Broome county Farm bureau check of farm conditions today disclosed a slash of "at least 50 per cent" in the hay crop, representing serious loss to farmers and almost certain rise in hay prices unless continued rains improve the second crop. County Agent William A. Moore said that a check on countywido conditions indicates that "the en hay crop is off about 60 per cent, and is worse than it was in 19.1S a bad year." County hay production approxi mates 90,000 tons of mixed hay alfalfa annually and this year, with about 85,000 acres planted, it seems likely. Farm bureau at taches said, that the usual average be "cut down seriously." For example, the first crop ot alfalfa hay was reported "ex tremely bad" with about 500 acres planted.

In 1935, which was the last year of the Federal crop census, the yield In Broome was two tons to an acre. This year will be clipped to one, farmers estimated. Fact that the alfalfa growth is short but thick this year makes It difficult to estimate the total yield accurately, but one thing is certain and that is unless rain is experienced the second cutting will be "way oft" a slash of at least 60 per cent, Chris Ayres, principal supervisor of the county's agricultural program estimated. Because ot marked shortage in the first hay cutting, farmers today had turned to planting millet sudan grass as an emergency, while other fed cattle the last of their silage which they had hoped hold until later in the fall. As a result, these farmers will forced to buy hay unless rain puts new life into the second crop, agriculturists pointed out.

Still others are resorting to late corn planting in a move to grow silage. Some have plowed their fields from, which the first hay crop nas been cut, to plant corn for ensilage purposes. Farm bureau officials warned farmers turning to sudan grass as an alternative, that It Is dangerous to feed it while damp. In pas tures, sudan grass should be dry before cattle are allowed to feed on It and It should be cured thoroughly after being cut before It is fed In the manger because moisture renders It poisonous, they explained. AH varieties of potatoes indicate reduction in yield ot from 20 to per cent, It was explained, with many acres replanted because they first were planted in dry weather and hot ground during the latter part or May or early June.

In 1915, the rounty's potato cron amounted to 377, 9113 bushels and a drop of at least 20 per cent Is expected this year, and the figure "may run considerably higher than Ihls." Oals, a substantial crop In Broome, usually produce about bushels. Acreage, according to the last Federal checkup, tola's 9,115 and a "distinct shortage" in total yield has been indicated so far this year. With the plants Just starting to "head out," agriculturists said the crop probably will be "way under the 19,14 harvest' 'which was about 275,000 bushels. Early oats. In particular, have been seriously retarded and Lite oats probably will not yield up to par although they are better In coloring and body.

Generally speaking, it was estimated the yield of late oats will be from 30 to 60 per cent off, although rain within a week might Improve the situation. On the other hand, many oat. fields have progressed so rapidly that they are about ready for cutting next month. Corn for all purposes "looks fairly good," a quick check re vealed, and farmers were reluctant preaict me nnai outcome, even though marked improvement has been observed during the last few warm nights, they said. It was estimated that about.

8,000 acres in the county were planted this year to corn, which has stood the drought better than other crops. Several farmers have planted wheat but "not ton much" was sown this year. What has been planted looks good, they added. Verdicts in Accident Damage Suit Set Aside Older bv Sunreme Court Justice Andrew J.
