Weekly Crop Bulletin.

U. s. Department of Agriculture
has given out the following Climate
and Crop Bulletin of the Weather Btu.
reau, Washington Section, for the
week ending July %:
The past week was the first entire
week without rain that has occurred
this season in the western section o.
the State.
In the section east of the Cascade
Mountains, it was hot. as we'll as dry
but in the section west of them, it was
only moderately warm. Day temper
atures ranged from 80 degrees to 1OC
degrees in the eastern counties, and
from IS degrees to 80 degrees in the
western counties. The nights were
also warm.
The effect in the western section
was to cause a splendid growth of veg
etables, and it was the first good hay
making week of the season. A large
crop of hay has been secured, but con.
siderable OF it damaged by previous
wet weather, lodging and delay in cut.

about ten days. The oat crop is a
promising one. Hops and potatoes
have grown well. Cutworms, or Larvae
resembling them, are creating consid.
cradle havoc in the gardens, and even
among potatoes and beets.
In the eastern sections, fall wheat
harvest continues under perfect
weather conditions. 1t is we'll along,
and even finished in especially early
localities. The general consensus of
opinion is that the yield is somewhat
above the average.
The past week has been unfavorable
for spring wheat and oats. In addi.
ton to extreme dryness, hot winds
have prevailed which have tendency
to shrivel the wheat. Except in few
favored localities, even an average
crop OF spring wheat is now impossible
without copious rain occurring, which
would cause great injury in the fall
wheat fields at the present time.
