The Fsll Planting ot Oats Believed to Be Al most s Total Loss — Scarcity ol Seed for Reptootlo,. Tlie December freeze has played havoo with the oat orop in Southwest Georgia. So far as the Herald's information ex tends, this is the only material damage done in this region by tho unprecedented Deoember weather that we have been experiencing for the post ten days, bnt this is not inconsiderable. On aooonnt of the dronth that pre vailed throughout the mouth of Ootober, the best time for sowing fall oats when conditions aro favoraHe, the fall plant ing was very generally delayed nntll about the middle of November, and wheu the freez, came it oaught the ground wet and the yonng oats at that oritloal stage when to be ont down by the oold meant death to them. They had not had time to beoome well cnongh rooted to survive a hard freeze. In tne Herald's inquiries only a few farmers have been fonnd who are of tho opinion that the oats will snrvivs this remarkable spell ot December weather. A few, bnt, only a few, planted their oats in Ootober despite the dry weather, and, while it is admitted that oats plant id at that time may not all be killed, it is the consensus of opinion that they have been materially injnred, while those planted later have been killed outright. The destruction of the full planting of oats in this section at this time is a serious matter. It means something more than the mere cost of seed and re planting, for it is the fall planting that counts for most in this region. The yield from oats planted in the spring is never so good as from those planted in the fall, and on account of the short oorn orop that was made this year an onhsnal valne attaches to the pros pective oat crop whioh, under favorable conditions, wonld beoome available in May. Another featnro whioh outs consider,- able flgnre in the disaster to the oat orop is tho general scarcity of seed and the prioe of tbe same. Oats that were planted in Ootober and November were pnrohased at from 75 oents to 80 oente per bushel, bnt now the rnling prioe in the market is $1 per bashel.
