SPOKA5E MAS SATS WHEAT
OUTLOOK IS KOT SERIOUS
Spokane, June 18. iNo alarm over the con
dition of wheat is eastern Washington is felt
by grain men in touch with tit situation, ia
spit of an official report from the state grain
inspector'a office to the effect that the situ
ation is critical.
"1 do not regard th situation a at all criti
cal." said N. A. Robetrs of the Northern Grain
A Warehouse company here today. "Kain is
needed, it ia true, but it may come in 10 days,
and still save the gram. I am not looking
for a bumper crop, however. There has been
some frot damage, but on the whole 1 retard
the situation aa fairly satisfactory."
"Some rain hu , fallen in the Watervill
country and has extended into the Mansfield dis
trict," said K. J. Stephens of th Stephens
Smith Grain company. "Rain is needed in
nearly all districts but if it comes within the
next lO days, it will be time enough, especially
if the weather remains as coo! as it in now."
BUMPER CROP IS INDICATED
IX MARION WHEAT FIELDS
Quinaby. Or.. June 18. Heavy shower dur
ing the past week 'have mate a bumper wheat
crap a certainty in this section, has revived pas
tures and prpmoted a fair start for a second crop.
Th rain found many acres ot clover down in the
field, but the return of sunshine, has made farm
era hopeful of saving It before it shall be at
tacked by mould.
Early cherries were a light erop. the birds
securing the greater part of it. but Koyal Annea
which are just ripening, promise well. The Cal
ifornia thrip left but few pears and prunes in this
section, apples will be about half a crop, while
plums of many varieties, and grapes promise
better than for many years. The recent opening
of a jam factory at Salem makes available many
plums which were previously wasted.

A sudden cessation of grain bag buying is
showing. There baa beui more or leas talk
within th last few day of a probable ' short
age of bags to fill requirements for this sea
son' seep in the. Pacific Northwest, bat this
view is by no means shared at the moment by
th leading fig manufacturers of this city.
According te the A me-Harris-Neville . com
pany the situation today la the grain tug mar
ket ia trifle weaker than a few day ago.
Speculators kave become tired of holdings and
in some instances are offering bags down- to
12 c each for No. 1 Calcutta although th
general market here stands at 18c in carload
lots, Ob Pget Sound sales were xaad during
th last few days as high u 13!4c
Just what the future of th grain ban mar

unwilling to predict. They say that practically

more bags than figured upon, but a smaller
crop there will create more bags for the Pacifie
Northwest. Then again there are many bags

of any on of. these shin with a considerable
quantity of bag on board would create some
shortage. This, however, is borrowing trouble
and at th moment there appears no reason to
fear a shortage.
aanaeai Crop Prospects
Regarding general crop prospects in Oregon.
Frank Gillam of the Portland office of the
Steather bureau advises:
The week was characterized by unusually
cool weather Tor the second decade of June,
particularly in northeastern counties wher kill
ing frosts were experienced that checked the
growth of vegetation and caused considerable
injury to staple crops which were just recover
ing from the effects of previous freesing weath
er. Beneficial showers occurred but they were
mostly confined to coast counties and the Willam
ette valley; elsewhere in non-irrigated districts
rsin is badly needed. The sunshine waa gener
ally adequate, bat low temperatures retarded
vegetation. Farm work, aa a rule, was up to
the average fox the season, although some com
plaint waa received of scarcity of labor.
Winter wheat continues good to excellent and.
while rain would help in filling the crop east of
the Cascade mountains, th prolonged cool
weather has been beneficial and prospects are
promising. Barley, oats and spring wheat are
fair to good, these crops were Improved by rains
in western counties, but in other districts are
suffering from lack of moisture. Cora made
slow growth, ia turning yellow in some localities
and needs warm weather for best results. 1
Fruit of all kinds continues promising except
where injured by frost and freezing- weather in

Yamhill county until he came to Port
land some time ago, who brought to

over th mountains and compared it
to the ; ultra-modern flyings machines
which he , watched ; In Portland skies
