Strawberry Crop
In Hubbard Area
Breaks Records

Hubbard, June 30.--The strawber-
ry harvest in this vicinity is about
completed and according to state
ments of many growers Hubbard has
shipped out the best lot of high stand
ard berries that has ever been pro-
duced. There may have been seasons
when the crop was larger but never
time it is claimed, when the quail
ity was as good. The hot sun is good
for the loganberries and most of the
growers in this vicinity predict that
they will get a half crop this year
instead of a one third crop as expect
ed earlier in the season.
Crop conditions in Oregon, and par
ticularly in this part of the state, are
in excellent shape at the present time
and it looks as if everything would
produce bumper crops. Reports from
travellers over the northwest and the
entire state, report crops as looking
exceptionally good and the general
belief is that Oregon in particular IS
certain to enjoy an abundant harvest
