WARM WEATHER NOT FELT Estimated Crop WW Be Between 2,000,000 and 1,500,000 Bush els Hot Winds Lessen rield in Washington. ELGIN. Or., July If. (Special.) Within a very few days Union County will be In the midst of Its greatest harvest. A careful examination of fields In all sections of the county, gives Indications that the yield will approximate 1. BOO. 000 to J. 000, 000 bush els from an acreage slightly less than that commonly sowed In small grains. That this year's crop of wheat In Union County promlas a yield of vir tually 60 per cent more than that of a year ago is due to two conditions: first, the greater acreage, and, second, th excellent growing weather and amount of rainfall through the season. A survey of the wheat fields in the ter ritory Immediately surrounding Elgin shows a splendid stand of grain, and It Is predicted by flourmlll men of the valley that there will be shipped from this point approximately 450.000 bush els. While there Is an Increase of virtually 20 per cent In the total acre age, the percentage of Fall sowing Is fully 10 per cent more than usual. While there are streches that will harvest CO bushels an acre In the vlcin- ty of Elgin, It Is a common sight to see fields that will range between 45 and 60 bushels. Sixty-bushel yields In bygone years have only been harvested In spots, but th percentage of such reduction Is much greater this year than ever before. Therefore taking the harvest field for Held, the average this year will be the greatest ever known In Union County. Warm weather Is needed to ripen the wheat safely and barring hot winds or a wet harvest, the crop Is practi cally made at thla time. Barley will range about (0 bushels to the acre as an average, an unusu ally good showing, even were the rain fall more plentiful than It has been this season. There are fields In the county that will average better than 60 bushels but this Is too high an aver age for the entire district. The showing In oats Is smaller than usual. This Is due entirely to the de creased acreage, because the crop to the acre la a record breaker. Alfalfa la making the aame heavy showing In this section as has been noted In all portions of Oregon.
