WHEAT CROP
NOT TOO HIGH

OLYMPIA. Aug. Contrary 70
beliefs entertained in many quarters.
the state department OF agriculture
at Olympia. declares that grain pro-
duction is not above the average in
any sense. but is strictly normal.
Beriah Brown OF tho department
gives out figures TO prove his point.
Tho December estimate OF the crop
was S62.oO0.0o0 bushels. The June
estimate was cut 10 SIT 900. 600 BUSH
els. while tho prossnt estimate is only
sol 100000 bushels.
The average crop for the past five
years has been around SIS. 5000, 900
bushels, so that the present crop is
below tho average. The 1928 crop is
not quite 81 above that OF n decade
ago and considering a 1905 increase
in population. the crop would be be-
low that Of 10 years ago.
