OKLAHOMA CROP NOTES
The following Authoritative facta
have been worked out for the interest
and consideration of people who con-
template moving to this state and
"taking up the business of wheat farm-
ing No other principal wheat state
offeds more exceptional opportunities
than Oklahoma in the raising of this
crop as proven in the actual figures
‘given below" Oklahoma wheat far-
mers receive a larger return on their
original land investment than in any
of the other' leading winter wheat
states'
The table below is self-explanatory
and states have been arranged ac-
cording to their rank in production
for 1022 It might be said here that
the reason for such a low valuation
per acre in 1922 was directly due to
the severe drouth which prevailed ov-
er the main wheat belt of the state
during the fall and spring cutting
the yield per acre abnormally low
- Even in the face of that unfortunate
year Oklahoma still out-ranks her
sister states in value received

Considering the three year average
value per acre of wheat' in Oklahoma
it would require 29 acres to pur-
chase one acre of plow' land outright
This is less than in anyl other princi-
pal wheat growing state 1 In Kansas

their average wheat acre value would
demand 41 acres to buy one acre of

aerts in Illinois 66 acres in Missouri
44 acres and in Ohio 46 acres
The recent freeze 'again injured
Oklahoma’s peach crop and other
early fruits and did some damage to
oats Corn planting had not started
to any marked degree but it is gen-
erally considered that potatoes were
also injured materially! The records
show that Oklahoma’s peach crop has
escaped the freeze and frost fifteen
times out of the past twenty-five
years This would mean a crop three
times out of five on an average
There is at least one of two things
that should be done with old peach
trees either put them in the brush-
pile and plant other crops in their
place or give them a chance and a
new lease on life by proper pruning
This cutting 'back should be attended
to now in an effort to turn our pres-
ent loss to future gain Heavy prun-
ing can be done with beneficial re-
sults as late as May 1st but should be
done sooner ‘ so as to give as much
time as possible for the new growth
to develop a crop of fruit buds for
next season’s tiop This office will
be pleased to mail instructions on

“Getting By
Bill had forty-nipe jobs in some forty-nine
years
And he’ll have a lot more ere he
dies
For his bosses each one bounced him
out on bis ear !
’Cause he worked “just enough to
get by”
He went at each job with a whoop
and a shout ' J '
With the light of success in his eye
But his flame of ambish before long
flickered out
And he did “just enough to get
by”
He finds that positions now come
mightey slow
When it used to be as easy as pie
To find a new job but the bosses all
know
That he works “just enough to get
by”

To favor his job with a little bit more

ALFALFA WILL HELP WHEAT
Considering the Southwest as a
whole there is no crop that can be
combined with wheat to better ad-
vantage than alfalfa In the first
place alfalfa Is a profitable cash
crop in the areas where it to best
adapted Once established it can be
produced with little expense and prac-
tically no risk But its greatest value
to the farmer who has been growing
wheat alone is the fact that it will
aid materially in reducing the Iobs of
soil fertility that is taking place at
an almost alarming rate ‘
To just what degree alfalfa will ar-
rest soil depletion or restore a run-
down farm is an open question Al-
falfa like other legumes has the pow-
er of removing free nitrogen from the
air and storing it in the soil and!
when it is plowed up leaves the soil !
richer than when it was sown A
good supply of nitrogen is not only
necessary to the production of large
wheat crops but recent investigations
