Text Appearing Before Image:
Fig. 32.—The Oat Belt of the United States consists of a crescent-shaped area extendingfrom New England to North Dakota, bounded on the north by the Great Lakes and onthe south by the Corn and Winter Wheat Kegion. An arm extends southwestwardlyfrom this belt across eastern Kansas and Oklahoma to central Texas. Oats prefer a cool,moist climate, and this large acreage in the Corn Belt and southwesterly is owing moreto the need of feed for horses, and of a spring grain nurse crop for clover, than to par-ticularly favorable climatic conditions. In the Southern States mo.st of the oats arefall sown, but in the North the oats are sown In the spring. 442 Yearbook of the Department of Agriculture, 1921.
