NO DAMAGE
TO The CROPS

WALLA WALLA, Aug. 2S.--As far
as can be learned the damage to crops
as the result of the recent storm was
very light, as only the grain which is
still standing was harmed, and that
very little. In walla walla county 1t
is claimed that practically all of the
wheat is harvested, but large amount
of 1t is still in the fields, sacked. This
Is not harmed in the least, and the only
effect it will have hpon it is to incite
the owners to get it into the ware
houses sooner than they would have
done under ordinary circumstances.
The rain came at Just the right time
for the farmers in this section of the
country and most OF them had their
grain out of harms way. In the Pa
louise country the damage was slight.
Pendleton reports some damaged grain
and fruit.

FrOStS the Yield Beats
All Records

"Our company will ship SO per cent
more cars out of the Lewiston and
Snake river valleys this season than
ever before in spite of the fact that
the impression has become general In
the outside country that the fruit crop
of this section is almost a total fair
ure," said George E. Crum, of the firm
of White Bros. & Crum.
THE crop is the largest the country
has ever produced and while some OF
iston valley, the apples, plums and
prunes will make full crop with q
partial crop of peaches.
"In the Snake river valley there rs
a bumper yield of all varieties without
an exception. In any fruit district
there is usually a shortage or lighf
crop of some particular varieties. but
this is not true this year.
"'rhe reports last spring that there
would be no fruit in the Lewiston and
Snake river valleys is entirely errone-
Gus and the country has suffered an
injustice as the result. We have ship
ped more than 100 carloads up till this
time and will ship another hundred
carloads before the season is closed.

is good and in the Palouse country and
vicinity of Spokane the growers will
