RECORD WHEAT CROP
IN WASHINGTON co.
Conditions For Winter Grain Better
Than in Years: Heavy Coat of
Snow Helps.

Special to The World.
BARTLESNuLE, Okla, Feb, A.
If signs do not fail this section OF
Oklahoma ought ~ produce as great
crop of wheat this year as any Of
the banner counties Of Kansas. Right
now conditions for winter wheat are
the best they have been in years and
there is no section # the state where
conditions are more favorable.
To begin with, tho ground has been
covered with "a four-nch snow almost
continuously since early in January.
on top of this there have been a
number of severe days with plenty of
frost. which makes certain the green
bug, the greatest enemy of the wheat
crop. has been cXterminatcd. The
ground was never in better condition,
and when the spring days arrive, there
will he plenty of moisture in the
ground to send the wheat crop away
under almost perfect conditions.
This past year there was promise or
a record yield OF wheat In this section,
lut the floods practically ruined the
crop i'm the bottom lands. In tins
county alone thousands of acres of
wheat were destroyed. If this county
could prevent overflOWs. it would add
a million dollars i'm wealth annually
to the county. But even though over
flows annually cause great damage to
: crops i'm this county and section, each
year sees a big increase in the acre
age and yield of all crops.

Terry disappeared i'm 1907 and at
that time he aud the three men who
were later acquitted Of his death were

that of Terry An aunt with whom
Terry was reared identified the skele-
ton as Terry's remains by reason Of
a broken thigh bone. Terry having
sustained such an injury when he was
child.
According to Sherman he met Bud
Terry in San Antonio, Texas i'm 1910,
three years after the supposed muir
der Terry told him, according to the
affiant. that he formerly lived in
Caulksville and was a member of the
L. O. O. +. lodge there. This lodge
went to a great expense to investigate
Terry's supposed murder. A photo
