lETAHJS!- WtOP-KHPORTS
By WeU'Khown Faracrt Itoffl 'Hrheat Growing
Counties and Districts In Oregon
and Washington.
Wpontinue returns tins .week fiom two
hundred circular .letters sent "out through the
wheat - growing districts, ,chTefiy,bf Oregon
and Washington. The answers come1 ill shape
of replies to printed questions, and we sum
each up briefly, using the language of the
writer, so far as possible, but ahreviating so
as to bo able to afford space for the whole in a
single issue, as what wo receive for another
week will be published, and the matter of this
week's will also be included, in the issue
of next week.
The questions asked were:
How does acreage of wheat (lmth Kail and
Spring) compare, with the acreage of 18S0 in
your vicinity? What will be the yield of each
-(Fall aud Spring wheat) in your vicinity,
and how does it compare with last yeai?
How will quality of wheat compare with
last year?
' Please give some facts relative to the oat
crop?
Please add any'facts.of interest to.other
crops or fanning matters?
The reader must bear in mind that state
ments made all refer to a comparison of the
present crop with the yield and acreage and
quality of grain nnd other products in 18S0, at
which time we had a remarkably good yield,
and the quality of grain was also very fine in
this region, but yield and quality were poor
in 1880 East of the mountains.
Also, icniember that each writer givts his
opinion of the crop prospect only, and while
an experienced farmer can judge closely, it is
only justice to our correspondents to say that
we often give their opinions without qualifier
tion, preferring to make this general qualifica
tion as a preface to the published reports.
Necessity of brevity on our part induces con
densation of reports in closest possible space.
Answers dated from Salem come from a
"wide region, some from the red hills South,
from Salem prairie, from Waldo hilU, etc. ;
the same is true of Eugene, Albany, 'Junction
and all other places, so far as we are able, to
distribute them, but another year we shall
try to secure representation much' more per
fectly than now, or as perfectly "asit can e
none. -3 "i

One-half more oaU'.were aown.thU.yeaav-an'd

bushels, one-fourth more than in '80. llye
crops are .better, though sown ou oOr driest
land for hay mostly barley is but little raised;
potatoes will r be Q I better, if the, crickets
let them' alone; vegetables generally, look well
when there are uo crickets. -There are a good
many crickets this year. This part of Wasco
county is not a fam-ing eomitiy, and has no
large bodies of land tic tor farming. The
farming land is along the streams and is nar
row. This is a stock country, uid there is not
grain enough nusrd to supply more than
three fourths the home consumption, as many
do nothing but tend stock and buy all their
breadstutis.
J. 11. Magill, Tygh Valley, Oregon Ten per
cent, more spring wheat than 'bO.and will turn
off 15 to IS bushels while fall wheat will go 15
bushels, all cood quality, considerably im
proved on 1880; oats will make .'10 bushels per
acre; :e nave some rye ami uariey, uoiujicni

summer-tallowed; rather dry here so that
straw u short, hut heads aie good; harvest has
coiuuici.eed. We irrigate girilcns, aud, I
think, cm compete witu tne best.
A. J. Dtffur, Jr., Dnfur, Og'n One-fourth
more area of fall wheat, which will yield 'JO to
25 bushels, and compares favorably with last
crop; one-half more spring wheat will yield
15 to 20 bushels; all wheat much finer qual
ity. Oats w ill go 30 to 40 bushels to the acre,
where last year they made a poor crop. All
other farm products made an advance on the
yield in 1880.
Orley Hull, Walla Walla One-fourth less
fall wheat, which yields about 35 bushels,
agair.at 40 in tin's vicinity iu 1SS0; one-fourth
more spring wheat, which will average 20 bush
els, against 25 last year; quality better than
for 3 year, previous; oat crop better than last
one by 10 h'uhels to the acre, will average 45
bushels; barley is good quality and will make
15 bushels increase, say 40 bushels; fruit crop
large iu all varieties. Ou iug to rains the last
of June, the grain filled better than was antic
ipated at tune I saw you at State Fair.
(Mr. Hull lives near the lilue mountains,
where crops were better last year than usual
arouud Walla Walla.)
Ir P. Smith, Colfax, W. T. About one

