ACREAGE SMALLER THAN
LAST YEAR IS ESTIMATE
Yield Expected to be Less; Wages

Help Plentiful; Other
Crops Doing Well

Harvesting OF Grady county's 1921
wheat crop is slated TO begin during
the latter part OF this week and by
the middle of next week should be
In full sway. according to A. r.
Houston, county agricultural agent.
That this years crop Will be far
inferior to the 1920 crop is certain
~. Mr.. Houston says. the drouth dur.
ing the month of May and the in.
sects hay .ng lnterferred with the
growth and development OF the grain.
He estimates that the average pro-
duction per acre in Grady county
will be approximately 10 bushels
while the 1920 crop yielded approx
mately 90 bushels per acre.
w. J. Smedley, county chairman OF
the Oklahoma Wheat Growers asso-
citation, estimates an acreage de-
crease OF Is per cent In this county
from the total Of last year.
Labor Is Plentiful
During the past three years, Grady
county wheat growers have been con-
fronted with the labor problem. Such
is not the case this year. The
county agent states that sufficient
supply of labor as well as threshing
facilities will be available when har-
vesting of the countys wheat crop is
started this week. Mr. Houston esti-
mates that from 10 days to two
weeks will be required to complete
the harvesting of the crop.
In accordance with an agreement
reached in conference OF wheat
growers, harvest laborers will be
paid $500 per day and board.
The county agent reports that the
countys cotton crop will be late,
but that prospects for a good crop
are bright Watermelons, he says,
are suffering from bugs rrd exces-
sive rains. Prospects point to
bumper barley production, while the
oat crop probably will be far below
normal, Mr.. Houston states. Corn is
growing fast and has good color,
although the ears will be small, the
aggie agent believes.
