"Not Desperate" Report Suggests The weekly crop report from the Department of Agriculture at Clinton shows that while a considerable number of farm- ers are short of water, condi- tions "are not yet desperate, as those affected are able to secure water within short dis- tances and can make arrange- ments for transportation." The report adds, however, that "the situation will change when cold weather forces live- stock into the stables." Fall wheat, the report con- tinues, is very spotty in the south half of the county on bean land. Some areas show no growth at all, the report says.
