Two Million Bushels Of Wheat
and Over One Million Of
Corn.
FOR FORD COUNTY THIS YEAR
Acreage Is 164,400 Acres Of
Wheat and 48, 900 Of Corn
for 1909.

Some Of the estima ates on the wheat
crop in Ford county for this year put
the total at over 100000 bushels.
The lowest estimate the writer has
heard puts it between 100000 and
100000. And the corn crop, from
the present prospects, will be over
100000 bushels.
There are about 164 400 acres Of
in wheat in the county, after deduct
ing the amount which was plowed
up and put in other crops. An av-
erage yield OF IL bushels will make a
total Of almost 100000 bushels. 1t
is Of course very difficult to get at the
average yield in the county, Some
Of it is light and some OF it is heavy.
One farmer said the other day when
asked what the lightest wheat in his
neighborhood would make, that there
was field near him that would not
60 over FIVE bushels to the acre.
Asked what the best yield in his
neighborhood would be, he expressed
the opinion that it wonld be thirty
bushels to the acre. An average in
the county Of ten bushels to the acre
would give us a million and a half
bushels, and if there should be, as
some think, an average Of fifteen
bushels, we would 60 away above the
100000 bushels mark. Six years
ago we were predicting that we would
soon be in the million bushel class.
Now million bushels would be
called failure. We reached the
million bushel mark, doubled that,
and there is a good chance for doub
ling the two million record within
few years. There is much land yet
to open up into wheat farms in the
county and the acreage will no doubt
increase every year. We are among
the big wheat counties now, and only
just started.
The corn crop, however, will be
more Of surprise to people gener-
ally, than the wheat crop. Ford
county has never been figured as
corn county, yet the present year
with the same moisture we have been
receiving, there is a good show Of
raising over a million bushels Of corn
in Ford county. There are nearly
$4,000 acres Of land planted to corn
in the county, aud more than that
counting the late planting. II this
corn land should produce an average
yield Of rs bushels. we would be we'll
up over million bushels, and with
the wheat and the cane, kaffir and
other feed crops, Ford county is to
be considered among the frstagricul
tural counties Of Kansas; the great
est Of agricultural states.
The change in the county from ten
years ago is remarkable, when one
thinks about it, and the change the
next few years will be still more re-
When the Globe-Repub
lican predicted a few years ago that
Ford county would be in the 2,0O0,-
600 bushel class in wheat raising, it
was considered "hot air" by a good
many. Now everybody expects to
see it 20 to 100000 or 100000 in
a short time.

The manner I'm which this act was
