Vegetables Hit
bJCo|d Wave;
Prices RISING

NEW YORK, Jan. is (AP).-
Vegetable prices are rising be-
cause Of severe damage to crops
in Texas and. Florida as the
result Of freezing weather, the
Agriculture Department re-
ported today.
Citrus also was badly dam
aged in Texas but apparently
escaped major harm in Florida.
The department called the
situation in Texas Rio Grande
Valley very serious" The
temperature fell to as low as 10
degrees there last week.
The cold wave spread over
100000 acres of vegetable
fields in the valley.
The department said the an
ticipated shortage of supplies
already has been felt on the
market.
High winds added to the
damage to citrus trees in the
Rio Grande Valley. The de-
partment said the loss of trees
under five years old was heavy.
Also severely damaged were
beets, broccoli, carrots, cauli-
flower, lettuce and spinach.
Sweet corn, potatoes, toma-
toes and green peppers which
were above ground will have
to be replanted.
Three successive freeze
damaged Florida's soft vege-
table crops and sent prices up
in producing areas. Last week
snap beans were up to IS a
bushel from $2.25 in middle
cember. Sweet corn rose to 81
a crate, more than double the
pre-freeze level.

They probably won't show
up next year, or even the year

which utilize the science Of

Richard F. Baird, a chief

IF a moderately priced car
could travel in relative silence,
such as the air-conditioned ex-
pensive cars do, the auto in

another positive advancement"
