Early Varieties Of Oats Yield Better In Tests
The North Platte experiment station reports early oat varieties outyield late ones. Kherson averaged 29.5 bushels per acre, while Swedish Select and Silver Skin lagged far behind at 17.2 and 15.3 bushels. Among early types, Permonts outyielded Kherson by 9 percent, Nebraska No 21 by 7 percent, Burt by 8 percent, and Sixty Day by 6 percent. Drouth and rust reduce late-variety yields, with sowing rates and timing affecting outcomes. Planting from March 25 to April 6 boosted yields, while April 10 marked a drop. The piece also argues for ensilage and silos to preserve corn fodder and improve farm economics.

Colorado Corn Leads Other Crops in State
Since 1981 corn has been widely grown in Colorado but in 1923 it becomes the state’s leading crop by acreage for the first time. Wheat remains higher in total acreage, yet corn now has more farms growing it alone than farms growing both winter and spring wheat. Reports from county assessors to the State Board of Immigration show about 300,000 more acres devoted to corn than to winter wheat, while the combined winter and spring wheat acreage still exceeds corn.
