WHEAT HARVEST
. RECORD PROVES
LARGEST IN HISTORY
-Continued From Pago One.)
, ;'" On the same acreage in the Gem state
. as a year ago, and with the present
. Showing in Oregon and Washington, the
,'- yield this season would have been closer
,.. to 83,000,000 bushels than the present
, showing of 78,530,000 bushels.
There were surprises in store for
wheat growers In nearly all section's of
the Pacific northwest this season.
' Yields of 45 to 60 bushels per acre were
comparatively common, and In many
. places where the average production In
recent years has not been more than
10 to 25 bushels, many 30 to 35-bushel
.. crops were actually sacked this year.
Central Oregon, Southeastern Oregon,
Eastern Oregon and the Pa louse were all
- big surprises this ceason. In each of
these districts the yields were greater
than former estimates, while only in
the Big Bend of Washington was even
a slight decrease noted. The latter was
v lue to the poor start that the spring
crop had and the loss during the har
vest Klamath County Surprises.
In the Columbia river counties Gil-
:11am. Morrow and Sherman the yields
v 1 were fractionally better than had been
, J expected, and these forecast the great
' ,; est crop those sections had ever known.
- Even the quality of the wheat was
hot so badly damaged In the three states
as first reports hud Indicated. Central
, Oregon and eastern Oregon wheat Is up
to every expectation; the Columbia river
counties contributing their biggest as
well as best quality crop ever known.
A surprtsu of the season was the
big showing of the Klamath country, I
from Which only a very small crop had
; Been expected. Latest reports from
there indicated that the harvest showed
XT least s. fourth -marirwiieaT" than had
: fceen expected and the only difficulty
there was that growers, never realized
. they had such a big output and did not
purchase a sufficient number of sacks
for their needs.
"While no late estimate lias ben made
Of the ottts crop of the three states,
lowing to the lateness of the season, in
dividual yields in almost every section
