Hot, Humid Weather Great On Corn Crop By United Press International LAFAYETTE, Ind. (UPD — The hot, humid weather may be hard on human dispositions but it’s great for the corn crop. Agricultural statistician Robert E. Straszheim in his weekly Indiana crop Report from Purdue University said the development of corn was “accelerated by the hot, humid weather. '5 Straszheim also reported that the wheat harvest “surged forward with ideal harvesting weather,” and that “with the recent increase in soil moisture plus the high temperature and humidity of the past week, most crops have shown rapid growth.” “Hot, humid weather speeded harvest of small grains last week.” the report said, “Six days were considered favorable for field work which consisted mostly of completing small grain harvest and baling hay and straw. “Both topsoil and subsoil moisture were considered adequate in nearly all areas.. Pasture conditions, rated fair to mostly good, remained at about the same ’’level as last week. "Wheat . harvest ■■ • moved ahead of the progress of last year and average. About 95 per cent of the crop was harvested by Saturday, compared with 90 per cent last year and 75 per cent average. Oat harvest also moved rapidly ahead, with the crop 70 per cent harvested. This compares with 65 per cent last year and 60 per cent average. “Seventy per cent of the corn has tasseled. This is above both the unusually rapid rate of development last year, when 50 per cent was tasseled at this time, and the average 40 per cent. About 40 per cent of the corn was silked as of the weekend. “Soybeans —also are developing rapidly with 45 per cent having set pods.” The report also said that 55 per cent of the mint crop has been Cut, compared with a usual 50 per cent and with 45 per cent this time last year.
