GRAIN CROP BEST
IN SEVERAL YEARS
Threshing Returns Equal
Exceed Expectations.
or
RECORD1 IN SOME SECTION'S
Walla Walla, Pendleton and ILew
Iston Ilstrict9 Will Average
Over 35 .Bushels Per Acre.
Reports recefvad from ths lower Colum
bia river station of the Spokane. Portland
& Seattle railway continue favorable. Hay
crop harvested were very good and pas
turage seems to warrant ample feed for
ail livestock. Cranberries have never
appeared better and extremely large yields
of fine quality berries are expected by
owners or bogs. Potatoes In some cen
ters are badly in need of rain and this,
coupled with small acreage under culti
vation will make a crop much" under nor
mal. Growers were reluctant to plant
much seed owing to the low prices re
ceived from the 1920 yields.
Considerable farm development work Is
being done in -the vicinity of Rainier, and
renewed activity In land transactions Is
noted. A great many loganberry plants
slave been set out this year following ex
haustive investigations as to their fit
Bess as a successful crop. Grain crops.
Bow practically all harvested or being
cut, are apparently in very fine shape and
the yields will be considerably over normal.
Bt. Helens reports that It Is generally
conceded that crops have never been as
good as they are now. The season .has
fceen ideal for growths of all kinds, with
only two exceptions, apples and prunes,
which were damaged badly by the 1820
Ireeze.
Clarke county. Wash., as evidenced by
reports received from all sources. Is about
to close one of its best years. With the
exception of the prune crop, damaged
early in the season, all crops will return
above normal yields. Prices have been
better than anticipated early In the sea
son and growers generally seem very well
pleased.
Grain In the territory around Goldendale
la netting growers In the neighborhood of
20 bushels per acre, which is far above any
yield from thl section In several years
past. Weather conditions are Ideal for
harvesting and grain is being rapidly
moved to warehouses and elevators.
Washtucna reports an average of 23
bushels or over per acre in that territory,
which is one of the best returns this sec
tion has ever known. Weather conditions
are favoring the speedy protection of the
crop. With prices stable wheat should
begin to move next week.
An average of better than 20 bushel per
acre in wheat acreage, both spring and
fall sown, la report for the vicinity sur
rounding Kah lotus. Wash. This estab
lishes a record crop there. Some grain
Is now moving to market, but generally
growers are holding for better prices.
Harvesting In the Benge district is now
in full swing and an average yield of 22
Busnels per acre Is shown, which Is 50
ger cent better than last year and consid
erably better than for several years past.
Weather is perfect for safe garneiing of
crops. Spring wheat Is giving 20 bushels
to the acre at Macall station. Winter
wheat will yield considerably heavier and
where harvested shows very fine qual
ity. Practically all crops have been con
tracted for by grain dealers.
Lamont. Wash., reports that SO to 3
bushels of winter wheat and 15 to 20
bushels of spring wheat are the average
yield per acre. This is the best showing
that has been made In this vicinity for
live yeara Owing to the difference In
cost of production, farmers should receive
a fair return for their labor. Damage
by drouth to spring wheat Is reducing
somewhat the large returns expected from
this section of the Spokane, Portland &
Seattle railway, but even with this draw
back the entire eastern Washington
country will return a banner crop far
eibove the normal yield. Pasturage is
practically gone and livestock men are
Seeding; stock.
Pears In the Taklma valley are showins-
heavier stands than for several years, with
trood prices obtaining. Peaches, while the
crop Is short, are of exceptionally fine
quality. Apricots still show the effect of
the 1019 and 1920 freezes. Apples will
how a great return, but growers are du
vious aoout me price Which. Is not very
favorable now. Hay crops generally were
never as good, but prices now In evidence
re causing actual losses as growers say
the cost of production Is in excess ot that
offered for the crop.
Walla Walla. Pendleton and Lewlston
grain yieias are tne Dest In years, an
average of over 35 bushels per acre. Even
with the present prices growers should
have a very good year in view of the
cost ot production. A large amount of
grain is already contracted for by grain
men.
slve, however, as the demand was good,
particularly for melons. cantaloupes,
lemons and peaches.
Cantaloupe prices were cut sharply,
which aided the movement. Forty-fives
were quoted at $2.75. SSs at $2.50 and
flats at tl.251.40. The California crop
is coming on now with a rush and in
some growing sections the price has
dropped so low the growers have quit
picking.
Peach receipts were of good size and
the best grades cleaned up quickly.
BCTTER PRODUCTION HOLDS UP
Fcesh Egr Receipts Are About Normal for
Season Throughout Country.
The butter market has shown ' some
weakness during the latter part of this
week, resulting In definitely lower prices
at the close. This is due to a slight fall
ing off In the demand and the fact that
production is keeping up remarkably well,
considering the season, says the Weekly
Produce Review of Swift & Co. of Chicago.
Poultry receipts are Increasing and prices
are generally unchanged. As spring
chickens reach the marketing age. the
movement wll undoubtedly increase, re
sulting in stome decline In buying and
selling values.
Receipts ot fresh eggs are about nor
mal for this season of the year, with
quality generally reported as improving
and prices ruling a little higher than in
the previous week.
