wELLnoRN cRoP VIEWS.
Fruit and Vegetable Growers Union
Has Been Organized.


Wellborn. Texas. March i.-Farin work
is, upon whole. further DELAYED than
for many years. Very little corn has
been planted and nose who have alreedy
planted fear that they will have TO re-
plant. Breaking land has been very much
delayed on account of too much rain.
The acreage in oats will be decreased
some from last year. but sorghum and
other foodstufI will be about the same.
Corr acreage will be heavy, especially
in the Brazos bottom; as the Hood ruined
every acre of corn last year, and TO fla
the supply there will necessarily have to
be an increased acreage in corn.
Cotton acreage will be about the same
as last year. People are very enthusi-
astic over the prospects OF getting eight
cents for their cotton next fall. but 10
get this they realize that 1t will not
take an increased acreage: as that would
mean a large crop and low prices. and
for that reason II now looks as though
there will be no increase IN the Gotten
acreage.
A Fruit and Vegetable Growers asso.
citation YVES organized here last evening
with quite a nice membership. OWING
TO the lateness OF the season there s moi
expected to be a very large acreage
planted this year, but there sill be one
trucking done for experimenting. and
preparations made for extensive planting
another year.
