The Modern Miller, a grt. . publi-
cation, in a review of wheat crop*
over the United States. ajfi Winter
wheat plowing made excellent prog-
ress in most state#, particularly in
■oft wheat territory. Dry hard
ground checked operations in Okla-
homa aud parts of Nebraska.
Optimism for the future of busi-
ness and industry is the keynote of
Bradstreet's and Dun's report of
trade published recently, in spite of .
the fact that business failures (hir-
ing the past week were 395 an cpm
pared with 376 for the week b fore
•
Winter plowing may be resumed
soon In Oklahoma, if the rain pre
diction of the weather bureau mat*,
rlalizes. Light showers were pre-
dicted for several sections of Okla-
homa for Saturday.
It has been estimated that cotton
In Hughes county will average about
300 pounds of seed cotton per acre,
and that most of It will be badly
spotted on account of weevil damage
It was also officially -sported that
wherever Acala cotton was planted,
the damage was not so great as com- |
pared with planting* of Rowden and
other varieties. It Is estimated the
weevils destroyed 200 pounds of seed
cotton per acre In Hughes county.
The man who Is Interested In pure-
bred livestock can Improve the Indus-
try in his own home county and at
the same time help his own businenB
If he will exhibit the best of his stuff
at county fairs. In the opinion of W.
L. Bllztard, head of the animal hus-
bandry department at the A. aijd M.
college. Stillwater.
Bllszard contends that every time
a pure-bred steer is shown, new in-
terest is awakened in pure-bred stuff
and the greater the general interest
th3 greater will be the market for
that class of livestock.
Creamery stations are to be located
near Hugo and neighboring com-
munities as a final effort to arouse
interest in the marketing of milk,
butter fat and dairy products. A few
in Oklahoma county would not be
amiss.
