No precipitation of consequence oc-
Cured throughout the STATE during
the last week and all late crops. with
the exception of corn and hops, are
in need of a good soaking rain. Light
frost occurred Thursday morning on
some of the bottom lands in Southern
Oregon, but no damage resulted there
from.
Threshing is practically completed d
in western Oregon, while east of the
Cascade mountains this work contin-
ues under favorable circumstances.
The yield of both wheat and barley
continues good in the Columbia and
the Grand Ronde valleys, but in the
Willamette valley and southern Ore
gon, the grain yields were generally
below the average.
Hops made satisfactory advance
ment and the crop is about ready for
harvesting; picking will become gen
eral by the first Of next week. The
vines are free of vermin and 1t is ex-
pected the quality will be good. Corn
is doing nicely and a large crop is
promised. Field onions are being
pulled. Late potatoes and gardens
are doing poorly owing to lack of
rain
Pears and prunes are ripe and being
gathered. Pears are abundant, but
prunes will average about half Of a
full crop. Apples are small in size
and in we'll kept orchards an average
crop will be harvested.
Stock on the ranges continue in
fairly good condition; in the dairy dis
tricts cattle are losing flesh and there
is marked falling off in the milk
supply.
