FR0STS HURRY UP
CHEROKEE HARVEST

TAHLEQUAH 49, A heavy frost fell
over this county recently and much
Ice was evident in exposed pieces with
a low temperature. A light frost came
several days ago but not enough to
damage growing vegetables however,
the recent one has cut down all fall
garden vegetables and pasture grasses
and will lessen the value Of the al
ready short, pastures so that it will be
necessary to begin feeding at a much
earlier date than in normal seasons
when the first killing frosts range
from the first to the tenth Of Novem-
Der. The frost came as a surprise 10
many farmers, and they are now hurry
ing to get potatoes dug, and stored
from the cold.
Despite the fact that the prolonged
dry spell has damaged the pastures
and outside range as well. cattle have
kept up well and are in good shape to
start with the winter. Not many cat
tie are seen on the farms. The low
prices having discouraged the farmers
in the growing of livestock. However,
there is a strong reaction along this
line and many are buying cows and
heifers with the idea OF getting back
to the plan of growing what cattle the
farm pastures and rough feed will
carry through the winter.
