A number of pastures particu larly in the eastern section of the county were covered by salt water during the recent storm. Many of the pastures have died and will not produce next year. The salt may still be in the soil, so it would be a good idea to take a soil test and find out the salt content. A soil test is the only way to find out how much salt is in the soil. If this information is desired be sure to label the soil container that you want the salt content for that sam ple. Jt will probably be next spring before the land will be free of the salt so the pastures will grow. A soil test will give a better idea of when the land will be free of salt.
