Farmers Institute Reviews Beet Growing And Agricultural Education
The Farmers Forum describes a Monday afternoon session with a slim audience until Jim Maloney and Billie Crabbe arrived. Ebbert praises local leaders, warns against press and pulpit manipulation, and urges careful farming, then experts including Oliver, Amend, Bryant, Comer, and Prof Olin discuss beet cultivation, soil fertility, seed selection, and household science. Evening and next day talks cover seed, can be pests, and agricultural education in schools, with emphasis on practical farming knowledge.

Swink Townsite Sale Draws Odd Crowd Yet Trims Hopes
A Swink townsite sale drew a large diverse crowd on Wednesday, but few looked to speculatively buy lots. People toured foundation holes, tents, and a temporary factory area while barbecue stalls and a circus lemonade drew spectators. The event resembled past Oklahoma booms, with a noisy but modest market.
