See post 10.

I agree about grain prices, the fields are generally too wet to sow, even where they aren’t under water.

Heavy snowpack and a late blizzard hurt here, and the bottoms are still inundated.

There is some talk of seeding from the air, but any more rain will make a mess of that and its expensive as all get-out, too. Better buy your grains now, if you can and have a dry place to keep them.

River bottoms all got planted here already, barely. Wet and cool spring. The outfits that do the big bottoms get in there with Challengers,etc. and get their stuff done while the smaller guys on hill ground are waiting for dry weather.

Still some hill ground beans to be planted and now some creek bottom fields will have to be replanted.

And the Missouri ain’t out down here yet.
