RISING MERCURY LESSENS FEARS OF NEW FROST Farmers and Truck Owners Meet Damage Heroically; $1,000,000 Dsmage. Farmers and truck growers of Indiana today were heroically starting to repair the damage, estimated at more than $1,000,000 caused by frost Sunday night. Later reports bear out early estimates of the loss. Some frost was reported Monday night, according to J. H. Armington, Government meteorologist, but for the most part it was" light. South Bend again had killing frost. Frost may occur tonight in low places, but temperature is rising gradually, Armington said. Lowest temperature in the last twenty-four hours tvas 40 at 6 a. m., about 6 degrees above Sunday night’s lowest. It was still 16 degrees below normal. Vincennes, Bloomington, and Evansville reported they escapted frojt Monday night. The weather bureau received many calls fro mfarmers Monday. Tomato plans, com, beans, melons, and some fruits were hardest hit. Some truck gardeners and florists near the city protected plants by covering them with newspapers. Grapes suffered damage and flowers were blighted. I A Tipton (Ind.) farmer reported 180 acres of tomato-pants ruined. M. M. Justin, agricultural statistician, began a surVey to ascertain the approximate frost damage. He was to cover a area northeast of Indianapois today, from Richmond toward Ft. Wayne. Wednesday he will visit the southern section. Damage probably will reach sl,* 000,000. That is a small sum compared to total value of Indiana crops wihch is near $300,000,000 annually," Justin said. "The tomato crop, alone, is usually worth about $1,000,000." LOSS TOTALS MILLIONS B n United Prcat CHICAGO, May 28.—Farmers throughout the middle West have lost millions of dollars due to frost damage to growing crops during the unprecedented cold snap of the last three days, crop experts estimated today. Both fruits and grains were heavily hit, crop reports from all sections show. Conservative estimates of the wheat and corn damage were placed at 25 to 30 per cent. Fruit crops were even more seriously injured. In several sections of the rich corn belt, entire planting of anew crop will be necessary, it was reported to brokers. This will bring a late maturnty with danger of autumn frosts. APPROPRIATION NEEDED Unless additional appropriation is assigned the city engineer’s office, the force of draftsmen at work on flood prevention plans must be eliminated or reduced, Frank C.
