And I call upon the patriotic men and women of Ore gon, and their sons and daughters, to make of this day an occasion memor able in the history of our state, mark ing, as it does, a great forward step in the efficient utilization of our man hood upon the side of democracy and ' justice in the .World War, to the end that world peace may the sooner be 'restored and permanently assured. !

Portland, Ore., May 28. (Special) Notwithstanding disappointing weather conditions which made seed ing operations in the Pacific North west of a hazardous nature this sea son, there are 5,762,000 acre3 planted to cereals in the Pacific Northwest states compared with 5,209,000 acres for the season of 1916. Total wheat acreage in Oregon, Idaho and Washington shows an in crease of 475,000 acres despite the showing of a loss of 254,000 acres in the winter planting. The loss was moren than made up in the spring vheat sowing. On the basis of the present show ing of the wheat crop condition the three states this season will harvest tpproximately ' 57,500,000 bushels compared with the actual cutting of 60,000,000 bushels a year ago. In the face of the showing of an increased area planted to wheat as compared with the 1916 season, this showing rray seem rather queer to many but an examination of the condition of the crop will quickly correct this im pression. The great shortage in the winter wheat planting is the most serious blow to the industry. Oregon is first of all a winter wheat state. While it grows considerable spring wheat during certain seasons, far its best showing of production is always Market Place COLUMNS FOR THEY 106 Fir street. ' See Jack Childs, 1312 Jefferson street.

K..UAKn..aw nil' Washington and Idaho, wherever cli matic conditions will allow such planting. Owing to the extreme cold in some sections of Washington, it is too dangerous to plant winter wheat and for that reason the Evergreen state as a rule plants about as much spring cereal as it does the winter variety. Fall wheat is showing considerable improvement in practicnlly all sec tions of the Pacific Northwest state. With warmer weather in the Inland Empire the plants are generally showing good growth and color. Rnri wheat is making the usual seasonable headway in most sections .nd whiln tha ntir sqnn is Hlnv?

Corn planting is also showing an increase, the estimate for the three states being 149,000 aores compared with 137,000 acres a year ago. Warm weather is needed by all the crops but more especially for corn to make a good showing. The only one of the cereals to show decreased planting this season is rye and this is a nominal crop in the Pa cific Northwest. Surprising increase has been shown' in the planting of beans in Oregon, Idaho and Washington this season on account of the extreme prices in ef- j feet last season as well as the out ; look for values the coming season. I Total area planted to .beans in the three states is figured at 40,000 acres compared with 10,000 a year ago. There wa3 a very liberal increase in the planting of sugar beets in Oregon, Idaho and Washington. De tailed figures for the acreage of the three states are now available for the first time; no efforts being made in previous years to secure this data. The condition of the sugar beet planting is reported at 90 per cent of a full crop which means a rather favorable outlook for the present sea son. Some damage is reported in Southern Oregon but the crop in gen eral there starts under most favor- able conditions. Oregon Physicians Volunteer.
