Futrell Says New
Variety of Oats
Cuts Crop Losses
A new variety of oats, develop
ed by the Wisconsin Agricultural
Experiment Station, may be a ma
jor step in prevention of crops
losses from rusts coming out of
Mexico.
Dr. Maurice C. Futrell, assist
ant professor in the Department
of Plant Physiology and Pathology,
said the variety, known as Good-
field, is adapted for growth in
northern Mexico.
The plant scientist, accompanied
by Lucas Reyes of the Texas Agri
cultural Experiment Station at
Beeville, has been visiting and re
cording data at rust nurseries near
Monterrey and Saltillo for the
1959-60 Mexico oat testing pro
gram.
Futrell said the growing of a
rust-resistant variety of oats, such
as Goodfield, in Mexico would pre
vent the disease from overwinter
ing in that country and then blow
ing into Texas. This would reduce
losses from rust for Texas grow
ers and farmers in other states to
the north.
Dr. Samuel Johnson, author of
“Dictionary of the English Lan
guage,” published in 1755, wrote
that “ther true are of memory is
the art of attention.”
