Abstract
- The article discusses the drought-affected agricultural areas in the U.S. that the August-September rains failed to reach in November 1934. Another drought year in 1935 is feared to haunt Western plains near the nation's food basket, in the Southwestern hard winter wheat belt and the ranches of the Rocky Mountain states. The Department of Agriculture reports shrinking livestock due to feed shortage and dry ranges. Wheat growing areas in north central and western Kansas, eastern Colorado and southwestern Nebraska were not softened enough for plowing.
