I broadcast feed oats in all the plots starting with the last photo, and working my way along to the other areas further out. I then disc in the oats to cover the seed, almost looks like they were drilled, its come up nice, filled in much more since that photo. One portion of the rocky soil area got 1 type of TSC plot spike, another area 200 yards out, a shooting lane, got the other type of plot spike mixed with feed oats, both types actually have mostly oats in it. Green bag has other forages mixed in. I then, before a rain broadcast whitetail institute no plow, as an overseed, do not disc this in, too small of a seed. This will infill between the oats, which in some areas I broadcast double or triple coverage, one area did not get no plow. If I can just get some lime onto it, and some fertilizer, by early October it will be lush growth. I am going to plant rye grass over my sweetcorn patch, once that is done, I will cut and plow it immediately under. It seems a late summer planting of annual or perennials is best with the weed situation here, I would have to spray in the spring and the one darned patch the geese would destroy with a spring planting. I want to put imperial clover back into that plot, I had it nice a few years, would have made it a few more, but the canadian geese, destroyed it, just like they destroyed 12 or so acres of the 2nd planting of corn across the pond. Other than that, oats is the least expensive most productive forage you can plant in these parts, it works well for what it costs. I have not tried other forage as of yet, but do look forward to nice lush green areas, which may help during the winter as extra forage.

Today's Featured Article - New Life for an Old Allis - by Tyler Woods. My friend Jon, has an old '39 Allis Chalmers B. He thought it a marginal tractor that had long since served its time. She smoked terribly and never had much power but he couldn't afford another so he was limping along with what he had. Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