Yakima Record: The present season has
liein unusually back-waid for vegetables and
froi'n. But on Tuol.iy last one nf cmr
friends from Lower Yakima. Mr. .A. Lnchapelle
agreeably surprised us by walking in and
laying iipjn.our uiblu some lii.u samples ol
giceu corn." 'The cars el-c filled. This coin
was raised on taint which lias necn consincreii
hitherto worthless, and without irrigation.
If our people keen on tcstinc the capabilities
of the dilleient kind of soils in this country,
at thu late they are doini; now, it will bo but
a. short timo beforo thov demonstrate that we
In not possess any but what is valuable for all
purposes.
Weston Leader: 1'ioni Gieasewood comes
the most encouraging reports of good crops.
Karly in the season, during the long continued
dry weather, fears were entcrtdued that the
giani would be lathor short; lint these doulits
aru happily dispelled, and the yield promises
to be more than aciage.
l'aities having tho Ninth I'oik of Cold
.Spring iufoi in us that the tii.iU nude iu the
production of alfalfa aie cntiiely satisfactory,
that tho soil and climate seem pcuuh.uly
adapted for its most luxuiiaut giowth. With
tne (lisappcuance oi tne vase streienes oi
bunch grass upon which our herds formerly
roamed at will, tne introduction of alfalfa in, u
substitute for pasturasfo is most oppoituue.
A specimen of timothy from tho farm
of McDaniels and O'Uiicn measures six
feet in length, w hi.'e some of thu heads are
one foot long. It is simply supeib. A sam
ple of wheat from farm iica s Derrick's for
being plump and tilled.
Mr. J. W. Kirkhuid has 240 acres of fall
wheat and 80 acres of spring wheat which
connoiseura pronounce will average nearly
fifty bushels to the aero. The spring wheat
is the better of the two. Huriah for Umatilla
T. II. La Dow, Cedar Creek. W. T. Theie
is larger acreage of wheat; fall grain will
iiu kc 30 to 40 bushels; spring sown. 35 bush
els, whieh is some better, than 1880. The oat
crop, so far as I can hear, is good, and per
haps better than last year.
Richard S. Williams, Centerville Twice as
much fall w heat us last season, and will make
30 to 40 bushels per acre, while last year it
went only 12 to 15, on account of tho very
dry season. Not as much spring wheat, which
will make 25 bushels; quality will be better
than last year. Fanners think oats will turn
oil' 40 to 60 bushels per, acre, ot very good
quality. Barley will probably turn out well,
and good quality. Corn looks well for this
country. Plenty of vegetables of all kinds.
Theie is more fruit than for several years and
of splendid quality. A large crop of potatoes.
Harvest and threshing has commenced, and
farmers are b ith busy and happy. We have
hud pleasant weather ever since the 1st of
March. I think Eastern Oregon is the poor
man's home.
H. V. Grubbe, Palouse City Not much
fall wheat sown, on account of early freeJug
of ground, but much gieater acreatce of spring
wheat, which makes about 25 bushels to the
acre, same as iu "80; quality fair. A great
many have sown oats iu the Palouse country,
in pieference to wheat iu expectation of get
ting a good price for them on the N, P. K. H.
work. I really think the great Palouse coun
try is destined to become the greatest cereal
pioduciug region on the Pacific coast, as thu
soil is very productive, but we have no u.ar
ketasyet. Production is varied; corn dors
well iu places; potatoes arc ve-iy prolific;
w hatcver belongs to the bulbous laniily is pro
duced iu large quantity.
John C. Luce, Canyon City Considerably
more wheat grown, of both fall and spring;
fall will turn off 35 bushels, an iucicive of 4 in
yield; spring, 2S bushels, an iuuirase of !,";
quality is better in cv cry instance; outcrop
will be 40 bushels to thu acre, increase of JO
bushels over 18S0; barley is our mam feed
crop, and is better than for live years, say 40
lmslit-14 per acie. li lanu was suiuuicr-iaiiow-rd
here, as in your section, it would bring 35
to 50 bushels of w heat, and 45 to IX) of oats
and barley; the hay crop is about an average;
all garden vegetables finer than usual; fruits
hurt so no by late frosts, but what there is is
of good size and quality, owing to frequent
rains. We depend much on irrigation lieie.
Joseph Dignain, Pataha City, W, T.
Double the amount of acres of fall sown
wheat, and will aerage 22 bushels; equal in
creased acreage of spring wheat, and will
make 20 bushels, which is 1-5 increase of
yield in fall and spring. The quality is i-xcel-lent.
Oats are a splendid crop; ten per cent,
increased acreage, and 25 per cent. Iietter
quality. I do not think there is a Iietter sec
tion of the Pacific coasf than this part of the
country, llarley will average at least 50 bush
els to the acre. As for fruit, there is but lit
tle matured, and it is mostly on creek bottoms
and the quality ery g'd. A great many
young orchards set out on the uplands are not
U-inng jet. Plenty of rain and gardens let
ter than usual.
Kast Oregonian: Jerry Ilespaiii has left
with "Uncle George Webb" a bunch of wheat
grown to all appearances from a single grain,
which we will pit against any other man's
bunch in the Mite of Oregou or lUewhuc.

