FARMING
PANHANDLE GRAIN
TIES UP RAILROADS
Crop So Large That Cars
A Cannot Be Supplied
to Handle 1t.

Amarillo, Tex, Oct. 2f.-Hundreds Of
thousands of bushels Of grain are being
held at the various stations along the
different railroads in the Panhandle
and Plains country, by reason Of lack
of cars in which to make shipment.
Grain companies have purchased large
" Of this yield, and they find them
selves handicapped in the matter of de-
livery.
This condition grows out Of yield
the equal of which has never been
known in this section of Texas. Even
wheat, the earliest OF the numerous
grain crops, has not all been moved
During the seasons past the railroads
have been pushed TO their utmost ca
pacity to furnish cattle cars in shipping
season, but this is the first time that a
condition like the present has ever
existed Small stations formerly de-
handing but a few cars in a season,
are now making acquisitions for doz-
ems and not a few of them are run
ming into the hundreds.
Grain Of the Panhandle and Plains
country is in heavy demand through
out Texas and adjoining states. This
demand increases the requests for cars.
It has been estimated this week and
the estimate is believed to be cOnserva-
tive that each of the railroads could
handle at least double its present sup
ply Of cars, all thrOug.1y loaded, If
the rOlllng stock was available.
Prizes for Boy Farmers.
More than $500 has been raised in
Amarillo during the past few days to
be awarded as special prizes TO mem
bers Of the Boys Kaffir Corn clubs.
looking to the production Of an extra
quality OF grain, Of the kind named in
the title of the Orga nizatiOn. 1t is sta
ted by those interested that this is the
largest amount raised by any town of
the state for a similar purpose, and
those chiefly interested in the agricul-
tural development of the Panhandle de-
clare that increased activity is already
forecast for next year.
This work has been headed by H. NJ
Banner, agricultural demonstrator for
the Santa Fe system, assisted by a
committee from the Amarillo Chamber
OF Commerce.

Bowie, Ariz., Oct. 24.-Farmers are
gathering crops, there being good yields
Of corn, kaffir corn and maize. Two
of the recent home steaders are now
figuring on sowing 100 acres each of
wheat oats and barley.

cent homesteader, was so enthusiastic
over conditions here that he filed on
800 acres three miles east of Bowie
and will remain permanently here, hav-
ing already established a residence on
his land.
A flow of water was encountered in
the Rentchler well three miles west of
town. The flow was so strong the
drillers are finding trouble in control

the large gravel up in the casing.
HOmeseekers continue to come in and
file on land, and settlers are arriving
every week, northern farmers with car

blows it into the silo. The machine
keeps ten wagons busy hauling green
