Subscriber, I’atten, Ga.: (an you give me infer
mation about Tmearora rice, or waler oats? Will it
grow in ponds? Where can I get the seed? What
time and manner of sowing?
Water oatsgrow on inargins|of swamps and in
shallow water in the northern parts of tlio
United States. Do not know that it is cultiva
ted anywhere. Would grow in shallow ponds,
but very doubtful about its growingas far south
as yo ir lo ality. The seed drop ; readily from
the heads, and sow themselves. This happens
in the fall, and suggests that as the proper
time to sow them. You might possibly get.
seed from some house in Uhicago, with direc
tions about sowing.
