Texhoma Livestock Report
Eva News
Row crops are maturing rap-
idly and harvest is picking up
momentum according to the
Oklahoma Crop and Livestock
Reporting Service and Exten-
sion Service Wheat seeding has
essentially been completed in
the Panhandle and over two-
thirds of the crop in that area
is “up to acceptable stand’’
Elsewhere seeding is in full
swing although dry soils in
some western areas are causing
spotty germination and delay-
ing seeding progress Army
worms are causing moderate '
to heavy damage throughout
most of Oklahoma State-wide
around two-thirds of the in-
tended wheat acreage and two-
fifths of the oats and barley
acreage have been seeded
Scattered rains improved
surface moisture supplies dur-
ing the past week but subsoil
moisture declined County Ex-
tension Directors rated topsoil
moisture 54 percent adequate
and subsoil moisture 26 per-
cent adequate Supplies of
both surface and subsoil mois-
ture are sharply below a year
earlier
Row crops remain in fair to
good condition Corn for grain
harvest is one-fifth completed
in the Panhandle and two-fifths
completed elsewhere Many
fields in the Panhandle have a
rather heavy infestation of
Corn Borer Nearly three-fourths
of the sorghum grain crop
is mature Harvest is just starts
ing in the northwestern and
north central counties and is
around one-fifth to two-fifths
completed elsewhere Birds
have caused heavy damage in
a few aieas
Native grasses are respond-
ing to recent rains but grazing
remains short in western two-
thirds of Oklahoma Supple-
mental feeding continues in
these areas Livestock remain
in fair to good conditioa Many
farmers in southwestern Okla-
homa are waiting for rain be
fore buying additional cattle
for wheat pasture

For some reason there's a few old wives'
tales kicking around about gas With about the
same validity as the one about the moon being
made of green cheese
One we'd like to squash right here and now
is that the vent on a gas clothes dryer is to carry
away some kind of "evil" fumes
Baloney
A vent on a gas dryer is there for the same
reason it's there on an electric dryer To carry
away hot air and the humidity that comes from
the clothes as they're dried
An electric dryer needs a vent just as much

as a gas dryer does To keep your laundry room
from becoming a steaming jungle
What you can believe is that gas dries your

If you want the job done right do it with gas
