THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, THURSDAY, JULY 13, 1916. 13 COLUMBIA COUNTY -SISTER STATE TO HAVE FAIR WOF GRAIN Yield of Barley Estimated at About 900,000 Bushels; Wheat 1,100,000 Bushels. PROSPECTS MAY CHANGE Condition Are Much the Same as In Other Districts of Pacific North west Drain Belt; xss FtiilmUm. By flyman Its Cohen. Dayton, Wash., July 13. Columbia county resembles other counties of - the nirthwut already visited, no far j an the Rraln crops are concerned. There is tlia same sort of climatic fornllUonn to report, a almlltir de crease In the area planted, and a very bar-kward season, together with n plentiful anpply of "Jim XI 111" and other crop-taking weed. ' Nevertheless, there Is less pessimism ( , In this ae'-tiorr regardlna the crop than elsewhere. Columbia? county will not bay the crop of a year bri, and tip to thin time I have visited few sections that will equal the 1 U 1 5 pro duct Ion. While Columbia county barley N perhaps the best known of the. cereal, there Is more wheat area In the coun ty thmr liarle. totals of the former belriK approximately tin, 000 acrnn, com puter! with perhaps 40,000 acrea of barley. Season Xs Backward. 1explle thiH handicap of area plant ed, there Is going to he about as much Imrlty pniilin-ril In the county this season, harring accidents to the crop prcvl us to harvest, as of wheat. While, the season Is still very back ward, and It Is possible for the crop to decrease or increase somewhat from Its present showing, Indications point to a 900,000 bushel barley crop, I compared with about 1,000,000 bush- la a yenr aaro. The wheat crop for I the season will approximate 1.100,000 bushels, compared with 1,780,000 bush els a year ago. The better showing: of the barley crop on the area reported planted Is due t the fact that the barley acre age tills season shows a smaller per centage of loss as compared with wheat of a year ago. and that the spring- barley in making most excel lent progress at this time. It would h but a repetition to aay that the crop prospects of Columbia county have Improved materially dur ing the last few weeks. Practically every section of the rnclfii north west already visited showed a similar trend. Timely Sains Aid Barley. Timely rains have come to the res cue of barley growers Just at the time that aid was most greatly needed. The season Is later by several weeks than normal, and this is the chief reason for fear for the future. In some portions of Columbia coun ty the barley is (retting: near the cut ting staffe, and the wheat crop ha. ip similar sections begun to take on Its xfeisoriabt golden clow.
