thla time tha quality will be tha best

At the- season a end. however, the pro

a good start The vines grew faster this
season thsa In any previous year; thla
despite "the" temporary setback during

good rains early saved the hop crop of
Oregon rrora being ruined. A sufficient
amount of moisture was already atored
In tha ground to enable the crop te pull

production would have been materially
Increased. . ' . '
It Is yet a trifle early to make an ab

are net half so bad as they seem. A
drive through the Aurora. Buttevllle,
Chanipoeg, Elliott Prairie. Hubbard and
Wood burn districts show the crop to
be almost aa good as a year ago. In
Some sections there has been a general
lack of cultivation, but even there the

McMlnnviUe. Or.. Aug. IS. Hon bual
neas In Yamhill county has been on the
move for several weeks. During the
past week 17 contracts war recorded
amounting to about 111,000 pounds, or
nearly 7t balee. This brings the total
bop ; contracts recorded up to nearly
e.soo naiea and numbers of contracts
made which are not . recorded. -
A rough estimate of , the acreaaa of
tne county elaoee It at 1.000 acres, an
Increase of about S per cent over laat
year? - The .yield - will : be about- 1.00
pounds to the acre, or in all about
10,000 bales. ....
The hot weather has changed tha eon.
dltion of tha crop very materially. It
has eut down the yield at least 10 ear
cent. - Rain Is very badly needed to
secure a good yield. This ahortare will
exist notwithstanding tha slight In
crease In acreage. -
Ths quality of the hops Is first class.
There are no lice. Another thing which
will cut down the yield tr lack of culti
vation. At tha time when yarda should
have been cultivated the price of hop
waa very low and growers cultivated
their yards In proportion to the price.
There la only one yard In tha vicinity of
MCMlnnvllle where the grower hoed
sround the hills. Some yarda were not
even plowed. These conditions will
make the crop lees than laat year un
leaa rain cornea, and that would now b
almost too late for any good.
Ths crop is of even growth end pick
Ing will begin aa early as usual about
September 1. The growth in general Is ,
very even. All growers in this county
will pay f 1 per 10 pounds for picking.
No growers will pay for picking by the
box as this Is generally unsatisfactory
to them. There la no acarclty . of
pickers except in the vicinity of North
Yamhill, where some difficulty Is being
experienced In aecurlng help.
The highest price paid on contract
thus far has been IT cnts to Mr.
Ouemer of Amity and Mr. Brown of
thla city. The Brown hops are all
"bablee." - Off era of II centa were made
