Answer: -:-Speaking generally, mix-
ing flax with oats has not been found
to .be highly satisfactory. Professor.
Zavitz found that by mixing oats and
• barley in proportions . cif approxim-
ately a bushel of each and by adding
28 pounds of flax to the acre he. ob-
• tained 2511 pounds of grain. per acre
• In comparison of 2509 pounds per acre
from the oats and barley without the
flax. Flax straw can be fed to cats
tle without injurious results, but it is
not highly nutritious and itsa use
• should be delayed until supplies of
• oat, barley. and wheat straw haye been
exhausted. •rlax seed should mature
"aPproximately with early oats. • In
• sowing flax the seed is small and
• comparatively heavy. • If sown in a
• mixture with barley and oats it will
tend to yen through the seed, tube!'
toe quickly. For best resultse then,
the seed will have to be sown separ-
