/ Out Where " the Big Wheat Grows \ l HE hum of the combines and the chug of tractors make a duet of up real joy and prosperity these days in Southwestern Kansas. This' is in the land of the big where wheat, good farming and a reasonable measure of luck with the weather have placed that section on the highest level of prosperity since wartimes. This huge crop goes well over the borders of the state, into Oklahoma and Colorado-the folks who are working on the extension of the Manter branch of the Santa Fe to Joycoy, Colo., are seeing some real grain these days. A great development has taken place in this part of Kansas in the last -10 or 12 years=-slnce the Elkhart branch of the Santa Fe was built. There has been a change-from the big cattle ranches to the fields of open wheat, raised by the use of big and a machinery, system of wholesale production which has been mighty from the helpful standpoint of profits. But even more credit is due to the faith and pep of the people there, who believe in Southwestern and in ' Kansas, its ultimate destiny as a dominant unit in agricultural Kansas.

In this section one can see "big farming" at its best-and a maximum use of In power. many communities 75 per cent of the wheat will be cut this year with combines, pulled by tractors, and the wheat will be hauled to the elevators in trucks, over roads which are smooth, and quite generally free from the hills and ravines so common farther east.

This section has had some years of poor yields in the past-no doubt this is crop above the average. But it is also true that �he. � . " people are learning to themselves to the -.,.._ adapt soil and climatic ..... conditions _ which exist there. Perhaps the most encouraging to angle farming in that territory south and west of Dodge City is this' or rrot year's big crop the tractors or the combines or

, the trucks-it is the great increase in the use of summer fallow. . I That farm intelligent practice is showing up well on most fields this the contrast is even year-and more evident in years when conditions are t�� not so favorable as they were in '1926. Anyhow out of it all real farming methods are being developed. The country has a future. It great is well worth the expense and effort required to make the trip from Dodge City to Elkhart and out to Manter and get acquainted with the folks.
