'; Elsewhere dry weather continues and a general water: shortage is beint; felt in Utah, Nevada. Idaho and por tions of California. - Stock water ! fs becoming scarce in parts ofUtah. : Temperatures averaged slightly below the seasonal ' average, except In south eastern Idaho, Utah, southern Nevada and Arizona, where it Was 1 degree to fi degrees above normal. On the whole the weather, was ideal for farm work, but in "many places unlrrigated crops are suffering from insufficient moisture. The nights were too cool in the interior of northern California for the best growth of rice, and light frost formed in the eastern . portion of Oregon on one or two mornings, without, however, doing any. harm of consequence. , - Grala The harvesting of winter wheat baa begun in the northern portion of this district, and it Is drawing to a close in the southern sections. The crop, has been Improved by rains in Arizona, but it is somewhat shrunken in Utah on account of the long drouth ; it to maturing rap idly in Idaho and Washington. " Winter wheat stood the drouth better than ex pected in Washington, although v, it is somewhat shrunken. Yields in , Oregon are fair to good ; in California the early sown is good and the late sown poor. Spring wheat Is poor in Utah and Califor nia.; it Is suffering from lack of rain in Oregon, and in Washington where much is burnt or is heading short and becoming shriveled. Corn Is standing ths dry weather fairly well and made a good growth during the week. Oats are doing well in Washington, and in the Willamette valley, but elsewhere in Ore gon the crop needs rain. Track Crops and Potatoes ', Potatoes were improved by the rain in Arizona" and this crop made ; good progress in California and Nevada. Po tatoes are being harvested in Oregon. Tomatoes promise well in Utah. ' Alfalfa aad Clover The condition t alfalfa in Utah is only fair on account of insufficient wat er. Jji Nevada - a large crop is ' being stacked In excellent condition,, and in Idaho the second crop is making rapid growth, Hay balinf; is well along in California. . ":: 'Ranges aad Livestock -t In Arisona. the- heavy rains Improved forage greatly, and stock are responding satisfactorily ; water tanks were i re plenished and conditions generally are now very good.. Pastures and ranges are uniformly poor in the lower areas in Utah, but in the : mountains the few rains that occurred were of much luelp ; cattle in that state are generally- good, but failing locally, lambs are thin and sheep only in fair condition. The ranges in Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and California are deteriorating. . but stock generally continue In good condi tion. " Trait ' ; The Utah cherry crop, has been gath ered, and other fruit in that state is doing welL Apricots and early peaches are coming Into the market from Km mett valley in Idaho.": In Oregon, early apples, peaches and apricots are ripening and the Loganberry harvest is progress ing with good yields. , , Walnuts i.and grapes ia California are promising,-and the apricot harvest ia now -at its height ; apricots - are : somewhat -onderslsed, but otherwise excellent The drop of navel oranges in California Is lessening, and in some places Vaienclas are beingplcked. ' Miscellaneous rons , --The warm weather helped cotton in the Imperial valley and this crop - is making excellent progress in 'Arisona. Cantaloupe shipments from Arisona, tare the largest of record and the crap in that state as well as in California - is ripening under very favorable weather conditions. Sugar beets are doing well In Utah, but a. water shortage ils threatened which may later affect this crop unfavorably Sugar beets In Cal ifornia are doing nicely, except in some localities in the interior counties where they are suffering from Insufficient wat er. Unlrrigated beans need rain, but there were number of foggy mornings in the coast counties which helped this crop very materially. f FLOCR - Selling jrrice; Patent, 811 45; family wheat flour. 81 1.83; -whole wheat ftonr. 81O.5O01O.75; Willamette ' valley. 311.35; local straight, 811.25 011.35; .bakers' local. 810.90 011.10; Una tana spring wheat, patent. 311.10; rye flour, 910.00; oat flour, 91O.0O; grabam. 910.15 010.50.
