Steve Anderson faced a runaway tractor weighing about 7 400 pounds dragging him across a hayfield while he battled swarms of honey bees.

Florence County faces severe hay shortages as drought and pests cut yields. Officials estimate 40 farmers need hay. 1,138 tons are needed to fill 10 first requests.
