Record Production for Hood River District. LARGE GAIN IN WASHINGTON Xropects Arc for Lighter Tield In Important Producing Sec tions of East. " The salient features of the app'e crop fore eirt Inacd yeeterdajr by the buna of crop eat) ma tee ar the proapecta of a record crop la tho wuttrn states and a crop for west am Now Tor which will probably not ex ceed moth more than one-balf of last year's crop. The Indications from Virginia. West Virginia and the heavy production centers In the middle Atlantic states promlMi only :ihUr hotter than one-half a full crop. 3fuch of tho middle western crop was verely damaged by frost and conditions throng-boat the Ohio valley particularly are erery low. Arkansas and southwest atlsso.urt Indicate about three-fourths of a crop, while Che same may ba said of New Jersey and Oelawara. All Indications In New England lolnt to a much better crop than last year, while Michigan will haTa less than two- j thirds of a crop. The northwest boxed apple crop promises to ba the largest ever produced, according te conditions the first week In June. Produc tion for Oregon. Washington and Idaho Is estimated at about 27.SOO cars of 730 boxes each, as compared with about 20.000 cars In 1018 and 25.1KK) cars In 1917. fetalis for the morthwest follow: Oregon The Hood River district will ship from 2.000.000 to 2.250.000 boxes of apples, according to present prospects, as compared with about 1..MO.00O boxes last year. Hood River promises by far Its largest crop. Other districts In Oregon are equally promising and promise bumper crops. The Rogue River Is now estimated at T."5 cars, the Al osier and Iufur section at 200 cars and the Milton Free water section at 500 cars as compared to 230 last year. The state as a whole has pros pects for nearly twice as many apples as in Washington Approximately 20.50 cars are forecasted for Washington this year as compared with about 17,X0 cars last year. Wlnesaps. which were exceedingly heavy laat year, ara reported Ilcht In places, al though all varieties seem well set and partic ularly Jonathans, which were light last year. A heavy Juna drop la reported in progress In the Yakima valley. Up until this time crop prospects were excellent and It now seems that the entire Yakima valley, including Vskfma and Benton counties, may ahlp approximately 90f0 cars or about 15u0 cars more than last year. With the excep tion of limited sections affected by frost the Wenatcheo north central Washington district promises an excellent crop, and there .are prospects at rhls time for abofft 9000 cars as compared with S300 cars last year. The TVaIa Walla diet net. which laat year shipped eaty 130 cars, has prospects fur nearly 1000 cars In 1919. of which half will ba Rome beauttes. Reports from Ppokane emphasize the frost damage and June drop, and the crop now promlffi to be between 600 and 800 cars. Taking Washington state aa a whole ft, seems this state may ship its largest apple crop. Idaho Definite estlmatea are difficult on account of June drop. - Various reports give record 83 00 -ear crop of 1&17. The Lev Is ton j - district wi;i have better than 400 cars. The condition of the crop for the United Ftatrs Is now Indicated at 61.48 per cent as compared Uh t3.6 per rent as an average ten-year condition on June 1, and a condi tion of t9 . pr cent June 1 last year.
