WheatYield
Is Estimated
By Grain Men
Better Than One Million
Bushels Expected to Be
Harvested in Grande
Ronde Valley.
Despite tlie hot weather of three
weeks ugo which cut the yield to
some extent the grain crop In l n-
Ilon county will still exceed l.ouu,
hiu bushels, from the Utesi es

I with conditions. The totui yield
Is expected lo net. in round num

The yield us a whole Is proving
' very good although not quite up
to curlier expectations. The crop
litis dropped Hbout five bushels to

but is still good,, from repot tb
from the hurvesl fields.
The crop lit the valley Is uver-
uglng about 21 bushels to the acre
for full grain und about 22 bush
els to the acre for the spring
planting.
Harvesting liider Wuy
The harvesting in most parts of
the valley is under way with the
mujority of the work being done
by combines. The labor supply
seems about on an even plane with
the demund. Karmcrs having 1(1
tie trouble hiring all the men
needed.
Several Individual crops have
been noted which are expected to
yield above uverage. At the pre
sent time the fields of Mrs. John
Terry on the Knapp place neur
Allcel give indication of being the
biggest producers. These plots
ure expected to yield about 60
bushels to the acre of fall wheat.
The Hi fold crops ure all yielding
