Plains To Be
Made Leader
In Seed Wheat

The wheat growing section Of the
West is what Hamlin Palmer, acting
secretary Of the Panhandle-P Plains
Chamber Of Commerce, sees the
Panhandle as.
Mr.. Palmer yesterday sent out
letters TO commercial club secretar-
les and directors of the Panhandle
Plains Chambers Of Commerce no
tifying them of the organization Of
the Southwest Wheat Improvement
Association, Of which +. r. Humph-
rey, general manager of the Great
West Mill, is a director. Mr.. Pal
mer's letter in part follows;
II am handing you herewith an
nouncement Of the Southwest Wheat
Improvement Association which you
will observe is organized for the
announcement Of better farming 70
the end that wheat growing in the
Southwest shall produce the maxi
mum yield per acre and be Of such
quality as to command the highest
prices in the markets Of the world.
You will also note that this is an
organization Of commercial and
business interest cooperating with
agricultural organizations.
M. Banner, who is well known
10 the agricultural interests Of the
Panhandle, being formerly agricui-
tural agent of the Santa Fe IN this
section Is managing this campaign.
He has stated 90 the writer thai
the farmers in the Panhandle belt
already have good ideas as TO seed
wheat selection and De believes that
ON account of the superior quality
of Panhandle wheat, with q little
more care and organized Efforts, the

forocful manner
lie declared that cotton is the
greatest plant IN existence, and that
the people of Texas have some
thing of which 90 be proud IN this
States annual production. He drove
home the fact that Texas Is reali-
zing less from the growth OF this
great product than many states m
the North, where lis growth and
cultivation Is not known.
THE fact that Texas produces one
fourth Of the cotton produced IN
the United States, and manufactur-
cs only one percent Of the cotton
products manufactured in the UNI
ted States, stands out as bold em-
phasis that something is lacking
somewhere, and il is up to US TO
correct that thing" He said by
figuring the land on which cotton
Is grown at a valuation Of one nun
dred dollars per acre, keeping an
accurate and exact account Of the
cost Of labor. teams, and incidental
farm expenses for series Of five
years. the Texas farmer viii average
making no more than five pcrcen,
on his investment.
Mr.. Guess understands the cot
ton business in Texas from planting
time 20 buying time, and declares
il his intentions 20 correct the pres
ent condition Of letting Texas farm
ers produce more wealth than any

Mil Number 2, is TO placed some
where on the Plains, which location
was selected after much considera-

tors Of the Company. The strong
est argument put up by those fav-
orinR the plains, being the fact
that owing TO ideal climatic condi-
tions. superior soil, and far removal
from ravages Of boil weevil, and
similar insects, this will someday
become the leading cotton produc-
ing section of the state, and these
features combine TO make this the
practical location for such mills.
