Secrest Ranch

Description: Photograph of Earle Goode of Ardmore cutting through a good stand of Indiangrass and big bluestem on the Secrest Ranch. The combine is owned by asher and Hurlow of Ardmore. The machine was set so high that it barely touched the tops of the larger plants of little bluestem; the exceeding bulk of the big bluestem and Indian grass made this necessary. The seed was cut on contract with the Soil Conservation Service. OK-9755.
