Max Moritz of Hutchinson notes Adams County as a bright spot in the wheat belt with potential 30 bushel per acre yields, barring rust. A bee expert predicts alfalfa blooms may be late, delaying honey flow, while corn planting nears completion after spring rains.

Lawmakers Split Over Admin Bill Provisions on Suits and Wages
Lawmakers failed to amend the administration bill on tax recovery lawsuits and wage provisions. Gifford sought to strike the suit prohibition, but was defeated. Andresen won a clause preventing bans on dairy sales within authorized regions, while other proposals to add wage mandates or limit consumer prices for AAA commodities failed. The bill endorses Wallace’s ever normal granary, export debentures, and McNary Haugen export subsidies with quotas and import taxes.
