TAGS ccixt The OEIGOXl STATESMAN. Salenv Oregon. Saturday Morning. June 21, 1141 Oregon Hop Mart Firm ' Demand Active for Remaining 1940 Crop Supply ; . Oregon hop markets were firm during the past week, according to the weekly report of the de fpartment of agriculturre. - An ac live demand was expressed from dealers for The small remaining Supplies of 1940 hops in growers' hands, but no sales were reported Cue to an almost entire lack of Offerings. Offers by dealers for this growth were reported as ranging irom 26c to 28 lie per pound to growers, according to quality and size of lots. There were no new con tracts covering 1941 hops re ported written in Oregon dur ing the period, since. both deal ers and growers were reluct ant to enter into commitments at this time because of the un certainty as to outturns. -In the absence of actual trans ' actions, nominal values were placed at around 27c per .pound for reguar seeded types and about 40c per pound for seedless hops from the 1941 crop. Now crop prospects in Oregon are reported . as most irregular. Trade reports Indicate that -definite damage has resulted already from the severe infestation of downy mildew in this state. However, it is not yet possible to estimate accurately the pamage. Some yards are heavily infested, while the infestation is lighter in others. Infestation is spotted within the same yards. It is generally believed that the ex tent of damage can not be esti mated until hot, dry weather is received. Growers are still en deavoring to combat the mildew with approved spraying and dust ing methods. Washington markets also were firm. In the Yakima valley, sale of around 123 bales of prime quality 1940 hops was reported at 25c per pound net growers. Bidding was reported ; active for the few remaining spot hops in growers' hands. Only one carlot sized lot is left and only 300 bales in all remaining in that area, from the 1940 crop. All , older crops with the exception of one or two small lots of 1937 hops i have been sold. No further acuV ity Jn new crop contracts report eL Warm, dry weather last week checked the spread of mildew but further rains this week may in crease ?the spread progress in fpite of unfavorable weather. No sales, or offers reported in the Puyallup valley area. The new crop is showing good growth there although . considerable rain has been received. Downy mildew is reported rather serious in the cluster yards and some is show ing in the fuggles. California hop markets re mained quite firm during the past week with light offerings from growers and fairly active demand from dealers and -industries.
