Record Rains 'Solve' Grain Storage Problem,
Cut Plains' Chance at Bumper Cotton Crop
By the Associated Press
Texas farmers are looking for
a whopping cotton crop in the
South Plains They may get it—but
the weather has already whittled
down their chances.
They have so much wheat they
hardly know what to do with it—
but the weather is working over-
time to help solve that problem.
Nightly thunderstorms boiling
deeply into fields of cotton snd
wheat alike.
More rain fell in parts of the
Panhandle last night. Rain al-
ready had set back the wheat har-
vest in that section.
Meanwhile, a farm agent esti-
mated that 300,000 acres of new-
ly planted South Plains cotton has
been ruined or heavily damaged
by storms.
And county agents and county
across the Plains with pounding
hail and driving rain have cut editors estimated high wheat dam-

main concern of thousands
of young men and women who
have finished their four - year
course in high school or college
When these young people make
| their plans for the future, I hope
1 that many of them will turn to-
wards the field of agriculture.
More than at any time in our his-
tory as a nation, the lifeline of the
world — agriculture — offers its
share of opportunities to well-
trained, well - informed men and
women.
But success in farming or its re-
lated fields is still no easy road to
follow. Although modern machines
and higher standards of living on
farms have reached a peak in
many areas, diligent effort and
hard work are still prime req-
i uisites.
Many of the graduates of our
high schools and colleges this year
have had considerable training in
the field of agriculture in the rur-
al high schools, vocational agrieul-
i ture has been a tremendous aid in

farm life Later on. in agriculture

these same persons have taken ad
