and extra fine quality. The recent
rains, say the farmers, have done
much to benefit the crops. In many
places the grain has reached a height
of about three feet, and is now head
ing, while in sections of the county
the heads are of unusual large size.
Along the highway between New
Era ana ca-nhy can be seen a good
demonstration of the growth the
grain has made during the past few
weeks. Potatoes have similarly
been benefited by the recent weather
conditions.
The apple crop is encouraging from
latest reports from the "arious sec
tions of the county. In some nlaces
where the peach trees have been dam
aged by late frosts, there will be a
small crop. This will be larger thaa
that cf last year, as last year's crop
was damaged by the severe winter
of 1919-20.

The cherry season is now near its
height, but there seems little demand
for the fruit and only certain varieties
are in demand at the canneries, and
these that are being shipped to the
canneries are not receiving the price
as paid last year. Growers of the
Bing cherry find that they have larg'e
yields, but some of the canneries are
purchasing this variety.
The strawberry season is nearing
its close, although fine berries are be

Raspberries as well as Loganber
