Sheriff Sidney Scnram OF Pottawato-
ME county was in the city yesterday
relative to the reward offered by the
governor in the capture and conviction
of the murederers of Sherlffs Smith
and Beck at Anadarko several months
ago Schrams deputie sin a battle at
Wenoka Mound killed Walter Swafford
who according to the confessions of
Mobley and Williams in the federal
Jail, was one of the murderers.
Sheriff Schram says that as Swofford
is killed it will be impossible to con-
vict him and he would like TO know
when and how he is going to get the
reward. He thinks the battle at View
Okla is sufficient trouble to a man
without having to wait for the reward.
These matters have been so tied up
by the legislatures that it is a diff
cult matter for governor to act In
many cases.

CROPS ARE SLOW

Washington. ID C.. April 81 Tho
to The eastward II was too cool IN the
Middle Atlantic and Southern States.
and decidedly dry over the greater part
Nocky Mountain regions. in the Mis-
week ending April - was warmer than
.tnc average IN the Pacific coast and
sour valley and the northern districts
.ot the central valleys and Middle At
laniic States. Rain is badly needed
.throuphout the Rocky Mountain dis
tricts and central valleys, and would
prove beneficial in the Middle Allan
NC States, while excess Of moisture has
fndered farm work in portions OF the
central Gulf States. The latter part
OF the week was marked BY abnormally
high temperatures in Kansas aud Ncb-
aska intensiiying the drouth conditions
IN those states. The general weather
conditions, although not conductive to
rapid advance W vegetation, were very
favorable Tor farming operations in
nearly all parts OF the country.
The progress of corn planting has
been rather slow. except in Missouri
aud the Southern States, this work
being about finished IN the central and
the west Gulf districts. A large acre
age of ground is prepared for planting
has been done in southern illinois but
none csewhere northward OF the Ohio.
The early planted is coming up I'M
southern Kansas, where cultivation has
begun
Winter wheat has continued to make
slow growh. and on the whole is in
/ 'css promising condition in the primer
pal winter wheat states of the central
valleys than at the close OF the pre-
viouN week Moisture and muder tenn
peraturcs are generally needed for this
crop throughout these districts and
also in the Middle Atlantic States. The
outlook IN California continues prom
ising and the crop has experienced i'm
provcment on the north Pacific coast.
The termination OF early sown spring
wheat over the southern portion OF the
spring wheat region has been slow,
and seeding has been retared by ireez-
ing in North Dakota. The Red Riv-
er Valley lands in Minnesota are dry
ing nicely, and seeding began on the
! 18th. Some reseedipg will be ncccs-
sary in Minnesota as a result OF the
duststorm OF April 10th and nth Seed
ing has progressed fayorably on the
north Pacific coast.
I'm the Missouri and central Missis-
/ sippi Valley States oats are maxim (
! slow growth and are much in need OF
rain and warm weather. In the South
ern States very general improve
ment is indicated Seeding is well adj
vauced in the northern districts, ex-
cepting New England and the north
ern portion OF the Middle Atlantic
/ States.
Very good progress has been made
in cotton planting, except in portions
I of Tennessee the Carolinas, and
Florida. and planting is nearing com
pletion over the southern portion OF
the cotton belt Over most OF Texas
cotton is up to satisfactory stands, and
blowing and chopping are well under
