The long wet period during the months of March, April and the early part of May, threw the farmers far behind with their plowing. Ordinarily the corn crop is entirely planted by the middle of May. There is still a lot of ground to be plowed, it is said. Farmers who have tractors, have installed light on them and are running them all night. One hand runs it dur ing the day and another during the night. wu. County Agent Busche said today that he is kept busy answer.,ig calls from the farmers to help them combat the attack of the chinch bugs, which is becoming dangerous to the crops. While the wheat and rye crop looks good in most cases, a close examination reveals the presence of the chinch bugs and it is feared that the young hugs will hatch out soon, greatly damaging or perhaps ruining the crop. There is also much danger of the young bugs migrating to the corn fields and Mr. Busche is urging the farmers to take steps to prevent the migration.
