VOLUME XXXXVJ
GRADY ' ortTY
IS SOAKED WITH
6 INCHES OF RAIN
County Is Assured One
Of Biggest Corn Crops
In Its History.
After S weeks of drouth the
rain elouds rolled up Sunday
afternoon and for five days
they have poured moisture on
Grady county field.'. Over six
Inches of mu In lure had fallen
up to Thursday noon and the
end was not yet in sight The
rain did little damage in this
eounty. Practically all the
wheat has been combined and
saved in fine shape. Some oats
are in the shock and may be
damaged unless sunshine
comes. The second cutting of
alfalfa was saved and a third
cutting is now growing rank
' and luxuriant.
Grady county will harvest one
of the biggest corn crops' in his-
tory. Yields of from SO to 60
1 bUShcls to the acre will feature
the crop this year. The wind and
rain blew down some of the
broom corn crops in the Alex
vicinity end will make harvest-
ing difficult
Grady county farmers will
produce more material wealth
this year than they have ever
produced in any twelve months
since the county was organiz-
ed. It isn't often a 'farmer is able
to harvest a bumper wheat crop
and bumper corn crop ail in the
same year. That is assured this
year. The cotton crop is growing
good. The stand is good all over
the county and the heavy rains
will assure a rank growth. The
only threat to the cotton crop is
insects and Marion LuN:s says
they have a poison now which
is a sure death to boll weevils
and cotton insects.

THE BIG FISH GASPED
FOR AIR IN WASHITA ..
E. L. Reed who runs the
power plant on the Washita
says the fishermen missed
a big opportunity when they
didn't show up on the bank of
the river after the hard rains
of this week. E. L. said hund-
reds of buffalo carp .and eat
fish were gasping for air after
the sudden downpour. He says
after a drouth if there comes a
sudden downpour there is a
sort of gas forms from the
water running through the
debris and vegetation in the
creeks. This gas seems to make
the fish drunk and they float
until the gas is dissipated.
The Washita waa hardly
bank full Thursday morning.
There wasnt enough water to
wash out the algae tasts which
has . been showing up this
week. Mr. Reed says we may
get a river full of water from
the Clinton flood but it will
take four or five ca for it
to get here. He haa kept close
tab on floods and he says 18
hours for a flood to come from
Anadarko 36 hours from
Carnegie and 5 to 6 days from
Clinton.

PHILLIPS TO
DRILL DEEP TEST
IN SECTION 3-4-8
All The Big Companies .
Backing The Deal
May Go To Bromide.
Announcement was made
this week that the Phillips
Company would drill a deep
test in the northeast of section
3-4-8. This test is backed by a
half dozen of the biggest
companies fat the Mid Continent
area. Some of the companies
which nro reported to be in
the deal are the Phillips Co
The Magnolia The Gulf the
Sinclair .Prairie: The Oklaho-
ma Natural and the Skelly Oil
Co. This test is slated to ge to
the Bromide. This b on the
southwest flank of the old
hallow gas field.
The test will be drilled cm the
Oscar Dryden farm which is now
owned by Mrs. Majorie Nich-
los. The Dryden farm had a few
shallow gas wells on It twenty
years ago. The late John B. Nich
los always believed deep oil
production would be found on
thb farm. Another deep test b
now drilling in the north end of
the Nichlos field in section 16-5-8
on the Rider farm.
These two deep tests may
cause one of the biggest drilling
plays in the history of Grady
county. The' geologists have al
ways believed deep oil produc-
tion would be ' found on the
flanks of the Nichlos gas field.
The Phillips drilled a ten thou-
sand foot test in section 28-5-8 a
few years ago. This was too far
down on the structure. The new
Phillips test b right on top of
the structure.

TWO SECTIONS
Bob Kayser Says
Looks Like Dewey
And Warren The Team
Star Reporter Has Big
Time In Press Gallery At
The Philadelphia Convention.
' - By Bob Kayser
Philadelphia 6 A. M. Thursday morning It
looks like old Jim Elliot and Doc Gardner picked the
band wagon when they hopped on the Dewey train.
The press and radio boys went home this morning at
4 oclock predicting that the G.O.P. ticket would be
Dewey and Warren.
Of course they could be wrong and if the Taft
Statwen Warren and Vandenburg forces can force an
adjournment after the second ballot this afternoon the
outcome may be different. If the Democrats hadnt ad-
journed four years ago when they did Henry Wallace
would be president of the United States today.
If the opposition to Dewey can get a breathing
spell get time to get their forces together on a man to
beat the litfaa mustache from New York they have a
chance.
I have been having a big time. Pm a pretty little
fish in a mighty big puddle and the puddle is getting
bigger.
A press ticket from the Chickasha Star got just
about as good a press seat as was given the big fellows
from the Chicago Tribune and the New York Times.
The fellows running this show want the small town
newspapers to get a real break and we got it.
There are about 1090 delegates in this convention
and there are easily 2000 press and radio boys on the
job. This gives each delegate a body guard of two.
It was a hurly burly night last night. Dewey hav-
ing the first break put on the most spontaneous demon-
stration. Taft put on the longest and Stassen the most
colorful The candidate who got the first nomina-
tion had a big advantage last night
Up here it has rained every day of the convention.
Not a good old Oklahoma rain but just a Yankee drizzle.
It rains more in an hour in Chickasha than it does in
three days up here.
. It is mighty hot in the convention hall just as hot
as the Legion Hall in Chickasha in August with Elmer
Fraker making a long winded speech. They ought to
do something about air conditioning before they hold
another "convention:'; ' "
-1 wrote the President of the Junior Chamber of -Commerce
of Philadelphia along in February asking
him to get me a room and he got me a good one In a priv-
ate home not too far from convention hall. I only pay
$2.25 a night for it The lady who owns it is mighty nice
but I really believe she is going to vote for Truman.
Oklahoma is sitting pretty on the Dewey train and
C. Edgar Honnald might be secretary of the Interior if 1
the New York governor is the next president'
The big balloting will be on this afternoon and if
you sit close to your radios you will know more than I
can tell you.
Hope this melee is over this afternoon and I can get
going toward Canada where the big ones are biting.
There is going to be a greater exodus from Philadelphia
when this thing is over than there was to the promised
land of Biblical times.
