Mr.. L. B. Young. of the Kansas
Grain company, in speaking of 'fhe
wheat condition through the central
part of the state, said that it was pos
sible that good crop would result
even in the face of the adverse wealth
er conditions so far, but that the
probabilities were against such an
assumption. 1t is a hard matter to
tell at this stage of the game what
the yield viii be, for the grain men
say they have been so often fooled
that they have given. up the habit of
making assured statements or proph-
ecies. The hard wheat is capable of
standing SO much in the way ofad-
versity in the way of unfavorable
growing weather that though it seems
at times impossible forit to make
yield. sudden turn for the better
will make it green and hearty. In
citing an instance, Mr.. Young stated
that he had known of wheat which,
through long continued drouth and
winds, appeared to have lost all SEM
blance Of life, and was SO dry it would
burn if match was applied, gave
forth full crop by a break I'M the
drouth. at other times, wheat which
looked capable. of an assured crop up
to within two OF three weeks previous
to the sending of the. binders into
the field would bea failure through a
change. to 'unfavorable conditions.
The farmers over the country think
that the wheat. can. stand about "a
month of the present kind of weather
without any harm. If the winds
keep off, it may even survive longer
than that. The roots are striking.
down deep and, finding the moisture
and though it is.not stooling, the farm
ers are not disheertened by arsf
means with the present showing.
The prayer that is most on the lips of
the farmer is that the winds will not
blow: 60
Conditions are practically the same
all over the central part of0 the state,
the weather man has not been partial
and all localities have shared alike.
The wheat is showing up on an
average Of two inches above. the sod,
whereas usually ii. is about twice that,
According to the Kansas Grain Co.,
fully so per cent of the crop of 1908
/ has been already moved.
The acreage is not as large this
year as last of from Is to- 10 per cent
This has been occasioned By mum
Der Of things, the lack of help and
money, Immediately following the
payment of harvest expenses for hir
ing all the help needed, and also tc
other conditions. ..
