Experiments With Ohio Oats Compare Eight Varieties
A Riverside District Grange bulletin summarizes 1891 Ohio Experiment Station oat trials. Forty eight plots tested eight oat groups including Welcome Wideawake Seizure and side oats. Welcome yielded about 4.71 bushels per plot and side oats showed strong straw and higher average yields with several varieties matching or exceeding Welcome. Mixed panicle oats Monarch Rust Proof and Black Russian gave variable results with Rust Proof equaling Seizure. The report notes larger grain weight in Welcome type and recommends granges study Canada thistle control and weed management locally.

A Toledo firm swears to pay for catarrh cures and local papers seek larger circulation with subscriber incentives ahead of 1893.
