Heavy Damage To Crops from Rain in Mouston County
A four day deluge damaged Mouston County crops, especially Spanish peanuts and cotton. Spanish peanuts, about a fifth of acreage, were nearly ready when rain delayed harvest and sparked sprouting in the ground. Boll weevils attacked cotton, boll rot appeared, and peanut worms thrived in hot wet weather. Poisoning lagged due to shortages of Cryolite and Kryocide, with peak applications expected later this week.
