Cold Nips Crops in Cal Best Cold Nips Crops in Cal
In California a two day cold snap caused major crop damage especially in the Imperial Valley where temps as low as 24 degrees scorched tomatoes squash and possibly some citrus. Last midwinter valley crop reached 4183 carloads worth 7514648. Citrus fruit could escape further loss today though some areas faced 21 degree lows. Elsewhere temps rose slightly but remained freezing enough to coat puddles with ice and slow activity. In national politics the GOP maps plans for the 1850 Congressional elections in Chicago with a budget near two million dollars approved by the finance committee.
