Wheat vote shock. Farm Bureau plans urged after victory
The Farm Bureau scored a decisive win in the wheat referendum while the Farmers Union suffered a setback. Counties reported varied results with Collingsworth voting 171 to 260 against and Cot tle 325 to 78 for a high 80.2 percent. Officials note some voting irregularities and ongoing debate over who should plant wheat. Next Friday Wellington will honor Jennie Holcomb Texas Mother of the Year with a Kiwanis guest speech. Weather chatter and forecasts hint at larger rains in the coming weeks as residents remark on recent showers and predicted storms.
