Wilbarger County farmers thresh fast amid dry spell
Dry weather in Wilbarger County boosts threshing speed and grain quality as 130,000 bushels of wheat are purchased by Kell Milling Company and Sewell Grain and Feed. A large grain hold remains with farmers, and some hail-damaged stock lowers quality. Rain is hoped within a week to prevent damage to raw crops.
