Farmers who were here today from

the prospects for a bumper cotton

the corn that has been planted since
the rains began few weeks past has
been plowed the second time and is
growing rapidly. One farmer stated
that in ten days after his corn was
planted that it was large enough to

the early variety and will be perfectly

planted and is also growing nicely.
There will be plenty of corn made in
many sections to supply the demand
and where there will be a shortage
of the corn crop plenty of feed will
be made from the milo maize and
kaffir corn, and with the bumper cot
ton crop that is promised the farmers
in this section will be in better con-
dition financially than they have been
for some time. There is no country
on earth that offers greater induce
ments to the farmer that will work
than this part of southern Oklahoma.
The climatic conditions are ideal. the
people enjoy good health, and there
are few other places where two crops
can be grown in the same season,
and that this can be done success
fully here will be proven by the corn
crop that is gathered here this fall.
