BIG WHEAT ACREAGE WEST


We are reliably informed that
there are thousands Of acres being
broken out in Haskell and Grant coun-
ties this summer preparatory to being
sown in fall wheat. That there will
be the largest acreage put in this year
is fore-gone conclusion. The build
ing of the Santa Fe branch out of
Satanic, which has reached some 10
miles west, is instrumental to a large
measure for the prospective acreage.
There is vast country out in those
two counties and when it gets inwheat
1t will be the biggest single section
in the southwest.

SAVING EARLY CUT WHEAT

The following plan to insure tn
quality of early cut wheat has proven
successful in several cases:
Make a platform Of plain boards
raised a few inches OF the
ground, of a size sufficient to
accommodate two or three days
cutting with the Combined ma
chine.
Six or eight inches from the
edge, all around, put 12-inch
board blocked up about half
an inch. In case of rain, that
will insure draining the water
from the bottom. Haul all the
wheat threshed the first two or
three days and put on this plat
form. II not piled too deep
few days sun and air will cure it
out and make 1t marketable at
regular price. If you find you
have been in too much Of hur-
ry and start cutting too early in
the morning, throw a load upon
the platform. If you find a green
patch in your field, throw the
wheat from that patch on the
platform. The platform should
be large enough to provide for
these contingencies. The boards
can be taken up and stored for
use year after year.
Think this over. Is 1t worth while
srying to insure the quality Of sew
,ral hundreds bushels Of wheat?
