The hop-picking season is over in the Dallas district and the farmers are busily engaged in baling their crops.

Buyers are now taking samples, but are making no offers. The farmers do not seem to be in any hurry to sell, and it is doubtful if many 12-cent hops could be secured in Polk county at this time.
