Oregon Apple Crop Estimated This Year
To Be 1871 Carloads Less Than In 1921

Reduction Of quantity of the pros.
pectlve 1922 commercial apple crop
throughout the state, due to an un-
usual amount of worm damage, to-
gether with small sizes and more or
less brown spot" is the opinion of
F. L. Kent, agricultural statistician,
United States department of agricul-
ture, who recently visited the apple
raising districts of the state.
In the Willamette and Umpqua
districts. there was a rather light
bloom and a consequent light setting
of fruit with most varieties" states
Mr.. Kent. "This was followed by an
extremely dry season. In the Rogue
River district this was an off year,
following heavy production of last
year. Hood River estimates vary
from rs per cent to 100 per cent of
last year. We have adopted 80 per
cent. Reduction of the Wasco coun-
ty crop is mainly attributed to the
Try hot season. Umatilla county had
severe spring freeze which is held
mainly responsible for the small
'rop Of that section. Malheur coun-
y is expected to haye rather more
commercial apples than last year
Jnion county will probably produce
smaller crop than last year.

Stay in school as long as you can.
Get all you can out of school while
you are there. Decide on what you
ire to do and work at that as If you
