The growing crop has been put
out and is looking well. A num-
ber of farmers over the country
have been interviewed in regard to
the 1904 acreage and summary
shows that there is not more than
fifty per cent of the usual crop
planted in Christian. While some
planters have put out the usual
acreage, there are others who only
planted one fourth of crop. This
is especially noticeable among the
larger farmers. One South Chris.
tian planter cultivated one hundred
acres last year and this year be
only put out fifteen acres. Another,
who last year set seventy-five acres,
this year put out eighteen. There
are two reasons for this condition
In the first place there has been q
scarcity of plants and in the second
the low price of the weed caused
many farmers to cut their croE
short, planting more corn.
