Final Approval of Acreage

lit begins to appear that the task
of the Sheridan County Wheat Al
lotment committee is going to be
to lit a square peg IN a u hole.
With the filing OF more than two
thousand applications by farmers LII
the county, 1t has been revealed
that the three=year average wheat
acreage has exceeded the govern
ment estimate by 69,563 acres, or
27 per cent increase. The commit
tee, of course, hopes that In the
interim that elapses between the
first and final publication OF acre
age statements, corrections may be
made which will reconcile the two
figures and thereby avoid the ne
cessity of making a flat reduction
for all farmers in the county who
have elected to sign allotment con-
tracts, but unless this Is done,
farmers of Sheridan may find them
selves facing a shortage of more
than 25 per cent over the original
estimate in their allotment pay
ments.
1t was thought that when the
county average or pooled plan was
adopted, that would simplify the
work OF the County Wheat Allot-
ment office which 1t would but for
n factor, /. e., the heavy acreage
overrun amounting to n per cent
as an average for the past three
years, and that does not take into
account the acreage of wheat
grown from 1930-32 by non-co-op-
orators.
The government official seeded
wheat acreage upon which the al
lotment to Sheridan county has al
ready been fixed) for the year 1880
was $4,000 acres, while the APP
plications show a total for the
same year of 322,o65. The gov

showing 328,923 acres. For 1892,
the official estimate was 262,500

mate was 262,600 acres, with coun-
ty applications showing 3O4,197
acres. The official three-year av-
erage was 248,833, and the appll-

FACE ALLOTMENT REDUCTION
Hunters Bag Many
Pheasants Opening Day

Sunday proved a disastrous day
for stately Chinese pheasants and
wiley Hungarian partridges in the
vicinity of P~lentywood and portions
of Sheridan county. Hunters
swarmed the big Muddy river bot
tom in search of the upland game
with the opening of the season at
sunrise. Many were fortunate
enough to get their bag limit,
while others possibly unaccustomed
tt the habits of the birds, went
home disappointed.
Although a greater portion of the
haunts where the birds abound is
posted, prohibiting shooting, hunt
ers are having but little difficulty
in bagging the birds.
The constant barking of shot
guns has sent the Chinese pleas
ants to the underbrush for shelter.
Only by thorough searching of
wooded patches are the birds dis
covered.
The season will close Sunday at
shutdown.
