U. E. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. Climate and Crop Service, Portland, Or.. Aug. 18. A few small showers occurred Sunday In the Willamette Valley, but otherwise the put week hu been dry. with temperatures averaging slightly above normal. Tho rains treso Insufficient to be of much benefit to lata crops and pastures, which are now beginning to need rain quite badly. Feed Is getting short on the ranges, and the supply of milk is decreasing In the dairy districts. Stock, however, continues doing fairly well, and cattle as a rule are In god flesh. An ave rage second crop of alfalfa has been harvested In southern sections. There Is some bay yet to be cut In the coast counties, but haying in general Is now completed, -with satisfactory yields In all pans of the state. The grain harvest. Is being pushed every where, and In -the Willamette Valley the yields are especially good, and In Eastern Oregon they are much better than expected, ll though not averaging as heavy as last year. Spring grain ripened under favorable weather renditions, and the heads &re well filled with plump berries. The week has been favorable for bops, and si though lice are more numerous than usual, the vines nave not been Injured to any extent, and the prospects are good for yields but slightly below those obtained last year. Com has mad good progress, and It Is now tae sellng and earing. Lato potatoes and gardens heed rain. Prunes are not-dropping so badly as they did during the previous week, and this crop will be an extra good one. Bartlett pears are llso very promising. Apples are quite un tren, and it is expected the yields will be less than the average. COAST DISTRICT. Clatsop, Clatsop County, D. F.

EDWARD A. BEALS. Seetlan Director. FertlatSd. Or. General Crop Heport. WASHINGTON. I). C.. Aug. lS.-The Weather Bureau's -weekly crop bulletin says: Throughout ill northern and eastern por tions of the corn belt the weather has bees too cxl for maturing corn, which is untuu al.y ;ate. The crop has, however, generally Irrproved. nave iuniwr cneeicea tae progress ci uie tprcng waeat sarrect In the Dakota and Minnesota, but this work Is nearly com pleted In tho southern portion of the Soring what region. Threshing has commenced, but rains have prevented rapid progress, and eorna injury to grata in shock Is reported. Za the ventral and Northern Rocky Moun tains and North Podia Coast Districts Spring wheat harvest has progressed unCer-very fa vorable conditions. 'Cotton has made rapid growth throughout the cotton belt. The general outlook forpples Is not prom ising, especially in the Central valleys, where dropping Is extensively reported. More fa vorable reports are received from portions of the Middle Atlantic states. Iowa, and South ern Knw-, PALOUSEl WHEAT Q,UOTATI05S. Otters of 70 and 73 Cents Made and Retailed. COLFAX, Wash., Aug. IS. Wheat Is now worth from 6b" to 73 cents, delivered at ware houses. In the Palouse country, -with a strong market, and many predict the price will reach 76 cents per bushel before the main crop Is harvested and delivered. This Is the high est price paid at the opening of the season In the history of the Palouse country, and farmers are elated over the prospect. While the rtigular quotations are CS cents for club and red wheat, and 71 cents for blue stem, offers of 70 and 73 cents have been made and refused yesterday and today. Farmers ore not amicus to contract wheat, as the experience of those -who contracted for 00 cents about one month ago, and thus lost 10 cents per bushel. Is still fresh In their memory. Another reason for refusing to con tract Is the popular belief that wheat will reach 75 cents within the next few weeks, and many farmers declare they will not sell for less than that figure. Exporters declare the prices now offered are fully S cents above what the export market will Justify, and predict a tumble In prices as soon as the grain begins to come Into the "warehouses In large quantities, but this does not frighten the farmers, who are holding their grain for the top price obtainable. It Is claimed that much of the whtat which has been sold was bought by millers and repre sentatives of the mills declare that more wheat will be ground In the Northwest and ex ported as flour than ever before In tha his tory of the country. Millers say they can pay C cents more than exporters for -wheat, and all are anxious to get the first new wheat and get their mills started again after the Summer close-down. Mr. Nordyke, who was the first man to start a threshtr In this locality this season, said: "I have not threshed a single field of grain since I began -work that has not yjelded better than the owner expected before harvest began." This Is the same report received from all parts of the county, and It Is thought that the crop of Whitman County will be at least SO per rent of that of last year, -while early predictions placed It as low as 00 per cent. India Jute Crop for 1003. About 00 jer cent of the Jute manufac turers and nearly IS per cent of the raw Jute exported from India go to the United States. Returns have been received from 20 districts In Bengal, the area under Jute In tho remaining 21 districts being Insignificant. About two-thirds of the crop is grown in Eastern Bengal, while one-third comes from the northern districts. The weekly weather and crop reports from the Important Jutt growlng districts show marked deficiency of rain In April and to some extent in May. The collectors report deficiency of rain at the time of sowing from all the Jute-growlng dis tricts except Murahldabad and Balasore, where areas under Jute ore comparatively unimpor tant. Not less than 2.300.000 acres may be taken as the normal area under Jute and 7.600,000 bales as the normal outturn. The re ports last year show that 2.200,000 acres were sown and the figures of 'exports and consump tion show the crop to have been not less than 6,600.000 bales. The present season col lectors report the area under Jute as 2,019,000 acres. It is undoubtedly the fact that a smaller area has been sown this year than last, owing to the want of rain at the .time of sowing; but, having regard to the marked tendency to underestimate. It is safe- to as sume that the area under Jute this year is not less than 2,100,000 acres. Notwithstanding the smaller area, the estimates for outturn given by district officers are, on the -whole, mora favorablo than last year. As tha area sown this year "is less than 10 per cent below 'tha normal crop. It Is believed tha outturn will be 3.400.000 bales. World's Apple Crop. BOSTON, Aug. 16. A report on the world's apple crop of 1903 has Just been Issued by tho Boston Chamber of Commerce, It showa Great Britain short of all fruits, notably ap ples. Europe Is generally short of apples, but with a heavy crop of Valencia oranges and Almerla grapes. New England, In tha aggregate, will have a very generous crop, Maine's tlmoat equaling that of last year. New York State reports plenty of apples, the Middle West only fair, the far West very heavy, Virginia and West Virginia a very large crop and Nova Scotia exceptionally heavy. Canada also promises quite & heavy yield. The quality average Is excellent, ex cept In some sections. Hop Sale at Eugene. EUGENE, Or.. Aug. 18. (Special.) Another sale of hops was made yesterday by Campbell &. Walker to F. E. Dunn. Mr. Dunn now holds nearly all of last year's hops that are left In the county, amounting to about 800 bales. Prices have advanced 4 cents per pound during tho past week. Growers are now re ceiving offers of 20 cents per pound on con tracts, but are not accepting any offers. Hopplclcln? Soon Begin. INDEPENDENCE, Or., Aug. IS. SpeclaL) Hopplcking will begin In some of the early yards -within about a. week, tha later yards will commence about the first week In Sep tember. The crop will be fairly large. The warm days that have prevailed lately are keep ing cut the lice to a great extent. Twenty-one Cents for Xevr Hops. CHEIIAL1S, Wash., Aug. IS. Twenty-one cents a jound was offered In, Chehalls yester day for new hops.

