BY PAT LYNCH This past spring the corn suffered a number of setbacks: We thought you would be interested in our version of what happened.." It won't change anything but will explain it. • During the first' and. second weeks of June, we had 10 to 14 days of cool, drying winds. During this._time,the corn plants lost much of the free' water in the leaf tissue. In some fields this desiccatkfi was bad enough to -kill some corn plants - especially the plants, on high exposed areas. In some fields, herbicides added to the da mage. As the wind blew, it removed the moisture from the plants. The plants tried to .compensate-by--re-rlie . .. -- - ... . the soil. As this moisture was taken up, some of it contained herbicides. This herbicide moved into the corn plants. Generally, this herbicide is broken down by the corn plants. However, since the corn plant was not growing, it wasn't breaking the herbicide down. This herbicide, instead, started to btrrn the leaf tissue. If you had checked your fields closely, you noticed that the .plants on the knolls were being hurt worse than the plants in protected areas near a bush or around the outside of a field. This was because the plants in these tWo areas were protected from the wind. Also, the dead ,plants occurred at random, not one after another as if they were frozen. Then we had two or three nights,of extremely. cold weather below freezing. We all expected frost damage. In fact, when I got up to water the garden in the morning, the garden hose Was frozen. This was right in Stratford. It had to be colder in the country. So why didn't the corn freeze? Because some of the free water in the plant's leaves had been ,removed. Frost damage occurs when. this free water expands and crushes the cell walls in the leaves. However, since this water was partially --Q`° :removed, there was not enough left between the cells to do damage by expanding. Thewater in the cells was now more concentrated and could withstand lower temperatures before they froze. This whole process is called 'hardening.off'. The only areas that were frosted were those low areas -that hid° been.proteeted from the wind the .. past two weeks. The darnai;e in these areas was minimal. So, can we learn anything from this -I think so. From what I saw, - the wind damage was far worse than the cool weather. It drove home to me the fact that we rnust establish wind Teaks. This is the second time in the last"eight"spr ngs in this area that wind has caused considerable damage. The time before was because of blowing soil. Nohail" damage Huron County agricultural represen- tative Don Pullen said that the hail we ex- perient-ed last-weekeri did not bring crop damage but "as you drive through the county you can see where thetspring grain is somewhat' dow,p due to the wind and rain." But he . said this is a normal phenomenon. Pullen said that because of the sunny weather we had last week, there are bumper crops of hay of excellent. quality. "We're finally getting the heat we should have had before,." he said,: - Nowadays there is a trend towards storing haylage instead of hay. Pullen said that haylage can be stored in a silo with 45 to 60 percent Moisture rt• Corn crops are in good shape. Pullen 'Paid that any herbicide injury due to past cold weather •appears to have disap-1 peered .because of the recent warm spell. ° Pullen said that the wheat crops look very promising and should be ready for harvest in early August. The white beans are doing well too. . In the centre and northern' parts of Huron County there is an abundance of grass 'and the Cattle are doing well. by Bertha MacGregor Honors ,bride -elects Robert and Dorothy Taylor opened theirbome On Monday when ° members. and friends df the Carmel Presbyterian, Church assembled to honor two members Beatrice.
