The stockholders' committee of the

At the recommendation of the

no fund available for purposes of
this kind.
The directors la a meeting yesterr
day afternoon adopted a resolution
endorsing the proposal that Amarillo
bo mads a stop on the derby route,
end also made the recommendation
that the city put up the funds.
This action does not asaure ths
city of being designated as a stop;
it does, however, place Amarillo in a
position to make a bid for the desic-
nation.
The race starts from Agua Cali-

KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 7-
While government agricultural offi-
tion campaign in the boutb west to-
cinto opened a wheat acreage reduc-
day, farmers neared the end of their
1830 harvest, with much of the crop-
which may reach 275,000,000 bushels
—unsold.
Led by Alexander Legge, chairman
of the federal farm board, and Ar-
thur M. Hyde, secretory of agricul-
tare, the party of government offi*
clals started their trip at Hastings,
Neb., today. The party, including
members of the bureau of agricul-
tural economics, will visit five states.
At meetings at Haya and Dodge
City, Kans., the effieinia. whe are
understood to favor a 10 par cent
reduction in wheat acreage planted
this full, will appear on programs
.with Governor Clyde M. Reed of
Kansas, who doee not believe reduc-
tion of acreage to a just solution
of the low price problem.
“We are not going to tell the farm-
er how to run his business," Hyde
said as he left here to join the tour.
“We are simply going to leave the
farmer with the facte of the situa-
tion and let him use hie own judg-
ment.”
“It will hot and cun not protect the
farmer from aituations for which he
himself to responsible,” the secretary
declared.
The harvest neared completion
throughout the area this week, with
intest estimates equaling or better-
ing expectations. Kansas, however,
had a probable crop of 130,000,000
bushels against a June estimate of
137,000,000 bushels. The per acre
yield this year waa near 11 bushels.
Other states reported total and per
acre yields as follows: Texas— 29,-
000,000 to 30,000,000, 11 to 13 per
acre; Oklahoma—32,000,000, from 8
to 25 bushels per acre; Missouri— 20,
000,000, yields from 20 to 30 bushels
in many sections; Nebraska, 15 bu-
ahela indicated for a total of more
than 60,000,000.
Sunday afternoon, though it ruined
herd enough at Washburn to make

The weather will be continued

temperature continuing to run above

tered ahowera at various points in
the Panhandle.
For the last two weeks the gan-
