The corn crop in Huron County
looks good at this stage, °but it
needs at least another month of
frost free weather to mature
properly, according to Don
Pullen, Huron County agriculture
representative.
"The corn isn't as. far advanced •
as it was this time last year and
the cold nights aren't helping,"
he said. "We need more heat if it
is going of mature properly for
grain."
The stand is good and the plant
population is good. If we get the
warm weather immediately or
very shortly there shouldn't be
any problem," said Mr. Pullen.
The heavy rains on the
southern edge of the County have

caused considerable damage to
the white bean crop, The
Vsborne Township area received
slightly less than 3 inches of rain
on the weekend.
"If has been quite serious. The
weather conditions have been
ideal for white bean mould and
we will likely have our share of
it," Mr. Pullen said.
A lot of farmers sprayed for the
mould, Mr. Pullen said, but the
treatment is only good for .two
weeks. Now it is pretty well past
the, stage where it can be treated.
But conditions north of the
'Hensall area. and through central
Huron are fairly good as this area
hasn't received near as much
rain, he said.
