The Drought Situation

In response to telegrams during
the past week from Arthur M. Hyde,
secretary Of agriculture at Washing.
ton, and II. G.. Ramsower. director of
extension work in Ohio, your county
agent has attempted to get true
picture of conditions in the county
due to drought, and report to these
authorities.
After conversations with farmers
from every township in the county,
the following report was made to
Washington and Columbus. Approx
imately 10M of the cattle in the
county and $50 of the sheep have
gone to market at this time, which
would not have moved yet under
normal conditions. The prices paid
for these cattle range from Sc per
hundred down. Sheep have sold
from 81 to $4.75. OF course some
few broken mouth ewes have sold
as low as 81 per head. but sales at
this low figure have been stuff that
was worth about what il brough.
under present conditions. Such
sales have n benefited the county.

VIII Exhibit Them At Ohio State
Fair-Merino TripIets Rare

The following is sent us from the
O. s. q. college extension service:
Triplet C-type Merino sheep, the
proud possession of an II year old

weighed Sc, II and 81 pounds.
The eve weighed 1873 pounds. All

rather than hurt its sheep industry
The present condition of livestock
was reported as fair to good.
As to the feed situation, the es-
Inmates are as follows: Hay and to-
tai roughage, about onethird of a
normal crop; corn about one-third
normal; wheat normal; oats one
half a crop.
Relative to the water situation, it
was reported that approximately
2G1 of farmers in county We're hav-
ing TO haul water for stock, and
that perhaps 203s OF farm families
were having TO haul water for fam
lily use In answer to the question:
percentage of farm families that
will need charitable assistance" &"
the answer was "negligible," with
normal rainfall from now on.
This picture is not sectional. It is
an attempt to view the county as a
whole. and though it may not be
accurate, the committee felt il was
as near a true picture as could be
drawn at this time.--XX.
