I Following is a summary of the, crop conditions in Oregon for the j w eek ending Jne 20, 1910, as re- ported to the local office of the , weather bureau by. special corres-i pondents throughbut the state: j Unusually warm weather prevailed tho first lour days of the week which was followed by a sudden change to cooler with general rains Fall wheat Is now heading and con siderable barley has already headed Fall wheat was damaged somewhat by the hot weather, but correspond ents diTfer greatly a9 to the extent; some say that on heavy land suffer ed Hie most, while others think it was hurt worst on light land. The cool, v et weather was very beneficial and undoubtedly saved the fall wheat crop from serious injury. Corn made snlendld growth during tlio warm days and it was also greatly bene fitted by the rains. Cut worms are reported as more numerous than us ual in Uie corn fields In a few lo calities. A large proportion of tho first crop of alfalfa has been cut, and sonio was damaged by the recent rains while being cured. The second crop of alfalfa is doing nicely and promises to be better than the first crop. Meadow grab.ses have, on the whole, made satisfactory progress, except in some few places where growth has been very slow on ac count of the previous dry weather. Pasturage 'continues good and 3tock Is in fine condition. Tho rains have been of great benefit to spring wheat, potatoes, gardens and In fact to all late sown crops. Quite a large amount of clever has been cut for hay and most of It was secured in good condition. Tree fruit did well during tho week, especially apples and prunes. The strawberry harvest in the low val leys is about completed, but in the higher valleys it Is in various stages of progress. This crop did not turn out so well as expected, either in quantity or quality. j E. A. REALS, i District Forecaster. I Implements!

High prices and drastic restrictions have done little, If anything to curb drinking in Englnnd. Sonio authorities say there has been an increase. There has been much controversy over the question. Advocates of rigid regu lation or total prohibition main tained the new rules has made the country more sober. Their opponents denied it. The United Kingdom Alliance, a neutral organization devoied to the compilation of all sorts of social sta tistics which tho country supposedly' ought lo know, has finally submitted definite fgures. Ilefore the war the "pubs", saloons, were open, nineteen .mil a hull' hours daily, from 5 a. m. until 12:30 a. m. Today they are open five hours and a halt daily. No intoxicants may bee sold before noon: mine between 2:no and 0:"0 p. in.: none after 9:30 p. m. Treat ing aljo has been strictly prohibited. Thi so regulations are enforced ener getically. The United Kingdom M- Ibnce'n leeords show that drinking wiij decreased In llil,!. by S per cent, compared with 1911. and Im per cent compared with the last full peace year. 1913.

The Increased percentage of reduc tion Is attributed to the Increased number of men sent abroad. Epeuditiires for drink have in creased, owing to higher prices.
