Brown Spots In Wheat Fields:
There has been quite a lot
of concern during the past
week about the brown spots
showing up in many of the
wheat fields over the county.
This situation exists in ev-
ery area of the county, but is
probably a little worse in the
northwest corner.
In the fields that have been
checked, it seems that the
main problem is a lack of
moisutre. In most fields it is
fairly evident where the snow
was blown off of an area.
There are some brown wheat
mites showing up in the wheat
which do not help the situation
any. The dry soil conditions
and the damage of the brown
mite are probably the two fac-
tors that are causing the
brown areas.
The brown wheat r~ite ia an
insect that damages wheat
mostly in dry weather such as
we have this year. and is about
the size of a comma in a regu-
lar newspaper. It is very diffi-
cult ~0 identify without a mag-
nifying glass.
Although this insect is an
important pest to wheat, the
wheat will usually outgrow the
damage caused by it if suffi-
cient moitsure is ava!lab!e.
In most cases the wheat in
the brown areasis not dead
and if we could get some mois-
ture in the near f,~tm'o thi'~
probably would solve most of
the pr(fiJ[ems for the present.
Rabies, A Threat.
to Farm Animal;:
There has been increasing
attention given to thre~t of
rabid animals attacking people:
and pets in "~Icwe]l Cou.~ty. es-
pecially since several positive
cases have been found last
fall and this spring.
Dr. Robert Simon, Mankato,
has sent in 5 skunks since the
first of the year. that have
been rabid, in addition to the
cases that were found last
year, and several pc@pie in the
county have had to take the
rabies treatment after being
exposed to rabid animals.
Pets, such as dogs and cats,
should he vaccinated for rabies
to prevent them taking the
disease, since they do come in
contact fairly often with wild
animals such as skunks.
Although rabies is not limited
to a specific season, most
cases are observed in the
spring and early fall. So now
is a good time to get your
pets vaccinated.
There are two recognizable
types of rabies, Animals with
the "dumb" type are sluggish
and have difficulty in swallow-
ing because of throat muscle
paralysis. Reaction to the
"mad dog" type is more vio-
lent. The animal loses all
sense of caution or fear and
will attack anything or anyone
they contact.
Symptoms of rabies are not
consistent, but the first notice-
able sign could be a change in
the pet's behavior pattern.
If a pet should bite a person,
confine it for further observa-
tion -- don't kill it. Wash the
person's wound with soap and
water and get the victim to a
medical doctor as soon as
possible.
If a wild animal is suspected
of having rabies, don't nmtil-
ate the head, but kill it and
take it to your veterinarian
for confirmation as to whether
it has rabies.
Strengthening Agriculture
At a Pratt County Farmers
Union meeting last night, Con-
gressman Bob Dole (R-Karts),
a member of the House Com-
mittee on Agriculture, said,
"What is especially alarming
in agriculture is the increase
!which occurred in farm debt.
:According to the President's
economic report, combined
real estate and other debt of
farmers increased $4,2 billion
during 1966 (from $41.6 to
$45.8). This works out to an
average of $1,220 increased in-
debtedness per farm: whereas
the real dollar increase in net
income per farm amounted to
only $323.
"Naturally some farmers
would be willing to endure ad-
dltional indebtedness when in-
curred under a program of
investment calculated to im-
prove future net income from
expanded or more efficient
farm operations. However, the
record over the past six years
does not reveal improvement

in net income, commensurate
with increased indebtedness.
The accumulated net income
~9~0 farm improvement over
for the past six years
amounted to $5,290. At the
same time, net indebtedness
per farm increased $4,540,
leav/ng a net income excess of
only $750 for the six-year per-
led.
"It is recognized that while
farm debt has been going up,
farm equity has been going up
even more. But most of this
increased equity represents in-
flated farm land values. Al-
though these may offer a
source of comfort to farm land
owners, the fact remains that
the farmers must pay off in-
debtedness, Without adequate
net income to do so, he is left
with no choice except to liqui-
date some of his equity or go
out of business.
Looking at the farm econo-
my as a whole, net farm in-
come (in terms of inflated dol-
lars rather than real dollars)
increased by $900 million. At
the same time, total farm debt
increased by $4.2 billion. And
almost all ($820 million) of the
$900 million increase came
from increased federal govern-
ment payments to farmers --
not from improvement in the
market prices of their pro-
ducts."
