FACTS THAT PROVE THAT
1921 BEATS 1920.

From the Spokesman-Review: The
Spokane country wheat crop in 1921
will run S7,027 200 bushels, as against
73,022,100 bushels in 1920. The wheat
production of the Spokane country
represents over one-ninth of the total
for the United States this year, name
ly 100000 bushels.
While the 1921 production for the
country fell off from 7S7,00O,000 bush
els in 1920, the northwest tonnage IN
creased about 100000 bushels.
Washington leads the nation in APP
pie production in 1921 with 25,455 900
boxes.
Apples from Washington orchards
represent about ne-third of the ma
tional production of 19,509,00O bar
rels.
Washington, Idaho, Oregon and
Montana will produce about $4,000
years production was $4,000 cars.
While the national crop has de
creased so per cent and the crop in
competing states is 70 per cent lower
than in 1920, the northwestern pro-
duction shows an increase of 80 per
cent, Washington showing Al per cent
gain.
Cost of producing apples and wheat
in the northwest have been greatly
reduced in 1921 and apple prices
promise to be better than 1920, while
net returns from wheat are also ex-
pected to surpass last years.
Spokane bank deposits, $44,7S0,177
on September 6, and rapidly increas-
ing, represent increased purchasing
power.

road and trail construction by the
Forest Service within the national
forests of these same states; making
a grand total of $s67 800.
The amounts are considerably
smaller than for the previous fiscal
year, when the total was S1,6520SS
This is due largely to the concession
made by Congress to stockmen,
whereby they are allowed until De-
cember l to pay their grazing fees
due last spring. This action was
made necessary by the widespread de-
preston in the livestock business. A
small portion of the reduction is due
also to falling off in timber sale re-
ceipts of the forests due to bushes
conditions.
Only states within which national
forests exist share in the receipts. BY
Act of Congress, % per cent of the
funds derived from timber sales,
grazing fees, special uses, etc, are
returned to the States for roads and
schools. The amount thus receive
Is re-distributed to counties in lieu of
taxes, based on the area of National
Forest land within their boundaries.
In addition, 10 per cent of the forest
receipts are spent within the counties
by the Forest Service on road and
trail construction and maintenance.
