The westbound freight rate on oats and
corn from the Middle. West to this city
was recently advanced to 76 cents a hun
dred. to correspond with the rate on wheat
shipments, although there is no such move

justice of such a rate was pointed out by
local grain men to.F. W. Robinson, chair
man ef the Portland district freight traffic
committee, and they are advised that the
tariff will be amended, making the rates
61 to 61 cents, a change satisfactory to all
concerned in tne hanaung or these cereals.

WASHINGTON
WHEAT
MATURES
Spring Grain Progresses Unsatisfactorily,
owing to Deficient Moisture.
The Washington weekly crop report says
extremely hot weather in the eastern di
vision, without alequate rain, was adverse
to growing crops, but favorable for haying
and harvest. Cutting barley and early oats;
yield fair to poor. Rain Is much needed for
pastures and vegetable gardens which are
suffering from lack of moisture. Winter
wheat maturing nicely, cutting generally,
quality fair.
Early Spring wheat cutting will begin
about the 20th: crop is making unsatisfac
tory progress on account of deficient rain
, fall, and some has been badly burnt by hot
winds.
