_ n Of the cafe since it closed hospitable home,
Mrs. J. W. Whatley. pioneer
resident of Miami and Canadian,
died Sunday, January 15, after
a few days illness.
Mrs. Whatley was bom in
Rome, Ga., December 22, 1848.
She was 84 years of age at the
time of her death. To the end
of her life her mind was alert
and her body remarkably strong
and active for one of her years.
She was a great reader and her
interest in her friends, the church
and the affairs of the state never
waned.
She was the wife of the late
Rev. J. W. Whatley, a pioneer
Baptist preacher, who died' July
17, 1928. Mrs; Whatley came
with her husband to the Pan-
handle from Ladonia, forty-nine
years ago and settled first at
Canadian. They later moved to
Miami, where they have lived
for the past twenty-five years.
Rev. Whatley was chosen pastor
of the Miami Baptist Church in
1907. He was active in early
missionary work all over the
Plains.
Mrs. Whatley was an ideal
preacher's wife and her Chris-
tian influence, with that of her
husband, has been a great factor
in the making of this section the
spiritual center that it is today.
Together they bore the hardships
of the pioneer life,; depriving
themselves of the comforts and
material blessings which we en-
joy today, that they might give,
their time and talent to the
spreading of the gospel in this
frontier country. It may be said
of Mrs. Whatley and her husband,
like Paul, "They have fought a
good fight, they have kept the
faith, they have finished their
: course, henceforth there is laid

The Canadian Chamber of Commerce has ordered,
through the county agent, 4,500 pounds of state certified
kaffir, hegari, and cane seed, to be sold to the farmers of
the county at actual cost. These seeds are ordered from
a state registered and certified' seed breeder, and are the
first year progeny of registered seed, according to Parker
D. Hanna. The origin of the seed traces back to strains
bred and improved by the Texas Agricultural Stations.
The stations place small quantities of pure line strains
in the hands of responsible firms or individuals, who are
required to properly "bag" this stock, maintain proper
isolation, practice roguing, and own or operate threshing
and cleaning machinery. The fields of certified growers
are inspected by state officials several times during the
growing season, and any fields showing purity counts
below certain prescribed percentages are discarded. Cert-
ified grain sorghum fields must show a varietal purity of
not less than 99.8%. .
Records from 10,000 acres planted to certified gram
sorghum seed in Lamb County showed an increased yield
of 42,000 bushels on the 10,000 acres, over the average
vield for the county on ordinary seed. Records from
2,000 acres in Randall County planted to certified seed
showed an increase yield of 12,000 bushels, over the
average yield of common seed. Other experiments show
increased yields of frcm 6 to 12 bushels per acre over
common seed. So it can be easily seen that the few
cents per acre difference between the cost of certified
seed and common seed is repaid many times in increased
yield. Also the harvesting cost per bushel is considerably
less on the fields planted with improved seed, as there
are less hybrid stalks and variations in height and stand.
By ordering in large quantities and in one consign-
ment, these seed are being obtained at a cost below what
common seed ordinarily sell for. They will be laid down
in Canadian for $1.60 per hundred, in fifty and 100
pound sacks, and will be sold to the farmers of this
county at the same price. Those wanting any of this
cane, kaffir, or hegari seed should see Parker Hanna or
S. E. Allison. It is almost certain that the amount of
seed that the Chamber of Commerce was able to order
will not nearly supply the demand for good seed, and the
principle of "first come, first served," will be followed.
