SOME GOOD PRODUCTS
Corn, Barley, Oats, Rye. Hay
and Potatoes In 1903.
Washington Raised Those CroDs tn
the Value OF S10,7OO,4s2 in
the Year just Closed,

The combined value of the 1903 pro
uuCtloh OF corn, barley, oats, rye, hay
ana potatoes in Washington is esti
mated Dy the agricultural department
dL dL Tlo,lO9,4S2. This il Just about
Sz'oOO'UoO more than the valuation of
THESE crops IN 1902, and it is 81 200, 900
more than the value of the same crops
10 the Older state of Oregon.
The acreage devoted to the crops men
tion'd was smaller, in nearly every case
than IN 1902, but the farmers can re.
Iolce that they received much higher
prices f"r their products. For instance
the estimated average valae of the 1909
crop OF hay in Washington ia placed at
SIZ ol per ton, as against SO 93 in the
year before; barley at 80 cents az
against 46; rye at II cents as against
81. @''-''
The high price of hay was not due to
a snort crop. On the contcarv. Wash
lngton produced 1854 ,759 tons of hay
last year, as against 739 ,359 tons in
1902, and the gross value was estimated
at ~, OBS, 372, "a against Sc. 500 .47G.
The acreage was less last wear than the
year before, but the yield was much
greater.
The production of barley is increasing
IN nearly every state where barley is
raised at all. The Washington crOp
last year is officially given as 6.15S.-
2o| bushels, or nearly one third as large
as the production of wheat, the staple
crop. The 1902 barley crop was 6.I21.-
2IS bushels. Last years crop was
valued at an average of 50 cents a
hushei, making the crop worth to the
farmers S3,O79, 12S, as against $2,815.-
78S in 1902.
The production of oats was larger
than that of any other cereal except
wheat. The state produced last season
obs, lS5 bushels, as against Ills
OF in 1902, but lower prices prevailed
during the last harvest, and the total
value Is placed at only $2,2S7,3IO, or
more than million dollars less than
the 1902 crop.
Washington is not in the proper zone
Tor the most successful production of
corn, but the states crop in 1903 was
OF nigh quality, brought good price,
ana amounted 60 229,Ol3 bushels, val
ued at Sl25, 957. The rye crop was
90, ,5O1 bushels, valued at S43,561
This was one Of the minor crops. rye
covering only 1881 acres OF land in
the state last year.
Potatoes yielded $1,535 ,254 to the
Washington farmers, at an average
price OF 36 cents per bushel for q total
crop OF 1864, 595 bushels. The Weld
per acre--an average OF 145 bushels-is
stated to have been larger than any
other state on the Pacific slope, and
among the largest in the union.

A grove set thirty feet apart will have
