Crop Report by G- W. Montgomery With a total rainfall of 8.60 inches for October and 6,3 inches of snow recorded to date for the County, farmers are experiencing extreme difficulty in harvesting root and corn crops. To date 123 cars or 6,049 tons, of sugar beets have been shipped from the County, Approximately 2|3 of the crop still remains to be liar- vested, Because of oversize, water, core and root rot approximately 50% of the turnip crop will, only be suit­ able for livestock teed. Many fields of corn intended for silage still remain unharvested, very little husking corn has been picked to date.' Approxi­ mately 50-60% of the white • bean crop remains unharvested and can now be written off as a complete loss. Very little fall plowing has been done and livestockbecause of the snow have had to be stabled earlier than usual. <? i i i ■ ’*1 V.