The feeling was gen erally based on the conviction that the neces sary liquidation, so far as it affects the mar ket, has been concluded and that the finan cial conditions have been, strengthened as a consequence The movement of Interior exchanges and ad vices from Interior money markets gave warn ing of the early approach of the demand upon New York for funds to move the crops. This demand, however, seemed to have lost Its terrors. Foreign exchange advanced again and the price ot gold -was raised In the London market. London Is taking protective meas ures against demands upon her gold supply and sold stocks freely In New York, but the movement did not impair the newly awakened confidence that with the outward movement of crops New York will be able to command gold owing to tha heavy reduction of Indebt edness abroad during the recent period of liquldatioc In this some connection, tho bulls on stocks made much of the defeat by tho Colombian government of the Panama canal treaty. The financing of the payment of 340.000.000 to the Panama Canal Company and of 410,000,000 to the Colombian government which would have followed the adoption ot tho treaty, has given Wall street much disquiet. It Is supposed to have been a subject of concern to tha Treas ury Department at Washington also. It la assumed that the freedom from obligation to secure exchange for these amounts will facili tate tha Import of gold. The fear that the Treasury Department would haye failed In any attempts to relieve the money market by conserving resources for these payments Is also removed. The larger political and commer claf rate bearings of the canal situation were not considered. The payment Into the local money channels ot tLGtO.OOO. made available by Australian gold at Son Francisco, bad Its favorable Influ ence on the money situation. A decline in corn and -wheat were given favorable Inter pretations, although the Weather Bureau's reports were somewhat disquieting as to the chaoces ot tha corn crop. Many of tho day's movements were attrib uted to market managers controlling Interests In the properties and the causes to justify them were subjects ot surmise. The Rock Island authorities were supposed to be preparing tor a favorable reception for tha new bond issue. Old rumors of a Southern Pacific dividend were revived. High prices for copper and enlarged dividends on Amalgamated Copper were talked of among the speculators. Larger dividends for various coal carriers, both anthracite and bituminous, owlpg to the large current earn ings, were widely discussed. These are but examples of the temper of the day's talk and none of this talk gained any authoritative sentiment. Purchases ot inactive stocks caused wide advances. The selling to take profits was unremitting all day, but was -well absorbed until the final hour. Stocks then seemed to have passed a scale from strong to weak hands and the profit taking made heavy Inroads. The market closed weak without a rally. Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value, 42.000,000. United States bonds were un changed on the last call. Atchison do preferred Baltimore & Ohio do preferred'-...'...., Canadian Pacific '. Chesapeake & Ohio....

Aug.. 18. The wheat pit showed a fair degree of strength at the start, due to the steady cables, the foreign markets being up on reports of wet weather in England and onthe Continent, There was fair commission-house buying early In the day, and after opening jc higher at 825g82Hc, Septem ber advanced to S2?$c The strength was of only short duration, however. On the de cline there was con&lderable selling for short account and many stop loss orders were reached. The break In corn helped along the decline, as did the largo Increase In the world's visible supply- of 2,400,000 bushels, and extreme weakness prevailed the latter part of the session. September closed at. S0;S0?se, a losj of lJc for the day. Com was rather dull and ruled weak throughout the greater port of the session.

Trouble is evidently brewing between the Independent and the trust distilleries, for this morning tho whisky quo tation was dropped from $1.29, tho basis for finished goods, to $1.24. a decline of 5 cents a. gallon. The Independents claim that as the trutt has been maintaining a fictitious quota tion for some days and has been selling goods at tho reduced figures, they called a meeting of the quotation committee of the Board of Trade, as a result of which tho reduced quo-, tatlon was sent out today.
