Under the instruction. of Mrs. Beese, Huron Sands, a Drapery -Sheers Making Course will begin the first Farmers not delayed by weather BY JEFF SEDDON Cool weather that -has dampened the effects of spring in Huron County has not caused farmers any delays in getting crops in the ground. Not yet that is. Mike Miller, a crop specialist with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food office in Clinton, said Friday that cool air temperatures have not caused any delays in spring planting but said all that could change if the weather doesn't improve in the next week or two. Miller said the cool temperatures that have been disheartening to many outdoor enthusiasts have not created many problems for farmers. He said lenghty periods of sunshine during the month and minimal rainfall combined to counteract cool air temperatures. Miller explained that the early growth of crops depends heavily on rainfall and soil warmth. He said that minimal rainfall allowed soil .to - dry so that farmers could get on the land. Once the seeding is complete germination depends on warm soil temperatures. While air temperatures were brisk most of May frequent periods of sunshine warmed the soil enough • to allow ger- mination to begin. Miller said that on a cool, sunny day soil temperatures would probably be higher than air temperatures. He added that if May had been soggy as well as cool farmers may have had serious delays in planting. But the agricultural community may not be out of the woods yet. Miller said that once most crops grow to about an inch above the soil their dependence on air temperatures gets greater. He added that the white bean crop, which normally gets planted early in June, requires relatively warm temperatures for ger- mination. It is that crop, white beans, that could be delayed if temperatures don't improve in the next week or two. Miller said areas of the county With short growing seasons, the Brussels, Walton area, could suffer serious delays. He said farmers in that area normally like to have their bean crop sowen by early June. He noted that many farmers the northern reaches of the county will be ready to plant the beans as soon as the weather improves. Some delays in planting were experienced for. farmers sowing grains according to Miller. He said cool temperatures may have added to that delay" but the, only problem created will be a logistical one. He said spraying, procedures will be thrown off a bit by the weather pattern causing little more than in- convenience. The crop specialist . said most farmers time their planing procedures so that all spraying can be done in continuous fashion but delays may force them to abandon spraying until late crops mature enough. The problem caused by delay in spring planting won't be evidenced until fall. A wet fall could keep farmers from harvesting some crops because of soggy field conditions. Cold air temperatures in the fall could also damage sensitive crops. Miller said that some market gardeners are concerned about the cool temperatures, He said some vegetables are "A superb collection of fine furnitureat suprisingly affordabje prices" Father's Day is coming!
