The crop report of the United
States department of agriculture
estimates the present crop to be
approximately 900,000,000 bush-
els. The average in the United
States for the past five years is
086,691,000 bushels, thus givinir
to this year's crop an increase of
over 200,000,000 bushels. The
June 1 forecast indicates that
the crop how being cut in Okla-
homa will reach 41,900,000, as
against 17,224,000 bushels aver-
aged in the past five years.
Kansas ieads any other state by
more than double, her yield be-
(ing estimated at 148,000,000
'bushels, or 107,000,000 bushels
| more than Oklahoma. Only
three other spates, Nebraska,
Indiana and Illinois, will surpass
Oklahoma in the total number of
bushels harvested. Oklahoma is
placed at'the head of the list as

tion in Texas is rated at 93 pe
cent, with an acreage yieid of
15.6 bushels, and a total yield of
16,900,000 bushels.
The present report places the
yield in the United States at al-
most half the world's wheat pro-
duction, and 137,000,000 bushels
more than was ever grown in
thn country before. Grain spe-
cialists have been contemplating
the effect that this crop will
have on the world's market.

Fanners Carta* Wheat.
The ripening of the heavy
wheat crop has called into re-
qu wit ion *11 0f the available
hands to assist in the preliminary
harvest work-that of cutting
and shocking the grain. As
stated last week, about eighty
binders have been distributed
over this territory, and these
will be busy until the rich yield
is all ready for the thresher.
The appearance of black rust
has caused a little uneasiness
lest the maturing grain suffer
damage, but it is not considered
a serious menace to the crop if
the weather clears up and we
have plenty of sunshine. In
fact the spirit of thankfulness to
God for his bounty this year is
so deep and profound that no
complaint is heard about the
minor disadvantages.

Raymond Tillman has been
carrying his arm in a sling as a
result of an attempt to break the
record for pole-vaulting. The
pole he was uging broke and he
fell, spraining one of his arms
and perhaps sustaining a slight
fracture. He is getting along
nicely, and is able to be around.

Big Fish Fry.
Dr. d. c. Buck, w. c. Austin,
c. c. Baker and c. h. Benntt
went to Fullerton's irrigation
dam Monday and spent the day
fishing. The most wonderful re-
ports are current about Bennett's
bravery in looking any kind of a
catfish full in the face. Baker
makes no pretensions as a pisca-
torial artist, but he prides him-
self on his ability to serve the
delicacy after someone else has
landed it. It is said that it was
a culpable violation of the ethical
code established by this conscien-
tious quartet to capture a
fish
there for many years and enjoy-
ed the confidence of the business
men of that place. Miss Sheriff
has been a popular society leader
of Louis, and in her removal to
Hollis, will be missed by the
young folks in the charming cir-
cle where she has so happil
reigned. - . , , —
