"A lot of farmers may go out this year," he added. The moisture is down a good four inches, but the top 2'2 inches are dry. This is particularly critical to the beets, since they are planted 1 and inches deep. "If we don't get any storms by the middle of May we might be in big trouble," warned Okada. In order for the seeds to germinate they must have water but irrigation will put too much on them, so the farmers will be forced to sprinkle. The first sprinkling leaves a baked crust on che surface which has to be broken up by a second application. This means even more expense to the farmer when you consider the added labor and time. Okada remembers the drought of 1954 as being bad, but back then he didn't have the modern equipment to cope with the problems. Floats and harrows were what they made the seed beds with. Today Okada and his neighbors use big rotova-tor- s, brillian packers, and power harrows to break up the clay loam soil that clods easily, but lends itself to beet production. "This has been an uphill fight all season, it's been like pushing a peanut up Pike's Peak with your nose," Okada related. "I would say we are working the ground two or three times more than normal because of the lack of moisture in the soil. I would guess that our expenses this year will be at least 10 percent more than last year," so says Junior Okada of Penrose. Okada, along with Beb, Kenge and Tetsu Okada, n and operate a farm in Penrose. They have 125 acres of beets, 60 acres of potatoes, 20 acres of onions, 50 acres of alfalfa, 30 acres of corn, and the rest in wheat and barley. "We have been working the ground for two days and waiting for rain for five, then working the ground again," Okada said. "We started working the ground March 1 and we planted grain on March 9 this year," he added. By contrast, the Okadas started working the ground March 28 last year and planted April 2.
