FREEZE DANGER
ISN'T OVER
_
Holt countyans kept their
fingers crossed Monday night
as the mercury tumbled down
ward and threatened a freeze,
which would have been disas
terous to the fruit crop and
tender vegetation.
But a cloud cover moved in
to the region and stopped short
the mercury’s descent. The
lowest reading during the
night was 35 degrees — 3 de
grees above freezing.
Having weathered the
scare, folks were beginning
to breath easier, but the
weatherman promptly warn
ed that the frost danger isn't
over. Fresh in the minds of
most folks is the combina
ation snow and sleet storm
of May 28, 1947.
Precipitation during the past
7-day period has netted .55 of
an inch— .36 of which fell last
Thursday. Slight precipitation
has been recorded on 3 days
since.
Meanwhile, the corn planting
season is getting into full
swing. Most farmers report
the top of the ground is rather
dry due to a moisture defi
ncy.
