The Wingham Advance-Times, 1972-10-26, Page 1411 *Ober -26; -10 t Advan�ce5mes, Thursday OMEL,UTE XL -12 Saves time, sous work, Weighs only (I•bar ' lbs and as chain) Weather continues bid for Huron form crops Almost every crop normally grown in Huron County suffered from the vagaries of weather during the past season, and now late corn crops are being dam- aged by high winds, not to speak of early snow. This is the word from Mike Mil- ler, associate agricultural repre- sentative for Huron County, who said last week the weather has been "nickle and diming the farmer to death" all summer and fall. • A wide range of crops ranging from corn to hay and vegetables, principally tomatoes, suffered from a stiff late frost. Then a wet windy summer turned the nor- mally high quality malting bar- ley crop into low grades, with a great deal of it being converted into feed. Last week's flurries of soft snow threatened the late corn crops, many of them later than ever owing to the extensive re- seeding that was done last spring. White beans have been another disaster area for some sections of the county with an estimated 20 per cent of the 54,000 acres still in the fields. About 10 per cent of the crop could be written off, and that's 10 per cent of $7,000,000 worth raised last year. In addi- tion to field losses, quality of beans harvested is down, with a serious increase in moisture Con- tent. Penalties for wet beans could cost the grower up to 30 cents a hundredweight, Mr. Mil- ler, believes. ::i:{::ii f'fi`tie 4-."' . `i" A. y: PEKO UNIVERSAURACT'OR CAB ForTractorS in the 40=80 H.P.
