Peach Crops. Too:
Some Wheat Injured

Although spring farm work is
behind the pace set in former
years, a week or two of good
weather would set Union County
farmers back on schedule, Coun-
ty Agent Frank. Greeneisen said
this week.
Oats planting is the hardest hit
thus far as the wet weather has
made it impossible for many
farmers to get into the fields.
Several farmers south of Milford
Center have their oats already
planted, however. Paul Ryan, for
instance, had his oats in the
ground two weeks ago, the Coun-
ty Agent added.
The rain has also kept the
farmers from doing many of the
jobs usually done early in the
spring, such as hauling manure.
Still Good Chance
Despite these handicaps, if
the oats a be planted there will
be a good chance for a success

''The weather later this spring
and summer will also have a lot

oats CROP" he added.
Corn planting has not been de-
layed, of course, and there is
plenty of time for the corn to
be in the ground as early as it
has been in other years.
The delay in planting depends
greatly on the section of the
county involved. Mr.. Greeneis-
en- reports that several days of
clear weather will be needed be-
fore the farmers in Liberty
Township can get in the fields
while the loose, black soils of the
Darby plains will dry out at once.
Freezes Hit Peaches
Late freezes after early spring
weather did considerable damage
to the peach crop at the OHIO
Orchard near Milford Center, c.
E. Dutton, manager, reported. He
added that since there are usually
five times as many buds as nee
essary there is still a chance for
a good peach crop.
Late-planted wheat is looking
very poor throughout the county,
Mr.. Greeneisen reported, but
most of the wheat planted early
is in good shape. Freezing has
caused most of the damage.
Alfalfa has been heavily hit,
according to reports from farm
ers, MI. Greeneisen declared. The
freezing and thawing has caused
the legumes to heave badly and
the crop will be far below norm
al, he said.

Rental instruments
Mode Available
For New School Bond

With the intentions of recruit
ing a large number of students
for the school band, Bandmaster
Donald Euverard has announced
that all students will be given an
opportunity to enroll in new
band to be formed in the near
future.
While comforting with Supt. H.
w. Carr, it was decided to have
all students scientifically tested
to check their musical ability.
Arrangements will then be made
whereby instruments can be
rented for three months to deter
mine the instrument best suited
to each Individual child and his
interest in it. This method of
starting children on musical in
struments is being widely used
by schools throughout the coun-
try with great success.
Lessons will be offered during
the summer. Now is the logical
time for children to start, and it
will only be a matter of months
before they will be given an op-
portunity to win a chair in the
regular band and to participate
in all of the school band func-
tions.
