OREGON CROP
OF WHEAT IS
ENCOURAGING
(Continued from Pnpe I)
am) barrelled fruit from last, sea
sons crop, particularly of all ber
ries, has caused a light demand for
the 1!L.'7 crop. This Is particularly
true of raspberries, which have
been contracted this year at about
llfi iter cent of the price to grower
for the l'.r.'i; crop. Considerable
losr resulted to the strawberry crop
'l'rom rapid delayed ripening which
cause dheavy congestion of the
barreling plants and told storage
facilities. Loganberries are s-dling
at about the same price as last
year, but the crop will probably be
leys than half that of last season.
The soli is lu fine condition as to
moisture and tin1 size of the logan
and raspberry harvest, which is
now in full living, prnmisi'S to
hold up well throughout tlie sen
son. Gcncrttl heidhltt
I "Apple and pear prospects j
throughout Ihe Culled States shows'
declines of ten and seven per cent
respectively. j
Helative to tho wheat crop, the.
report suys: j
"Numerous growers report that i
the per acre yield promises to be
nearly double the average of tho
last, few) years. It is unite certain
'that the, .present wheat crop will
he (he best in several years, and i
with the attractive prices now pre- j
vailing tlie wheat tanners appear
to he in lf.no tor a touch of pros
