had been planted before heavy
rains forced equipment out of
the fields. There is little now
to indicate unusual or excessive
rotting of seed in the ground,
or to what extent replanting
will be neceaary.
Seed la normally treated to
prevent attack by fungus prior
to germination, and a certain
percentage of lota la normal. A
delay in planting does tend to
upset the schedule, with con
sequent bunching at harvest
season, but cannery field and
processing supervisors are ac
customed to handling problems
of this sort. With three weeks
of the planting season remain
ing there it opportunity for re
covery of much of the lost time.
It is unlikely that rains oc
curring since planting will have
had any marked effect on most
fertilizers already applied. Nit
rogen is the only element read
ily leached from the soil, and
there has not been enough time
or warmth to promote exten
sive change in this element
Leading cannera in the Salem
area are not too seriously coo'
cerned up to the present time
in the progress of planting
sweet com. The planting sea
son varies, but with some pro
cessors, normally extends
through June 25, depending on
the processing schedules of the
individual canneries. There is
yet little evidence of rotting.
and while the germinated corn
is making little top growth,
root system development is pro
gressing. Extensive replanting
should not be necessary, assum
ing favorable weather condi
tions from now on.
Even-with present conditions.
which admittedly are not aa
favorable aa in many years, It
la reasonably certain that
Northwest cannera will produce
all of the canned corn and
beana this year that can be
effectively marketed., While
May 1 stocks of canned green
beans In cannera hands were
low, due to an abnormal pro
duction decline in 1952, nation
al stocks of canned com were
more than twice aa large aa a
a year ago, and the largest for
that date for many years. West
em stocks were about 24 per
cent larger than a year ago,
Stocks of canned peas, while
22 per cent smaller nationally
than a year earlier, were about
the same tn the West, -ana were
substantially larger than any
other recent year. There Is no
probability that grocery store
shelves will become bare ot
that prices to consumers will
rise substatlonally in the for
