New York, July 11. (t N. 8.) An easier

Influence of weather on crops as re
ported by the local weather bureau for
the past week follows: i f
Heavy- shdwers have fallen In t
rang-e section of Arizona, and light
showers In - portions of Oregon an-1
Washington, and in the ' mountains i lu
Utah. '; 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

B. 8. Cutler, director of the bureau of

gard to coffee prices, which subject had

Investigation of the coffee situation
would be entirely uaelees. The factors
entering into Jt are well, understood, and
are mainly outside of American eontroL
The 'prices in this country, say Cutler,
generally follow the exchanges art Santos
and Rio de Janeiro.
During the war cargo space for coffee
was difficult to secure, and the price was
low. After" the war came a period of
speculation, and In 1918 a severe frost in
the Sao Paulo district, where coffee is
produced in the largest auantity. killed
nearly one 'half the trees, cutting the
crops of 191$ and 1920. .
Considering the wide inflation of cred
its and high costs. Cutler says, it may be
expected that coffee will remain at un
usual figures for some time to come.

GROWERS URGED TO
AFFILIATE WITH IIB7
STATE OR6AHIZAT10;i
Douglas Fruitmen ' Meet 5 With
Members of Oregon Growers'
Cooperative Association.
' Jtoseburg. July 11. At the meeting of
the fruit men of Douglas county with
the members oj the Oregon Growers'
Cooperative, association Thursday the
following members of the new organisa
tion told the local growers of its pur
poses : Isaao D. Hunt. Portland ; Pro
fessor C." L Lewis- of the Oregon Agri
cultural college. Corvallls; Robert C.
Paulus, Salem ; Aaron Sapiro. San Fran
cisco; A. A. Goldsmith, assistant to At
torney Sapiro ; Earl -Pearcy, Salem, and
J. F. Langner, Portland.
The meeting was presided over by R.
A. Busenbark. head of the Umpqua
Growers' association. Professor Lewis
said that within the next two years
1000 cars of apples would be shipped
from the Willamette and adjacent val
leys. At the present time there is not a
cold storage plant in the whole district
capable of handling one third of that
amount of fruit, he said, and individual
growers cannot construct these plants.
Mr. Holt of Eugene, speaking on the
prune situation, said the new organlxa
tion would not necessarily drive the pri
vate corporations handling prunes out of
business, but that it would have the
tendency to make them pay the market
price instead of a speculative one. lie
cited an instance where one Oregon
packing plant purchased' 10,000,000
pounds of Oregon prunes and 4,000,000
California prunes, and the whole output
waa marketed as California prunes.
Robert C Paulus refuted rumors rela
tive to the price the Salem growers are
to receive ; for their prune yield this
year, saying that the Salem growers are
to be paid IT cents a pound for their
crops, from $ cents to 4 cents more than
the unorganised growers in other sec
tions will geL
Isaac-Hunt, president of the Oregon
Growers' organisation, and a Portland
banker, said that the banks were lining
up behind the Oregon association,
A move to affiliate with the state
association will be taken at a meeting In
the near future.
