Newspaper Page TextTIIE MORNING OREG ONIAN, THURSDAY. JUNE 13, 1918. 19 HOT WINDS INJURE Cereal Crops in Eastern Ore gon Counties Suffer. RAIN IS BADLY NEEDED Vnlcss Grain Soon Has Moisture. Damage Will Be Irreparable. Spring Wheat Worse Than Tall Sown Fruit Fair to Good. Growing grain in Eastern Oregon coun ties is greatly in need of rain. Damage has already been caused by hot winds. The weekly Oregon crop report issued yesterday oy Edward L. Wells, of the local "Weather Bureau. 3ays: 'With moderate high temperatures during tho past week some crops have made good growth, but drought continues over nearly every portion of the state and most crops are suffering from lack of moisture, and unless rain comes soon the damage will be irreparable. Hot, desiccating winds have also aggravated conditions and caused much Injury to grains and grasses. The hot weather, however, seems to have caused some relief from aphis in localities where fears had been entertained that the infested crops were damaged beyond recovery, hut this Insect pest is still detrimental in the Willamette Valley. "Fall grains, which were well rooted, ap pear to be in better condition than the Spring sown, but all need good rains to In sure even normal crops. Barley Is ripening in a few places, with only a fair crop in dicated. Rye Is generally poor, and this maple as well as oats and Spring wheat are suffering for moisture. Winter wheat, although still good, is being unfavorably affected by the dry winds, the heads are small and complaints were received that the crop was beginning to burn In north central counties. 'Haying has bgun in Benton and Doug las counties under favorable conditions. The first cuttings of alfalfa have been made in some districts, the crop being poor and light and not up to expectations, while in irrigated sections it Is growing well and the first crop is nearly ready .for harvest. Pastures and ranges continue poor, and in sufficient feed Is causing some stock to be shipped out of the state. "Cherries are maturing in Jackson and Marion counties and the hot weather is rapidly ripening strawberries, which lat ter crop is not up to the average. The tree fruit outlook is fair to good in western val leys, but in other places the prospects are not encouraging, although the frost in jury was not so great as first anticipated. "The warm weather has stimulated growth of corn and potatoes and these crops are doing well, but they would be greatly bene fited by copious showers. Truck crops and gardens also have shown marked improve ment during the last few days and where irrigation was possible have made excellent progress. TU I K OATS ARE DOLLAR HIGHER Local Market Responds to Advances on With the continued, advance in Eastern markets, local oats' values have firmed up. Bids on bulk oats at the Merchants' Ex change yesterday were $1 a ton higher than on Tuesday. No change was made In sacked cats. Corn bids were advanced tl.

SELL ON COOLER WEATHER Efforts to Collect Profits Meet Willi Difficulty and Brisk Advance in Prices Is Result Movement From Farms Larger. CHICAGO, June 12. Bears overruled them selves today selling corn. An unexpected re turn of cool weather made thfc selling look reasonable, but efforts to collect profits met with unusual difficulty and forced a sharp advance In prices. The market closed strong 21ic to 2 ",4c net higher, with July $1.44 1.45 and August $t.4H 1.4614. Oats gained He to o and provisions to 55c. Besides, temperatures suddenly back to normal, a liberal movement from rural sources had a further tendency to depress corn vales. Upturns in oats were due to sympathy with the advance, of corn. Exporters appeared to be out of the market. Provisions hardened, owing chiefly to an advance In the value of hogs. Leading futures ranged as follows: CORN. Open. High. Low. Close.

ROSEBURG. June 12. (Special.) In many parts of Douglas County hot weather and long continued drouth are two factors that threaten a decided crop shortage. The rain fall for the season so far Is a trifle over eight Inches short of normal. May was dry month, with only a little over half of the usual rain. Winter wheat, particularly on uplands, where the stand looked good during the late winter montns ana early Spring, is showing evidence of shortage to a marked degree in some localities. Spring grain is looking badly lust now. Much grain Is heading out and practically past any help even if a good rain should come, and in many Instances Spring crops will scarcely be worth the cutting if this hot, dry weather continues. Vetch crops that were attacked by aphis have practically been destroyed in a few localities. As soon as the hot weather came the aphis died, but the damage was done. On river bottom and other heavy soils grain is holding up fairly well. Gardens are also suffering for need of rain, and where persons have planted large acreages of beans or other products for canning anxiety is felt. Heretofore rains have come in the nick of time to save the situation, and everybody is banking on the past record in this matter.
