Farming notes show strong yields in Red River valley
The Newport area reports favorable rainfall boosting pasture and crops. Bill Dunn’s 90 acre Yellow Dent corn near Charlie yields about 35 bushels an acre with ears measuring 11 and a half inches and 60 grains per row. Cotton looks promising but remains variable with rains, sunflowers and ornamental gourds fascinate locals, and a Gatlin reunion and Old Timers gathering draw community turnout.
