Oklahoma City.—With a growing
condition of wheat ranging from
per cent to 650 per cent, compared
with the 1910 crop, and with a grow-
ing condition of 77.2 a month ago,
the state board of agriculture's crop
report ending on December 26,
shows a remarkable Improvement,
Only a few counties over the state
show a condition In wheat under the
too per cent mark, and a major por-
tion goes over the 200 per cent line.
While this condition is splendid
when compared with 1910, the ac-
tual condition is 82.9 compared with
that of 77.2 a month ago. In a num-
ber of counties the condition as com-
pared with a month ago reaches the
100 per cent mark, though in a ma-
jority of Instances it is under that.
During the last three weeks the
whole state has received a consider-
able amount of moisture, and this has
improved the condition of wheat to
a wonderful extent. The acreage of
wheat, as compared with 1910, Is
shown as 102.7 and with the moist-
ure fliat has come already the con-
dition of the growing crop will im-
prove right along.
In the December report of the
board of agriculture the amount of
grain of the 1910 crop still remaining
in the farmers' hands is shown to
be corn, 49.4 per cent; wheat, 17.1
per cent; oats, 29.7 per cent, and
cotton, 15.6 per cent.

years been more than half a mile from
Its walls, except when she made the
trip, more than 50 years ago, from the
