La Grande, Oregon WHEAT SHOWS HEAT DAMAGE IN OREGON (Continued from rage One.) June. A letter from 1. K. Steph ens, of the Sherman County Kx periment Station, under date of July 8th reads In part as followH: "In Sherninn county we had a fine prospect for a biK crop about the middle of June. After the hot spell from the 18th to the 27th our erop.s did no) look no wood, and ihe continued dry weather has muterl ally reduced our prospective yield. Much of the wheat on the shallow er soils wilt make nothing und the damage In some localities on deep er soils has been quite inalerinl. It is difficult to exactly determine the extent of damage, but I think Jf Is greater than most farmers re alize. Fields that look Rood from a distance, when examined closely. .show that the grain will be Imdly shrunken and the yield probubly tow. There's lots of fairly good yheat In the County, however, and we Hhall have lots more . wheat than we did last year. I think our nyerago yield will be about two bjishels higher than our ,iVer'ige spring wheat .yield, or in the neigh borhood of I ti or 17 bushels per acre. In I he southern end of the County wheat is ulill uite green and the crop may be farther dam aged in that vicinity but from Mo ra to the Jtiver most of the wheal. jtpxeept Martfiiis, Is about ripe, liar- vest will begin In Ibis Counly next week and h'is already skirted In northern Ullllam ' and Morrow Counties.
