Bonda is not a bad oats for this area although it yielded ten bushels per acre less in Iowa fQr the five years. It is stiff strawed, which is what our farmers need with so much fresh manure all the time. It doesn't stand the rusts though. Reselect Clinton, (Iowa) Clinton 59, (Indiana) and Clinton 11 (Illinois) all the same oats, is still an excellent variety, hard toc beat. This brings up the topic, do oats run out? No, they just get mixed up and crossed, which brings out the undesirable characteristics. Oats are developed, by crosses, but they are not hybrids in the sense that C9rn is developed.

This habit usually manifests itself in the tot of two years or a little older. Sometimes the child tries repeatedly to say* a word only to stammer or stutter in pr&houncing it and very often a syllable or the entire word is never completed at all but just a sort of struggled attempt of soi^nd is emitted. Stuttering has an emotional basis and ordinarily appears when the youngster is faced with new adjustments. For example the two or three-year-old is very anxious to make himself understood. . It is the innate anxiety that is one seat of the trouble, for the little one is anticipating his iteed mentally before,. the thought is expressed. A child who stammers 01 stutters should not be fussed at or corrected harshly.
