DROUTH CUTS CROP
Government Estimate for
Northwest May Be Revised.
3RAIN NEEDS RAIN BADLY
tins light. while the demand holds up. Bat
ter also Is actlre.
Poultry of all kinds is moving freely, the
best hens selling at 163217 cents and Springs
at 2021 cents. The demand for country
dressed meats exceeds the supply.
Federal Forecast for Three States
on July 1 Was for Wlieat Pro
duction Xearly Equal to
That of Last Year.
The 1017 wheat crop of the Pacific Korth
west. according to the estimates just made
to the Government, will bo only l.5o.uu
bushels less than the crop of 1916. The
"Winter wheat crop figures 12,001.000 bush
el less than last year, but the Spring crop
is estimated at 10,643,000 bushels more than
' si year ago.
The figures represent conditions on. July
1. and in the opinion of grain men, here
may have to be materially revised In the
next monthly report. The crop is not com
ing along as well as -was hoped and unless
there Is needed rain In the dry sections very
soon, the yield will be a disappointment.
Advices from Spokane yesterday were that
the late hot spell had done 25 per cent
damage In somo of the Important districts,
but rain within a week or bo may make up
for this loss. Spring grain in Eastern Ore
gon Is also suffering. The "Willamette Val
ley, according to a reliable authority, can
not, even with the most favorable conditions,
do better than CO per cent of last year's
cereal production.
The Government figures for the Xorth
west. according to the July 1 estimate, fol
low: Winter wheat 101T. 1U.

ADVANCE IN WOOL PRICES CHECKED
Eastern Bayers Believe Government May
Regulate Value.
Eastern wool buyers "are holding back,
fearing Government action on prices, accord
ing to advices at hand from Boston, which
say:
"Xothlng but legitimate mill "buying Is
represented in the wool operations of the
past week and the movement Is compara
tively small for the period. The hesitation
caused by the fear of Government action in
regard to prices, as reported & week ago,
continues to affect the local market. It
seems to have exercised some Influence even
upon values and the upward trend appears
to he stopped, though the market is firm at
the levels of a week ago. Even the buying
of manufacturers is not urgent, most mills
being supplied so well that they will not
need to worry about further stocks at least
until the new domestic clip Is offered in
larger quantities. The buying in the "West
Is still being done at top prices.
Demand has fallen away to such an extent
that. It Is reported, the offering of large
blocks of wool from various quarters has
aroused little response from buyers. Kellers
are not ready to offer special inducements
In the way of price and "buyers cannot be
persuaded to take large lots except at con
cessions. The result is that the movement
for the week probably is not greatly In ex
cess of Jt. 000,000 pounds of wool In the Bos
ton market.

There Is a. lack of demand for wheat and

SPRING CHAIN IS UFA 1)1 NO SHORT,
Winter Wheat in Oregon Generally In Good
Condition.
Following Is a summary of the crop ennfl!
tlons in Oregon for the week ending July i
7. 1017. as reported to the local office of
the weather bureau by special correspond- ,
ents throughout the state:
Under cloudless skies the continued hot.
lry weather has been favorable for haying,
which is now general with good crops of
clover and alfalfa being housed.
Shallow-rooted crops and those on licht
oils are suffering materially for moisture,
and unless it rains soon the late planted
will not come to full growth before ma
turity. Barley, oats and Soring wheat were In
fair to good condition, but heading very
short : Winter wheat generally good, and
the harvest of rye has begun on valley land
in T'matiila county.
Corn, potatoes, hops, sugar beets and
beans, where irrigated, made rapid advance
ment, warm nights being particularly fav
orable to the growth of corn.
Pastures and ranges, as a rule, are drying
up and are generally In need of rain. The
fruit outlook is still promising; berries an
iting well with prospects for a large crop.

CHICAGO, July 11. Newly Instituted war
emergency curbs on trading at Kansas
City and St. Louis, together with a pros
pective additional check on transaction
here, brought about much nervousness to
day in the corn market. After breaking;
all high-price records for the season, quo
tations closed "unsettled at V to 2 c net
advance, with September $1.504 to $1.50,
and December $1.21 to $1.21H. "Wheat
finished off to a like advance at $2.03
for July and $1.01 Vt for September. - Oats
gained to 2c. and provisions were un
changed to 10c lower.
Buying on the part of shorts carried corn
prices sharoly upgrade and then a break
ensued on word that a meeting of Chicago
Board of Trade directors hau Deen calleu.
Rains In Texas and Oklahoma failed to off
set reports that Irreparable damage had
been done in Oklahoma, and that a drought
area extended northward to the Dakota.
In the oats crowd the chief Influence was
the fact that despite numerous fluctuations
the corn market averaged higher. l Jeans n
field reports regarding oats were thus more
than counterbalanced.
Wheat eased off a little In sympathy with
corn nt the opening. besides, prospects
were said to have improved both for the
Spring and the Winter crop. After open
ing unchanged at $2.03 H July, and $1.01
September, the market receded to $1.00
September. Later the market hardened us
a, consequence of a rally In corn. The close
was steady.
Provisions descended as a result or com
weakness. An advance in hog prices seemed
to be entirely ignored.
Leading futures ranged as ioiioi;

Special crop reports received by "W. C.
Wilkes, assistant general freight and pas
senger a sent of the Spokane, Portland &
benttle Railway, follow:
From W. J. Jordan, ireneral agent; 'North
ern Pacific Railway, Lewiston. Idaho
A light shower fell in the Lewtston coun
try yesterdny afternoon and in portions of
the bean-pro win tz d is trie t around Kendrick
and Juliaetta. While there was not enough
rainfall to do very mut h good, neverth-eless
It will be of great benefit to the growing
crops.
'Conditions In Talouw country are rery
bad. Grain In some localities Is drying up
and unless wo get a good, soaking rain
within the next week or 3 0 days will not
yield 15 bushels to the acre. This applies I
especially in tho territory tributary to Troy.
Moscow, Pullman. Bushy, Chambers and
Johnson. Conditions are a little better
around Colton. TJnlontown and Genesee.
A portion of the Prairie district had a
light shower last night; not enough rain
fell, however, to be of very much benefit
except to cool the air. This district can
stand a week or 30 days of continue! warm
weather without very seriotis results: how
ever, rain is needed very badly at this time
and every day from now on without rain
Is decreasing the yield Just that much.
"I was through the Waha-Tammany
country yesterday. While rain is needed
very badly, the crops look better than I
expected to find, and unless we get hot
winds they can stand another week of dry
weather without any grea damage. In the
territory closer to Lewlston. some of the
grain has already been harvested."
From .T. T. Hardy, T. F. and P. A.. K.
P. S. and Oregon Trunk railways, from
Red m on d. Or.
"The crop conditions In Central Oregon
are not looking any too god Just now, owing
to It being so dry and hot. There has not
been any rain for fln days and the moisture
Is all getting out of the ground. Borne of
the wheat and other grain fields are looking
fnir and others are pretty bad at thla time.
Unless rain is forthcoming soon there will
not be over a half crop this year. Haying
Is going on In some sections and reports are
not very encouraging as to the amount per
acre. Hay will be at a premium around this
section this year on account of tha short
crop.
