Potatoes Negotiate
Night Safely, Beans
Virtually Destroyed

The greatly feared combination last
night Of clear sky. a practically still
atmosphere, 32-decrec weather in
Brownsville followed by sunshine today,
failed TO destroy the crops of vegetables
in the Brownsville area, but beans sus-
taincd such damage as VIII cut the pro-
duction Of that crop down to about ten
per cent.
The foregoing summary il the result
of a survey of local conditions completed
at an early hour this afternoon by W.
+. McDavitt. Brownsville commission
merchant. who visited the various plan
tations down the river, the Little Indi-
ana district. and Fl Jardin farms.
Mr. McDavitt declared that irish pota-
toes. which form one of the largest
crops in the immediate vicinity Of
Brownsville. are damaged hardly at all.
Tomatoes, he declared. are also safe,
while no other vegetation, with the eX-
ccptioa Of the bean crop. of which there
were hundreds of acres in this district,
were damaged appreciably.
Minimum temperatures here last night
ranged from 3l.50 at $50 to 32 degrees.
FROM MtEctNtN anu " tSldtn NuuaN
came the report that virtually everything
that was out Of the ground was destroy
ed ty low temperatures and frost last
night. In some sections Of Hdalgo
county the mercury went a. low as p
during the night.
From san Benito comes q report that
is not 80 encouraging as that from the
l.. 1.
the fact was not definitely established
this afternoon, il was believed that all
beans were destroyed. and that potatoes.
if rot destroyed. were seriously dam
aged around San Bcnito, as were toma-
toes and the lesser vegetable crops. A
careful survey of the situation in that
district is being made by San Benito
commission men this afternoon.
m the Harlingen district the condi-
tions are believed 10 be similar 10 those
around San Benito
From the Tandy station district, eight
miles up the river from Brownsville,
comes the report that tomatoes which
were not covered and otherwise protect
ed were lost. and that the irish potato
crop in that section probably was cut
down about fifty per cent.
Little or no concern Is felt anywhere
in the Valley over the damage that may
have been done to cabbage. owing TO the
market on the crop. However. il i
stated that wherever damage 10 heads
occurred. the outer leaves could be torn
off. The freeze is not believed TO have
done more than to destroy the outer COW
erings.
Clyde Tandy. Of the Tandy Station dis
trict. said this afternoon at = o'clock
that il was difficult TO estimate the loss
on tomatoes. as some patches were total
~ destroyed. while others got through
all right He confirmed the total loss
Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1922-03-03

Of the bean crop in that neighbour God,
and said that everything tenderer than
beans was destroyed, including squash.
okra, cantaloupes and cucumbers. He
estimated the potato loss roughly at 80
per cent. stating that in some fields they
were frozen to the ground. while in oth-
ers they are standing well. He said
there was one case Of a grower who lost
his entire crop. while an adjoining field
was safe.
Generally speaking, farmers in the inn
mediate Brownsville district were great
IN pleased today that the freeze had
wrought no greater damage than has
apparently been done. Many Of them
will rcplant "A great many potatoes and
beans. believing that they will still be
able TO produce a crop before competing
sections up the state.
SmudEing I'D citrus orchards through
out the Valley, and other prccauti onary
methods. helped to save them from pos
sible damage. though il is reported that
there will perhaps be a reduction in the
crop next year as the result Of buds be-
ing destroyed.
