In 1913 grain sorghum crops maturedin every county in Kansas and Oklahoma in which theywere planted—not on every farm, to be sure, but for thefailure there was a reason not to be attributed to the crop.The varieties of grain sorghums are numerous. Thereis no ground for contention as to which is the best. Eachhas its particular adaptability, and there is one or morefor every section. The grain sorghums meet t
