Brown county, facing a lou of
85 to 90 per cent in ita small grain
yield, need* dry "farming" weath-
er to that farmers may plant de-
layed row crop* and peanuts where
wheat and oat failures occurred.
W. E. Batis, adminiatraive as-
sistant of the Brown County Agri-
cultural Conservation Association,
said a survey Indicated that not
over 8 to 10 per cent of the oats
survived an "Axis" assault by
drought and green bugs atUcking
simultaneously in a pincers move-
ment.
Too much rain now threatens to
complete the conquest of wheat
and oats. Heavy weed growth due
to the wet weather has become a
"fifth column" ajly of the farm-
er’s other production enemies.
Loss to wheat was estimated at
85 per cent of the entire crop, and
remaining wheat will be of very
poor quality. Tbe plants are only
6 to 8 inches tall and are beset by
rank weeds.
Green Bugs Drowned
Mr. Batis said the rains washed
the green bugs away. He believed
that these bugs really were re-
sponsible for most of the dorught
damage.
"Farmers told me that their
grain would have stood up but for
the bugs.” he said
As soon as the soil dries suffi-
ciently. farmers will plow under
the ruined oats and wheat and sow
row crops — including hegari.
maize, kaffir, feterita, sorghum. Su-
dan. and some com. Others,will
plant peanuts in an effort to meet
the greatly increased Brown coun-
ty peanut quota.
It is rather late for com plant-
ing. and this crop will be cut 50
per cent because the drought de-
layed planting through the usual
season. Some "June" com will be
planted
Tbe planting of peanuts is ad-
vocated where soil conditions per-
mit. The county's 1942 peanut quo-
ta is 13.759 acres, as compared to
some 6.000 acres planted last year
To meet this quota—and the na-
tion's need for peanut oil for war
purpoaes-~all a^UabW land suited
for peanut nfture if needed.
