tected produce.
Beans Ready tv Pick
Mr. McDavttl said souk beans
were just ready to begin picking
next week He said in many fields,
however, the seed has Just oeen
planted and will not be hurt. It
will be possible to plant and pro
duce a bean crop alter the present
cold—with the danger of a low
price when it is produced.
W. D Googt. m charge of the
U. S.-Texas market news bureau
here said that if temperatures >>uch
as are forecast occur that the beet,
carrot, and cabbage crops will be
damaged.
Extent of damage to them will
depend on the nature of the thaw,
and other conditions generally.
Mr. Googe had reports showing
temperatures of 16 degrees in the
Wuiter Garden and 18 degrees at
Robs town. This indicates prac
tical all crop there will be wii>od
out. leaving little competition for
any Valley produce that weathers
the cold.
In checking up on the citrus
situation hi the Valiey The Herald
was mformed that there Is a sert
ous possibility of the crop for 1933
34 being cut into by the cold.
A crop of around 20.000 cars had
been forecast.
Bloom Is Threatened
It is practically certain that most
ol the present early bloom on the
trees will be killed, but the fruit
trees will bloom again in time to
produce unless the bud wood, or
fruit wood is damaged
Officials of the Texas Citrus
Fruit Growers Exchange at Mission
said temperatures of 26 or less to
night will undoubtedly damage the
budwood, and seriously cut into the
1933-34 crop of fruit
Meantime Valley citrus growrers
and packing plants were putting
ever> facility at work today to get
the present fruit off the trees and
into storage.
There are about 200 carloads of
fruit on the trees in the Valley, it
was estimated, and this fruit will
be damaged bj such cold as is lore
cast. A large pari ot it will be in
packing plants by tonight Small
citrus trees will be damaged some,
but in mast parts of the Valley ,
they are banked, and the loss will
not be permanent.
