Oats are a very eazy krop tew raize.
All yu hav got to do, to raize sum oats, iz to plough the ground deep,
then manure it well, then sprinkle the oats all over the ground, one in
a place, then worry the ground with a drag all over, then set up nites
tew keep the chickens, and woodchucks out ov them, then pray for sum
rain, then kradle them down with a kradle, then rake them together with
a rake, then bind them up with a band, then stack them up in a stack,
then thrash them out with a flail, then clean them up with a mill, then
sharpen both ends ov them with a knife, then stow them away in a
granery, then spend wet days, and Sundays, trapping for rats, and mice.
It aint nothing but phun tew raize oats--try it.
One ov the best ways tew raize a sure crop ov oats, and tew git a good
price for the crop, iz tew feed 4 quarts ov them tew a shanghi rooster
then murder the rooster suddenly, and sell him for 25 cents a pound,
crop and all.
