HEAVY ALFALFA CROP

Hermlston. Or.. Jun Jl. Th sowing
of alfalfa her Is th greatest known. It
Is estimated that It tons of seed have
been planted on the project this season.
Scarcely any two growers agree as
to the amount of seed per acre to sow,
Home are" as low aa eight pounds. From
that the amount goes on up to 10, 12,
14 and 16 and Superintendent Allan, of
th experiment station, says II would
be better. Taking as an average 14
pounds to the acre, one finds that 16
tons will rover J14Sarre. Even at the
top quantity of H pounds It Is seen
that thore were 1760 acres seeded this
aeason.
What percentage of this will make
good sland la entirely problematical
Using a safe figure, aa In th number
of 'pound to the acre, we will aay only
60 per cent of 1760 acres is set. This
leaves 1400 acrea. A conservative esti
mate would be sev4h tons per acre
This would mean 11,800 tons added to
the output as a result of this season's
seeding. With hay worth $$ per ton
and It has alwaya been worth more
ther has been added to the Incom of

WASHINGTON FAUIT
CROP 80 PER CENT sepl
uec.
Walla Walla. Wash.. June 21. Fruit
In the state of Washington this year
wtll be about so per cent or an average
crop, according to state Horticultural
Commissioner F. A. Huntley, who is In
the city. He estimates that there will
be about 40 to 60 rr cent of last year's
crop, taking an rruit as a wnoie.
"Last year was, of course, an excep
tional yield," said Mr. Huntley, "and we
cannot figure from that In estimating
this years crop, comparatively, now-
ever, I should say we will get not more
than 40. to 60 per cent of last year's
crop. Taking the average crop ror com
parison, I ythould say ws will get about
80 ner cent.
"Walla Walla's orchards appear to ma
to be In good shape, and possibly less
damaged from late frosts than in any
other locality. Frost damage was not
lafge anywhere, however, and few locali
ties are suffering greatly from that. I
think Walla Walla will have all her
share, perhaps more, of this year's
crop, taxing all rruits together.
Cherries at Hood River.
Hood River, Or.. June 31. Cherries In
Hood River valley are beginning to
ripen and aome or the earlier varieties
are being picked for market They are
packed In 10 pound boxes and shipped
to eastern markets. The crop wss
sllrfhtlv inlured here by the late frosts.
but In view of the fact that the crop
was so very heavy a full crop will be
realized.

Oatu Karkv is Foor,
There waa a very slow demand for
cattle at North Portland during the past
14 hours, and prices are nominally low
er. The run for the day was only (1
head, but to this supply was sdded a
number of loads that were carried over
from yesterday, owing to the Inability
of commission handlers to force the
Dries they believed-Justified.
At Chicago there was a steady tone
in the hog trade, witn no general change
in values.
South Omaha cattle trade was strong
to higher, with eteers 16.05 0(.1(, and
cows at ib.ssqs.io. i nererore me local

Poor Sheep neglected.
With most of recent arrivals In the
North Portland sheep pens, of very poor
quality, mure ua pern a uearin oi ouy-
ers for offerings. While fancy sheep
and lambs are In demand although the
latter is now quoted down to 15.75 for
tops, half-fats are hard to move even
at the lower range. There were arrivals
of 1493 head of sheep and lambs In the
local yards since yesterday's report,
comparing with 1739 on this same day a
week ago.
Yearlings are now getting so big that
they are generally out In the wether
class and few quotations above $4 need
be expected in that line. In fact It would
take some very good stuff to bring his
figure.
At Chicago there was a steady tone
In the sheep and lamb trade with no
