Doing Good Work.

Reports from all of the yards in this
county and over in Polk are to the eff.
feet that the pickers are doing splen.
did work this year in both the amount
picked and the cleanliness of the har.
vest and everyone seems cheerful and
satisfied with their surroundings.
While years heretofore have seen one
million of dollars poured into the pock.
cts of those working at the hop yards
in this vicinity, there is a very strong
indication that more than million will
be required to be expended before the
1913 crop is harvested. Every yard in
Polk county is overloaded with pickers
but nevertheless the growers are doing
their best to keep everyone and are
working diligently both day and night
to allow every picker full days work.
The same conditions exist in this county
and many family will leave the yards
within the next three weeks with a neat
bank roll tucked away in the form of
hop checks.

RAIN IS GOOD FOR
HOPS SAYS DURBIN
Well known Dealer Thinks Present
Fall viii Simply Ripen Them in
Good Shape.

"Just let this rain keep up for two
or three days and you will see some
of the prettiest hops ever grown in the
world" said F. w. Durbun, the well
known local hop man this afternoon
when asked if the present rains would
have a tendency to injure the crop.
According to Mr., Durbin who is an
extensive grower and buyer and who
has been in the hop business in this
county for years, the rain will color the
hops to perfection. At present the crop
is of light greenish color and hardly
of the proper shade to render them Al,
With few days rain though, declares
Mr.. Durbin, the hops will take on that
beautiful gOlden-yellow color which will
increase their value very materially.
This being the case, everything is
coming the hop man s way. He will
not only have a prettier hop, but the
price of that Oregon product will be
noticeably affected by Old Jupe.

Pickers Bold.

Notwithstanding the fine, exceeding
ly damp rain that has been falling to-
day, reports from several yards are to
the effect that pickers don't care for
the mist and are out in the fields claw.
ing off the elusive hop in fine style.
Although camp life is rendered some
what unfavorable by the wet, different
people who are in from the fields this
morning say that the pickers are max
ing the best of the situation and en-
poying real outing while not in the
yards at work.
About the only serious drawback to
the wet weather so far as can be seen
at present, is that if it keeps up for ten
or twelve days and then turns off ex.
ceptionally warm, the crop might be at
tackled by mold and lice. This is not
thought to be probable though, as
weather indications are that the rainy
spell will not last more than day or
so and the weather will continue to be
cool.
