New rice variety Shoemed named by Crowley Experiment Station shows promise to meet long standing farm needs. Early indications suggest improved yield potential and shatter resistance, with characteristics aimed at easier production and harvest.
Field notes report that several rice varieties performed well in trials over multiple years, with Rexoro and Fortuna V highlighted for yield and eating quality. Milling tests indicate good milling behavior, though data are incomplete, and future official tests are planned to validate these results.
The report details rice seed trials and harvesting outcomes from Crowley and surrounding areas. It notes varieties from the Philippines and local plots, with yields including 29 sacks of 20 pounds and 63 acres planted. Farm partners, individuals, and cooperatives are named, highlighting seed increase efforts and regional cooperation.
A damaged, panicked plea circulates praising Franklin D. Roosevelt and James M. Garner of New York. It calls for party membership and fundraising to support Democratic leaders and national headquarters, with scattered names and slogans, and references to a Saray's Cafe.
Fragmentary local notes recall villagers including Mrs H, Wally, Clara Rance, and a Junior Mobo at a school event. Mentions of a gate at WHER Gemee and neighbors George Satins and Maule appear among scattered observations and weekend social references.
