BELOW ESTIM ATES>
Wheat Crop Said Not to Be Up TO
Predicted Standard


Portlnd Sept. 5-E. W. Wright,
commercial editor of the Oregonian.
who has just completed a trip OF 1000
miles through the wheat districts of
Oregon. Washington and Idaho, esti-
mates the wheat crop of the three
states for the year TO be As. 100, 900
OF the total crop this year, Oregon
is credited with 1880. 600 bushels:
Washington. 1850, 900 bushels. and
Idaho, + 500 900 bushels. This com.
pares with crop of .1S5. 600 bushels
last year. 1850, 600 bushels in 1902
and rs, 500 600 busehls in 1901, the
latter being the record crop for the
three states.
The out-turn. as now estimated by
Mr. Wright, is fully ) 1000, 900 bushels
under the yield indicated short time
before harvest. the decrease being due
TO dry weather and frost. The poorest
yields ara in the Grande Ronde and
Willamette valley, in Oregon, and the
Big Bend in Washington, the yield in
the latter district being more than D.
900. 900 less than in 1901. The best
yields arc in Gillian and Chatilla
counties. in Oregon, and in the western
part of Whitman county IL Washington
The acreage is larger than ever be-
fore. and with an average yield equal
70 that of 1901 would have produced
crop of 5000 900 bushels The
crop is selling freely at the best prices
ever realized when the yield was so
large. In this estimate Whitman leads
Washington counties with a crop of
9 900. 900 bushels. and Umatilla the
Oregon counties, with 5000 900
bushels.

horse flesh and waste scraps Of meat.
and Scotch whisky tinctured with ere
osote TO give ii smoky flavor are be-
ing imported into the United States,
according TO DR.. Wiley, chief of the
bureau of chemistry.
To stop this wholesale trade in
adulterated food products is the pur-
pose of Dr.. Wiley's establishment at
the Appraiser Stores building in New
York OF committee of five expert
chemists 10 investigate all incoming
shipments. DR.. Wiley is nearly ready
to take immediate action in excluding
alleged Scotch whisky In his opin-
ion there is little real Scotch whisky
IN this country.
The correct formula for making
Scotch whisky he said. is TO trea,
the malt from which the beverage i:
made with smoky peat. This gives ii
that coveted smoky flavor. am re-
liablv informed that most of the Scotch
sent TO this country today is treated
with creosote so as to produce the
same effect. | think such liquor
should be forbidden entrance on the
ground that it is diluted.
The question of German sausages
is now in the hands OF the attorney
general. This product may be exclud.
ed from this country altogether Tn.
der the German law no sausages OF
mixed meats are allowed entrance
whatever. Under our law no products
can be admitted from country whic b
that country excludes.
1T is practically impossible to in.
spect such food products. When mea,
is all cut up and specially prepared
how is one to know what it is made OF
without examining every piece: Fo,
instance. We have found great quaint
ties of that delicacy, pate de foie gras
which consisted of veal and other ten
der meats prepared with spices and
other ingredients TO make it taste like
the real product. Real pate de foie
gras is made from goose liver.
Hereafter We shall require with
all importations of especially prepared
foods of this sort certificate of in.
spection from the health ocffiials a,
the point at which they are made. L,
Is surely fair 10 enforce on foreign
manufacturers the same rules that we
enforce on those in our own country.
DR.. Wiley said he supposed his &C.
ton would cause some excitement. He
added. however. that he had tried fo1
one year being lenient with foreign
importers and found that il did not
work satisfactorily
