Meek who keeps ft. close eye on crop conditions In the vicinity of Wallowa and reports them for our readers writes tills week of harvest lug and marketing condition!) in that particular part of Eustern Oregon. What he has to say Is as follows, Harvesting of the winter wheot crops of the section about Wallowa has been In full blast during the past week. All binding which was not done earlier has been finl'acd during the past few days. A number of small stationary threshing outfits have been started during tne post few days and a number of combines will start j on some of the early maturing fields in the hills the first of the coming week. j Ed Bell who recently finished bind ing his wheat crop at the C. A. Hunt- ! er ranch In the hills east of here started threshing Wednesday of this 1 week, however, numerous small break-downs have been experienced and no large amount of threshing 1 has been done yet. Indications point j to fair yields of grain here. Oiles i PI ass threshed a small field of wheat i at his form In the hills the latter part of the week and reports a yield ! of around 25 bushels per acre. He I also threshed a 20 acre field for Meek , Bros, the latter part of the week ! which yielded better than 30 bushels I per acre. Judging from scattering re- j ports of yields from what little threshing has been done It looks like the yields would be better in this community than for the post couple of years. But little of the fad wheat shows signs of being badly burned, and while there is said to be some frost damage ln nearly all fields It is not believed that it will be severe enough to cause any great difference in the yields. Threshing Is starting about tsn days earlier here this season than that of last year. Some of the new wheat will be moving to the ware houses shortly. Fanners do not feel much encouraged with price pros pect. The price of No. 1 wheat is said to be around 65 cent per bushel here at this time and some report are current thot offers have been made to contract at 70c per bushel. A number of the hill farmers who have gone into the hog raising busi ness quite extensively during the past year or two say that unless the price j shows some signs of becoming con- i siderably better during the next few ; weeks that they will keep thegrcater j part of their wheat on the farms for ! feed purposes. A heavy growth of ; straw in the winter wheat fields In i the dry farming areas here has given ; dry land farmers an excellent chance of getting plenty of hay for winter needs without having to cut any I great amount or their grain. Mont farmers in the hills say they have ( more hay than for a number of years. MARKED DOWN LUGGAGE that will "MARK YOU UP" when traveling.
