FALL SOWN WHEAT
IS DEVELOPING WELL
Other Grains Make Progress
in Coast States.
SOWING IS NEARLY OVER
Plantings of Early Potatoes Is Com
pleted 1'ru-lt Crop Surfer but
Little Front Frost.
Winter v. heat is developing well in all
sections of the Pacific coast, says the week
ly crop bulletin of .the district Just 'issued.
It is in the boot in Douglas county, Oregon,
jointing in Washington and heading in por
tions of California; other grains generally
are making satisfactory growth. Late spring
seeding is nearly completed in northern
states, and the soil is in excellent ' condition
for rapid germination and growth. . In Ari
zona, barley stravr is beginning to turn yel
low, and in some sections of California bar
ley and oats are heading short and are being
cut for hay.
Planting of early potatoes in Idaho has
been completed, and in Oregon they are al
ready coming up; potato planting continues
In California and also in Washington where
planting of gardens is now general. Cali
fornia and Arizona truck: crops are in good
condition.
Alfalfa harvest continues in Arizona; the
first cutting in California has been com
pleted, some alfalfa and other hay having
been injured by late rain. The growth of
alfalfa and clover, generally was satisfac
tory, and showers and warn weather in Ne
vada were very favorable for the germina
tion of alfalfa seed recently sown.
Most ranges, meadows and pastures are
In good condition; irrigation Is being prac
ticed in Jerome district, Idaho, and good
rains would help pastures in Utah and on
California lowlands. Desert ranges are
holding out well. Cattle and sheep are
thriving and in the southeast are moving
to summer range. Lambing is beginning
under favorable conditions in Utah, con
tinues in the northern states, and is nearly
completed in the southwest. Shearing is
progressing; it is nearly finished in northern
California where the clip is reported to be
unusually good and many growers have al
ready sold their wool.
Karly varieties of deciduous fruit are
blossoming; injury from low temperatures
has been slight and fruit prospects are very
good. Navel oranges are nearly all picked;
also some Valcncias which are of good size
and quality and show less frost damage
than the navels. Lemons suffered most
Irom frost, but an unusually heavy crop will
be shipped.
In Idaho and California, sugar beet seed
ing is well under way, and in the latter
state the planting of rice, beans and cotton
continues. Where already up, these crops
are making satisfactory advancement,
though general rains would be beneficial in
Utah and California.

especially those in the great iron and steel
Industry, remain conspicuous, but that de
cisive recovery from the after-war depression
has occurred in some other leading branches
is no longer to be nouDtsu. and. best of all
there lias boen a further strengthening of
that confidence which is essential to sus
tained progress. It Is. not a question, in
snort, as to wnetner conaitions nave lm
proved, but only as to what lengths the com
mercial revival has already carried and as
to how loon the general peace-time expan
sion, which seams to be clearly portended,
will make its appearance.
All the traditional elements of prosperity
are present, economically the country has
moved Into a powerful situation and but for
the delay in the adjustment of those com
plex international problems which have in
evitably come as an aftermath of the great
est war in history, the domestic business
development would probably be more far-
reaching and rapid. .

accumulation or stocks which It Is
difficult to move at best, but some dealers
were not Inclined to shade present prices
too much on high priced goods In order
to clear their floors and some tendency to
storing is noted. Cars in light demand anil

even at the lower figures quoted and very
few sales were reported at the moment.
92-score. 57 Vic.
New Tork. There was a decidedly easier
feeling on the market today with a de
cline of about 1 cent on all grades. The
finer grades were in rather light supply and
buyers demanding strictly fine quality had
difficulty In locating it. The receipts are
showing off flavors to a considerable de
gree and undergraaes are quite plentiful
and rather hard to move. Cars of central
ized scoring 89 to 00 points were being of
fered at &7V.&58c. Cars of California Mn
boxes were offerings at 57&57Vbc, a good
car of Canadian creamery scoring about 90
pulnts selling at 5M&59V4c. The general
feeling is that tho market Is easy to weak.

Increase In storage holdings and a decrease
