SPRING BARLEY STUDIED FOR SUBSTITUTE CROP
Search ' for new _or different farm crops for 1950 planting on acres taken out of wheat or corn is creating interest in spring barley and other crops not generally grown, according to Purdue University agronomists. Spring barley has limited adaptation to Indiana, and then only to “limey”, high nitrogen soils of the cooler counties bordering Michigan. Rarely will it produce as much feed per acre as Clinton or Benton oats. As a nurse crop for chinch bugs, barley has no equal, the agronomists declare. Seab which interferes seriously with its use for farm feed is another handicap. For spring pasture ,and as a companion crops for legume seedings, barley is as satisfactory as oats. For farmers desiring to use barley, the Moore variety from Wisconsin is recommended with a seeding rate of two bushels per acre. Spring wheat, spring rye, and spring emmer yield less grain than oats. e
- Much of the land taken out of corn an dwheat production logically can be sown to soil-im-proving legumes and grasses to help the pasture program of the livestock farmer and -contribute to better erosion control and soil conservation, Oats drilled at two bushels per acre makes an excellent nurse crop for such seedings and will be extensively used in 1950. Heavy fertilization improves both oats and stands of legumes. Under droughty seoil, conditions where wind or water erosion, or weeds, -or not prblems, seedings may be made without a nurse crop. Under such conditions, seedings of grasses, alfalfa and Ladino may also be delayed until August.
Aside from the seed and market value of the recommended varieties, oats can be used for spring pasture instead of grain.. Such use will not destroy, and even favors spring seedings of grasses and legumes. Under dry soil conditions, either pasturing or removing oats for hay will improve chances of thier survival. For a good all-season hog pasture, one bushel of oats and- three to five pounds of rape may be used. Grass and legume mixtures to be sown in oats under varying soil conditions will be found in Agronomy Mimeograph circular No. 24, available free at the county agent offices or Purdue. Such crops as soybeans for hay

NEW OATS DISEASE ‘ ANOTHER WORRY Indiana oats were were seriously attacked by a new trouble in 1949 that is worrying many farmers in the state this spring. J It has been called “red leaf” and “gray spot.” This trouble has been seen before many times according to Dr. Ralph M. Caldwell, ‘head of the department of botany and plant pathology of the Purdue University Agricultural Experiment Station. However, he reports that it has never been so widespread and damaging as it was in 1949. ' Many farmers observed the lower oats leaves beginning to turn red when the plants were from 10 to 15 inches tall. Later the upper leaves also become red.

Such red plants headed out short-| er than normal plants and produced poorly filled kernels. The affected plants occurred in patches and the heads and straw were a bleached, faded color as compared - with surrounding bright yellow healthy oats. After combining, the whitish or “gray spots” could be seen in the stubble. : :
The cause of the trouble has not yet been determined and no means of control are known, In answer to the question, “will it likely occur again next year?”, Dr. Caldwell says that it is impossible to predict since so little is known about the disease. However, since it has been known to vary in occurance from year to year in earlier years, it is very possible that it may not be as ‘serious in 1950 as it was in 1949.
- All varieties observed last year appeared to be equally susceptible to damage . This included the older varieties such as Columbia and the newer Benton and Clinton. Some seed dealers have inplied that the new varieties Cherokee

and Nemaha may be expected to resist this trouble. “There is no basis for this claim,” says Dr, Caldwell. He says, however, that both Cherokee and Nemaha in 1949 showed somewhat higher resistance to the crown or leaf rust than did Benton and Clinton but that these varieties thus far have not yielded as well as Benton and Clinton, :
