the condition of the crop Is really
only fractionally below that of a year
ago that Is tha probable production
per acre will be alightly below 191$.
This may seem rather queer to tho
that have heard all recent reports tnat
the crop was going to the bow-wows.
but this Is not really the case.
There is, to be sure, a great need
of additional and heavy precipitation
but that would only add to the present
crop prospects. A good rainfall would
mean that much of the spring wheat
would fill better than If no additional
showers; were available.
Fact of the matter Is that walla
Walla county is this year showing; its
most wonderful crop. This should not
be taken to mean In number of bush
els produced per acre, but to tha total
production. For about 17 years thera
has never before been such a season.
At least for that time the present Juno
broke all records for amallness of
rainfall.
Up ln tha foothills the outlook for
wheat Is normal. It la not a really
big or amall crop; It la an average In
dication per acre. In tha Eureka flat
country that section which has c Se
ated millionaires out of poor men, so
to spea.k lh a financial way, there is
some damage indicated to the crop,
but I have never to date heard of a
season when this waa not also true.
The fact of tha matter Is that Eureka
flat has a big acreage of wheat planted
this fceason, and while the greatest
per cent of It Is spring sowing, still
the crop prospects ar really average
onea. Fall Wheat on the flat really
looka good. Little of It appears to ba
damaged at this time, although the
spring sowing will be somewhat shriv
eled unless that wanted rain appears
before long.
Up toward Prescott tha outlook Is
fully a normal one for wheat although
naturally there is much disappoint
ment among growers that the outlook
is not even better.

Hams said: "Th preaident has signed -th
amendment to th federal reaerv
act. changing the reaerv requirements
of national banks from this data (June
zz.) Th law require aU national
banks In central reaerv cltioja to main- -tain
in their respective federal reaere '
banks a balance of IS per cent of da- .
mand deposits; banks in rerv cities V
reserve of 10 per cent on demand a
posits, and country banks a reserve of
7 per cent on demand deposits. Na
tional banks in central reaerv eltlis,
reserve cities and also country banker
will be required to keep a raaarra ea '
their time deposits of 3 per cent In-'
stead of the per cent heretofore re-
quired. National banks ara not new
required to keep reserve against gov
ernment deposits. The law doas not "
require national banka to keep rsrve
other than those they are required to ,
carry ln their respective reserve banks,
but each bank will, of course, naturally
arrange to carry in Its own vault suf
flclent funds to meet its current cash
requlrementa. The federal reaerv
board has requested that national
banks In central reserve cities , bring
their balances with their reserve banka .
up to the new requirements not later
than the 27th inat. In order that tha
transfer on increased balances to the
federal reserve banks, by country
banks and reserve city banks may ba .
made with the least Inconvenience, tha
federal reserve board has suggested '.
that if the reserve Increases required,
under the new law are provided by
reserve city banks and country banks .
not later than July IB, and the re
serve carried with the federal reaerv
banks are maintained meantime at not
less than the percentage heretofore re
quired, the federal reserve banks may '
omit for this Intervening period tha'
imposition of penalties for reserve de- '
flcincies against those national bank
which shall not before July II bring
their reserve balances with their ret
aerv banks up to the foil percentage
required by the new law."
