CROPS FINE IN COWLEY
Five Million Bushels is the Estimate Made
for Corn

for Corn.
The splendid rains of the last few
days make a splendid corn crop in Cow
ley county a certainty, says the Cour-
ier. The ground is now thoroughly
soaked and the corn for the most part is
past the roasting ear period. 1t is not
possible now for the hot winds to hurt
any partofthe corn except that planted
in the stubble land after the wheat was
cut This of course will require rain
during August and September to make
a crop. According 70 the assessors re-
turns there are 123,412 acres IN Cowley
county planted in corn. Last year
there were 1O0,652 acres planted. The
returns made by the assessors can
hardly be taken as a basis from the
fact that the acreage reported is not
enough. Some of the assessors filed
their returns as early as the first week
in April and after that time hundreds Of
acres of wheat abd oats that were
blown out were listed 10 corn. Neither
do the records show then lumber of
acres planted to KaIlr corn, which
this year is quite a prominent crop.
But taking the acreage repaTted on
a basis Of forty bushels per acre, which
is beyond doubt too low, and our corn
crop figured up in round numbers the
enormous crop of five million bushels.
1t will not be less.
There is enough Kaffir corn and al
falfa in the county to feed all the stock
except hogs which are fattened for
market, and this practically leaves the
corn crop for sale. Figure this UP as
low as ten cents per bushel. 1t will not
be lower. II this is not a herald of bet
ter times the corn editor does not know
hok TO figure.
