Waterfield Seeks Farm Policy Shifts in CRP Reform
Republican candidate Dick Waterfield campaigns in Wellington with State Rep. Warren Chisum to push major changes in national agriculture policy. He cites Conservation Reserve Program reforms to protect rural counties, promote productive farming, and argues for a farm bill written by experienced farmers. Waterfield also backs rural development, anti-drug measures, gas and oil incentives, and limited two year terms for Washington officials.

Firebush blooms spark North Texas nursery sales surge
Firebush, a new bedding plant, boosts nurseries in North Texas after a wet spring. Dr. Steve George notes 25 percent dip in mid March to April sales. Calloway's president James Estill says stores sold out quickly, with 8 000 chains sold in the Metroplex. In drier areas, San Antonio growers report 10 percent gains. Firebush adapts from a South Texas perennial to North Texas annual, thriving in heat and drought. Planted as late as mid July, earlier planting yields best results.
