Growing Condition On July 2!jth
Figured at 75 Per Cent.
Oklahoma City.—The cotton crop in
Oklahoma allows some material im-
provement during the piet month, ac-
cording to the report issued jointly by
Ike United States cftpariuient of ami-
culture arid the state board of agricul-
ture, showing Ihe growing condition
of Ihe crop to be 75 on July 25, as
compared with 69 per cent., June 25,
and 65 per cent, on May 25. On the
basis of the estimated planted acre-
age, 2,456,000, the condition figure of
75 per cent, determined from all avail-
able sources of information forecasts
(i crop of approximately 771,000 equiv-
alent 500 pound bales. The total 1919
production will be above or below this
forecast according as "Weather condi-
tions, rainfall, insect damage and
other growing conditions remain favor-
able or unfavorable.
The crop as a whole still continues
late, varying from 7 to as much as
80 days in some sections, or fair aver-
age of about 14 days on account ot
the cool, wet spring and the necessity
for heavy replanting in most every
section of Ihe state. Stands were very
uneven, cultivation and chopping was
delayed, hence the crop is consider-
ably spotted, and some abandonment
has to be taken into consideration
since the acreage estimate on June 25.
The harvesting of such an unusual
"small grain crop" under trying
weather conditions, together with Ihe
(scarcity and high prices for labor
caused some neglect in cultival ing
and working out the cotton crop in
the southern and southwestern sec-
tions.
