According to growers,- the quality pf
' this year's crop will be well aboye the
average, for the yards have scarcely
been attacked by vermin, and thus far
no mold is noted. This will allow the
growers to allow their hops to fully
mature. . The fact that prices are very
low will also enable the growers to hold
off picking until-the last minute, for
nil aeem to realize that It would be use
less to pick anything but a first-class
hop this season. . " -. .
A ' Andrew Kan, th wealthy merchant of

the total crop of 'Oregon this season
