the rate of 5 pecks per acre. Barley has been sown at the rate of 4 pecks and flax at 15 pounds per acre. Winter wheat, except in the fall of 1912, has been seeded between September 1 and 15. Sf)ririg wheat, oats, and barley have l)een sown between Af)ril 15 and May 1.
