Recent storms and backward weather of the present season should not result in any handicap handi-cap to beet growers of this district dis-trict if past planting experiences can be relied upon. On the contrary con-trary a late spring like the present pres-ent can, and has produced some of our biggest yields In the past. This reassuring word was issued is-sued today by W. Y. Cannon, production manager of the Utah- Idaho Sugar Company. Mr. Cannon Can-non cited the year of 1938, when 85 per cent of all beets grown for the company were planted after April 15, for a yield of 15.3 tons to the acre, the highest In recent years. Similar conditions in 1941 resulted in a hlgher-than-average yield of 13.9 tons to the acre, he added. The years 1939 and 1942, with early springs, and with nearly 50 per cent of the beets planted before April 15, produced below average yields of sugar beets, Mr. Cannon pointed out. "Early planting," ... an Important Im-portant factor In beet yields . . . does not go by the calendar. It may mean planting in March or early In April, in an early spring, but it certainly means something else in a late spring like the present. Paradoxical as it may sound, the very lateness of this spring will permit more growers than average to practice early, or timely planting this year, and to obtain maximum yields, If favorable growing conditions follow. Timeliness in planting cannot be determined by the calendar. It means planting at the earliest favorable opportunity under the right conditions of seedbed and weather. There is no advantage whatever, and there may be a real disadvantage, In rushing planting in March or early April if the season is backward and conditions are not right. The record seems to indicate that calendar date has little to do with the resulting yield; timeliness, timeli-ness, on the other hand, is all-Important. all-Important. This year's late spring has permitted most farmers to com plete most of the work of soil preparation while the moisture is still in the ground. The first few days of good weather will permit them to give their fields an additional harrowing to eliminate eli-minate weed growth later, and the ground will be ideal for planting, with Just the right amount of surface moisture to assure good germination of seeds. "The best advice to beet growers grow-ers now is to realize that this year is just one of those years when everything is late . . . shrubs, trees, grasses, and pren-nlals pren-nlals of all kinds. If your beets and other seed crops are not in, don't worry. Take time now to make the best seedbed possible, then plant the first favorable opportunity. If we do this we are taking advantage of this excellent ex-cellent soil moisture but if we start rushing preparations and plant too wet our beet crop will start off under difficulties. Take time to do the Job right and don't worry about the calendar." There will be a meeting for all mothers of playschool children Friday, April 21, at 3 p. m. in the play school roomV The meeting is for the purpose of arranging for costumes for the spring operetta, op-eretta, which will be presented early in May.
