"PHANTOM SPEAKS" W .nd W "VAMPIRE GHOST" Weather In Basin Holds Up Planting One of the most backward sea sons seen in the agricultural devel opment ot Klamath county has held up planting this spring. The situation has been relieved with good weather (he last few days, ihe county agent's office advised. the ground is drying out fast and heavy farm work Is now under way Grain planting is almost com pleted for the acreage established foi tills year, with the exception of barley and oats. These grains should all be In within (he next 10 days if the weather holds and farmers contemplate fulfilling the 1P48 heavy acreage goals in barley. Potato planting usually under way In this area between May S and It) has been delayed by about two weeks. Heavy planting Is now under way with approximately 60 to 70 per cent of the crop in. Farmers are not planting up to the total of the potato acreage goals ! for the year. C. A, Henderson, coun I ty agent said, due In part to the backward season, shortage of land j In shape, high rental values, the shortage of good seed and fertilizer and the lack of definite support prices after December 31, 1948. j While the acreage to be planted Is j less than the goal, it Is higher than ! that planted in 1947. Stockmen are having problems ! too. from the delayed growth on j pasture. Early spring feed Is gone ! and the normal carryover of hay has i already been fed out. Although j pastures are not quite ready for ; stock, cattle are necessarily already : being moved. I The season In this area Is later than In many Eastern Oregon places. 55 Per Cent Of Klamath County Voters Turn Out For Primaries It Pays to Use the Want-Ads!
