Acreage Reduced, and Bumper Crop
Outlook Gloomy.
BY HYMAN H. COHEN.
Portland, Oregon, June 7. Weather
too cold.
These three words tell the exact
condition of the 1916 grain crops in
the state of Oregon, Idaho and Wash
ington. ! "
From practically every section of
the Pacific Northwest special crop
correspondents announce that weather
conditions during the month of May
have continued against the cereal
crops.
This perhaps is not the most seri
ous drawback to the three states pro
ducing even an averuge crop of wheat
this season. In the first place the
acreage is so greatly reduced below
the normal of recent seasons that even
were weather conditions ideal, the
total crop could scarcely be up to the
average.
The protracted rainy period during
the early fall, the entire winter and
spring months, gave little opportun
ity for farmers to get in their normal
acreage of grain. In some- sections
less than half the normal acreage is
shown. , ,
As a general rule the light land sec
tions are showing the best crop condi
tion this season. The Columbia River
section of Oregon is especially for
tunate, considering the standing of
the crops elsewhere, in the light
land sections of Umatilla county, Ore
gon, and iWalla Walla county, Wash
ington, the prospects are far better
than in the so-called heavy land sec
tions. Weeds are giving more than the
usual amount of trouble in the wheat
fields of the three states, the damage
being especially noticeable in the
heavy land sections. - As a rule th
showing of spring wheat is much bet
ter than in the winter planting, and
both oats and barley are showing a
better condition than wheat, i
Reports from some of the leading
districts show: -
Oregon Athena Winter wheat
condition 80 per cent, spring wheat
80 per cent. Weather has been en
tirely too cold. Wheat very back
ward and weedy.
1 Freewater Winter wheat condition
75 per cent, spring wheat 80 per cent,
barley 85 per cent, hay 87 per cent,
i.oats 85 per cent. Weather unfavor
able. Conditions will improve witn
30 days good weather.
The Dalles Winter wheat condition
50 per cent, spring wheat 60 per cent,
hay 50 per cent, oats 50 per cent.
Crops poor due to cold weather.
Pendleton Winter wheat condition
a little below average with sprin;;
wheat slightly better than winter.
Earley and hay conditions good. Light
lands have good prospect. Need
warmer weather.
Independence Winter .-wheat con
dition 95 per cent, spring wheat, oats,
hay and barley 100 per cent. General
conditions fairly good. -
Washington Walla Walla Winter
wheat poor, 65 to 80 per cent, spring
wheat 70 to 80 per cent, barley, hay
same. Winter wheat yellow, full of
weeds. . Spring wheat good but late.
The Factory
Behind the Food
More than forty different kinds of corn flakes were prepared experi
mentally before New Post Toasties were finally developed to perfection. As
a distinguishing feature, note the tiny bubbles on ear-h flake raised by the
quick, intense heat of a new, patented process of manufacture.
New Post Toasties are the first corn flakes with' a self-developed flavour
the full, true flavour of choice white, Indian Corn unlike common "corn
flakes" that depend largely on cream and sugar for their palatability.
..Try a handful dry this simple test will demonstrate the delicious new
flavour. But the flakes are usually served with cream or rich milk.
New Post Toasties do not "chaff" or crumble in the package, and thev
"stand up" when cream or milk is added. They're untouched by human handa
and put up in moisture-proof packages to preserve their oven freshness until
served. ,

, YOUR KIDNEYS.
La Grande Residents Must Learn The
Importance of Keeping Them Well. .
Perfect health means that every or
gan of the body is performing its
functions properly.
Perfect health cannot be enjoyed if
the kidneys are weak and disordered.
Thousands testify that Doan't Kid
ney Pills have a reviving acti n on
weak kidneys.
What this remedy has done in so
many cases of this kind is the best
proof of its merit.
Read the following. It's testimony
gratefully given by a resident of this
locality:
Thomas Brasher, real estate dealer.
Union, Ore., says: "I suffered from
weakness of the kidneys and didn't
rt-st well on that account After us
ing Doan't Kidney Pills a short time,
the kidney action was regulated."
