THE HOP INDUSTRY
NEW YORK BUYER SAYS PACIFIC
COAST is TO BE THE HOP
CENTER.
Growers in New York Going Out
of Business-P1cking of This
Years crop on the Coast
Will End Next Week.
Other News.

Portland Evening Telegram.
Nearly all the Oregon heps are
picked and a good many samples
in the bales have been received in
Portland. The rain Friday night
will prove rather beneficial than
harmful, as it will wash the burs
clear of dust before they go into the
driers. No amount of rain could
do very much damage, for picking
will be through~by next week. Al
ready large numbers ofthe pickers
| have returned home.
F. A. Wattenberg. a New York
buyer, who is in the city, estimate
that out of $1,000 bales, $1,000
are in the hands of the growers,
which would leave $4,000 bales in
the hands of contracting parties.
The samples received show good
quality. No prices, however, have
been established. German hops
are selling at 80 cents in New York
with the duty paid, which low fig
ure is likely to weight down the pri-
ces and keep them from soaring
higher than 90 to %. cents, the
present contracting prices. The
German crop, as stated before, is
heavy, but the New York and Eng
lish crops are light and poor in
quality. Most of the California
crop is picked, and the Washington
crop is we'll in hand. Eastern buy
ers are upon the ground, but do not
seem very active in making offers.
Until the samples in the bales are
received, it is not likely much will
be done in the buying line.
Mr.. Wattenberg makes an i'm
portant statement as serving to show
that the Pacific Coast can raise
hops much cheaper than any of the
Eastern states. Until recent years
New York has been the hop raising
center of America. Low prices,
poor quality caused by the soil be-
ing worn thread bare and the in.
creased cost of production have
caused some of the larger growers
to plough under fields and turn to
other kinds Of farming.
The one item of poles alone cost
the New York grower from 10 to IL
cents per pole, or about $75 an acre.
In Oregon and Washington the
poles cost the grower practically
nothing. While the New York
soil is worn out, the soil in the
Coast states is still strong and fresh,
although successive crops are be-
ginning to tell upon it's productive
powers, and unless growers fertilize
freely from this time on they will
pick a poor quality of hops hereaf-
ter.
It is likely many of the other
large New York growers will go out
of the business this year, and the
acreage in Washington and Oregon
will be increased that much more.
That the industry is assuming large
proportions in Oregon is shown by
the fact that Horst Bros. have 325
acres; Krebbe Bros, Zoo acres;
Rose, 1e5 acres; Lilienthal Bros,
115 acres; Hirshberg, 11o acres.
Those are the largest growers.
