Transporta ton More Than Hay

Western hay growers are begin
ming to realize what the recent
big advance in freight rates means
to them. Just at this time hay is
selling at good big figures at the
central markets while it is diff
cult to sell at any price on the
ranch.
The principal difficulty is that
it costs more than the original price
of the hay to get it to market. One
thing seems to be absolutely certain
labor and transportation costs
must come down or prices of farm
products must come up.-Omaha

LITTLE BROOM CORN IS
MOVING IN SOUTHWEST
Prices Too Low to Encourage Grow
ers to Let 60 Of Their Stocks.

Very little of the broOmcorn in
the southwestern territory has been
shipped so far. reports to the rail.
road officials indicate. One reason
is that the price is too low and the
growers arc refusing to sell
Buyers have been offering as low
as $40 per ton, and very little has
been bought above 500. The top
price paid is about 1925. Generally
speaking the quality is not good.
Shipments reported so far are !:
Liberal, 5 cars, Syracuse, cars, Elk
hart, & ears; Guymon, 6 ears; La
verne, 5 cars.
In the Liberal district the farmers
have threshed and bailed only
about 25 percent of the broom corn
while in the Shattuck and Laverne
sections not over 50 percent is in
the bale. Harvesting however, is
over. Nearly all the brush in the
Shattuck and Laverne district
shows up more Or less stained. The
broom corn around Liberal and
south to TeXhoma also has some
stain and considerable red brush
but greater percentage of sound
corn is evidenced here than in the
districts further south.
Prevailing opinion among resi-
dent buyers who have driven the
country is that the acreage around
Liberal is about normal. West to
Tcxhoma it is believed there will be
a reduction in tonnage but south
of Guymon also north, very good
acreage is reported In the Shat
tuck and Laverne districts buyers
report that the average tonnage
has been raised. Elkhart also re-
ports a good acreage.-Hutchinson
