WHEAT PRODUCTIONS
BELOW 1889

All wheat production for the state
-42,9S2,000 bushes, is per cent be-
low average and Q per cent below last
years production of 43,822,000 bush
els. It is the smallest wheat crop pro-
duced since 1884. Winter wheat yields
were above the 10-year average, with
rs bushels per acre reported. But
summer drought conditions curtailed
the yields of spring wheat to an aver
age of Is bushels per acre, which is
3 bushels below the 1889. figure.
There was considerably more bulk
handling of wheat this year, as many
warehousemen built new elevators in
connection with their regular ware
houses. Smut damage was heavier in
| all parts Of the state than for several
years, but appeared to run heaviest
in the Snake River area Recent tests
inspections indicated 10.4 per cent of
the wheat grading s1nutty compared
with 7.6 in 1889. Test weights have
been running lighter than usual, and
the protein content is little lower
than average. Fall weather conditions
| have been idea for wheat farming.
Wedding was practically completed by
September LIST, so that during the past
four weeks adequate rainfall has per-
mitted farmers to seed wheat with the
assurance of speedy seed termination.
Early indications point to more than
usual winter wheat acreage being seed
ed in the Big Bend country.
