Thoae who are figuring on a very heavy production of hop " 'f,' thla eeaaon will likely J sto"1 when the final reports of the coming harvest come In. . . f, . The yards never before showed the Tiackward appearance they do at this time. While in some sections and In a few Isolated spots the yards look aa well as ever, but the average condition . ' a - trh rultlvat on has been too lax in most quarters to bring forth a heavy yield. .- r,.,r This has been an unusual s?on-.n"r; Ing the winter and spring the rainfall was much below the average and t s quite likely that even the best cult! -. vated -yards will suffer for lark of moisture before the harvest removes all danger. It Is a certainly mat in Cultivated and the slightly cultivated yards will suffer In fact some of them are alreadv showing signs of drought.

It Is stated that Carmlehael of Salem has taken a number of small contracts : on the growing crop for English ac count at 10c a poifnd and on receipt of this rumor many fo'e;, ,?r fiJ2 be Invading the of nee of the PP buyer In an effort to sell their 1908 growth. Mr. Carmlchael neither denies jior affirms the report and there, may and may not be anything In It as far as new business Is concerned. Some inter ests are of the opinion that the con tracts are merely old transactions which are recorded each year. A year - ago a number of term contracts wire Jr.. s and 10c a Dound and thse. contracts which are now attract- i inar so tnuoti attention in m u may be The ones maoe m -una Could rind Many Offers to Bell. a th, nrlp. renorted 10c n ponnd a contractor could undoubtedly receive the offers of a great many bales. It s believed bv the trade that at least half of the coming nop prouucnun ims tied up in contracts between grower an.l ' dealer and that more than this amount has been sold short by dealers who have '. r,nt vet covered all their sales. Thl , MinHi'tinn mav nossiblv mean higher . prices,, hut . just how .much, the trade does not even figure. With their store houses already full of hops, the brewers 1 would very lmeiy iaKe a smaii prom on their purchases and allow the seller - to cover In cash Instead of the actual hop. However, the market must reach . several cents, higher before this would be likely to happen. If it could happen at all. The New York Producers' Price Cur rent thus reviews the situation: "The Inactivity In all our markets continues, and business is practically at standstill. There Is also an absence Of demand noted from brewers, who are generally complaining of- still further losses In beer sales. Crop reports are practically unchanged, although there is some complaint In New York state that lack of rain is hurting the vines, and - that If we do not get some wet weather very soon the yield may suffer. There In no change In coast prospects, and from Kngland and the continent the re ports are fjivorable." New Tork Prices.
