Small grain planting is start-
ing aimed at providing early
fall grazing. The early plant-
ing jilan nvnvirlntj n iioiltrn
ntrjiinsfc wintor kfllinir alone
with an adequate fertilizer pro
gram. However tno cany
planted grain is vulnerable to
nrmvwnrm infoafnfinn. "Thn
additional crrazinor is more than
worth the cost and effort of
controlling the worms' accord
ing to J. E. Weaver of Belton.;
The army worms usually ac-
company the showers or rains
in late September or early
October. They are easily con-
trolled by spraying with Sevin
and this chemical has no graz-
ing restriction.
There are several new var-
ieties of small grains available
this year. Recommended wheat
varieties include Caddo
Quanah and Gage. Some seed
of the new short wheat Sturdy
may be available.
The Arkansas variety Ora is
at present the outstanding var-
iety for this area as it has good
leaf rust resistance combined
with good plant type and high
test weight. Other recommend-
ed varieties include New Nor-
tex Alamo-X and Moregrain.
The intermediate winter typ-
es of Barley such as Cordova
Rogers and Zora are the best
for this area as cold hardiness
is not too essential.
Rlhnn and Gator rve are ex
cellent winter forage. However
one needs to recognize tney
tend to head out in February.
Cotton harvest has been mov-
ing at a rapid rate until delay-
ed by the recent showers and
rains. Approximately 2000
bales have been ginned in the
county to date according to
gin reports.
Elmer Beerwinkle of White
Hall is in the process of his
harvest. His yields have been
running about 300 pounds of
lint ner acre on the cotton har
vested to date.
Green cards have been re-
ceived on three bales of Beer-
winkln's cotton with trading
middling 1516 inch light
spot 4.8 micronaire. He ligur-
es the loan price for this cot-
tnn -it 18.45 cents nlus 9.42
cent support payment giving
the total price per pound
at 27.87 cents. Both loan price
and support price are added to
determine the total price re-
ceived for the cotton.
Most of the cotton in the
p.nnntv has been receiving a
good micronaire test. The scale
and value of the micronaire test
includes: 3.0 - 3.2 - minus 90
points 3.3 - 3.4 - minus 30
points 3.5 - 4.9 - plus 20 points
and 5.0 - 5.2 - minus 20 points.
Home gardeners still have
nnninrli timn to make a fall
garden. Recent rains and slight
ly cooler temperatures nave
provided ideal planting condi-
tions. Although gardening is
r.ntnmonlv considered mainly as
a spring and early summer en-
terprize the laii garaen ae-
serves attention too.
Leafy vegetables such as let-
tuce spinach and mustard will
withstand some cold and make
excellent salad greens. With a
warm fall and a late frost pin-
to bean3 squash and sweet
eorn will make. Beets carrots
and turnips are resistant to cold
but will not withstand severe
freezing.
Parsley may be grown in
any good soil and will thrive in
cool weather. With protection
it will survive very cold weath-
er J or a few plants may be pot-
ted and taken indoors to use
for garnishing and seasoning.
Onion sets may also be planted.
Bermudagrass mites are be-
(rinnincr to show in some lawns.
nivrt Wfitsmi of Belton has
part of his yard affected by
this pest. Stunted internouua
aro chai'acteristic symptoms of

ally unhealthy appearance and
make slow growth Individual
mites are difficult to sqe with
