July rainfall devastates Maryland crops with $1.06 million loss
A survey shows Maryland farmers lost over 21 million dollars statewide due to record July rains of 1945. Tomatoes and tobacco suffered the heaviest damage with 56 and 36 percent losses respectively, while wheat and cucumbers also declined. Corn stayed largely unaffected. The State Farm Bureau and State Grange urge federal relief based on average production as price adjustments won’t compensate. Additional continuation note on Page 8.
