With little snow coverage, farm lands were either bare or covered uith sheet ice the greater part oi the Wilder and early spring. The total snowfall for the winter amounted to 45 inches as compared with a 10 year average of 100 inches.

The rainfall in Sep- tember was 4.72 inches wlhich was .58 above average. ‘Octolber was exceedingly dry with 1.20 inches of rain recorded, and with the ex- ception of October in 1920 this was the least rain ever recorded for this month. A late June frost occurred on June 8th and the first fall frost on September 9th. This made a frost-free period of 113 days which is the shortest on record at this Station. Field Crops In general all farm crops, with the exception of hey, were mod- erately good in 1941. The dry sum- mer season of 1946 was unfavor- able for the growth and establish- ment of young timothy and clov- er in new secdlngs. This was es- pecially true of alslke clover which is more dependent on moisture supply than‘ is common red clover and alfalfa; but all species in the hay mixture entered the winter as a thin stand and ln s weak condition.

S-llortly after noon today-nearly 24 hours after coming down-the stranded airmen called on the rescue ships to drop snowshoes. axes. skis and a magneto for an auxiliary power unit to keep their radio going. Westover Field officials said it would be virtually impossible to reach the plane overland but that parachutes would furnish ‘he nine some wan-lath until a shelter could be built. .