Kaat Oiegonian: We notice our farmers
all wear smiles on their faces when they conic
inti town, in shaip i-ontrast with their lucu
brious e-ounteiiaiices this time list year. Tho
icason is that Umatilla county has never, pel
hap, in its history granted a more generous
reward to the faithlul worker of the soil than
she has this eason. An abundance of lain

A coi respondent of Union C.iuiit Recoid
writes: Hay haivest has commenced
in earnest ami the loafer finds no one now to
entertain him. The hay crop is very light
for this locality, the average uenig snout oue
aud a half tons per acie. Bean culture,
which is quite au industry in the Cave, bids
fair to pay immensely if Jack Frost decides
to nrolonz his coininc until the middle of
October. "Messrs. Jones & Ciavens have 30
arcs of Chili beans which ai o looking well, and

A. f. Ambrose, Youcalla Almost double
usual amount of fall wheat sown; will yield
all the May from 15 to 21 bushels, which is
increased yield, little niprc man nan as
much spring wheat as last yea', will yield
same as tall -wheat; quality is plumper than ill
1880. Oat crop is far ahead of last year, anil
as good as I ever saw. During last tew days,
siiiue say their grain is struck with rust, hut it
will not afiect fall wheat, though it may
spring. People, in general, think they will
quit farming and turn their attention more to
stock, which pays better than present prices
of wheat.
P. Peters, Roseburg I think more fall
wheat was sowed than last year, will make 20
bushels per acre and probably more; averages
with '80. Spring wheat, no increase of acre
age; will make 25 bushels, which is better
than 1880; quality gol. More cits sown aud
will average 40 bushels per acie, whieh ii 1-5
Iietter than last year. Hav crop 4 better than
'80; potatoes 100 per cent, betier; apples A a

Wm. Pernoll, Applegatc, Jackson county
Moie wheat acreage th in last year, but v iehl

inako 25 bushels, an improvement on hint
crop; spring wheat was all here cut for hay.
Oat are a good crop and will make 50 bushels

G. J. McCraw, Viola- More fall grain than
usual wes sown, and will make, 15 bushels per
acre: not quitu s go d .is last year, More
new laud each year increases acreage of
spring wheat, which will make about 1 ti f bu.,
ill increase over last ciop. Oats will be a good
crop, but less acres sown; will make about .'10
bushels to the acre. Peas are an excellent
crop here, both as a fci tilier aud forage crop,
and grown for hog feed. Red clover is a
splendid crop, better than in nuny parts of
the valley. Rye does well and makes perma'
uent pasture when properly managed. Timo
thy makes a fair erop, but does not yield so
much as elsewhere; potatoes are good, but
perhaps w ill not v ield so h ell as last yer.
Samuel Ramsden, Viola One-third more
fall wheat in aud will make 22 J to 30 bushels,
5 bush, increase over last crop; spring wheat,
J more in and will average 20 bushels, 4 bush,

heaviest in this valley I have ever seen; some
will go 50 bush., and I think 45 is a safe reck
oning ou some winter oats 1 harvested last
week for a friend. Potatoes look well; apples
and pears very few, but a heavy crop of
plums. Timothy hay light; clover a fair crop

Ja(.'Kmivillk, Or., July 1U, 1881.
The hat vest iu this section is fast being com
pleted and everything points to a profitable
season. The price paid for wheat in this
valley (the valley can consume about as much
as is raised) is fully, if nut over tho price paid
staiy Volutin the Willamette valley. The
yield p"roinises much and will undoubtedly
come up to tho expectation and will be over
that of any previous year, as an increased
acreage is noticeable. One who is used to
seeing nothing but grain raised in the Willam
ette valley, cannot help but look with admira
tion upon the ninny fields of cam, which is
constantly b ing met with. The corn crop is
a profitable one here, and is utilied by feed
ing to nogs, many of whom aie diiven out of
the valley into the milling camps further
South. The weithcr is warm here at present,
hut will not interfere with the growing crops
or those now being harvested.
Fruits and vegetables do well and are much
cailier than in the Willamette valley, Al
reaily potatoes, tomatoes, peaches, apples, etc.,
are beginning to ripen, and ipiito soon grapes
will reach this maiket. I notice quite a num
ber of extensive vineyuids around on the
neighboring hills, adjacent to the city, and am
informed that a largo yield will repay th-vinu-grovver.
There is much wine and binndy
made here; in fact this is the only way iu
which they are utilised. The native wines
made heio taste well nml hi n few yeais
Jackson county can expect I) he u famous
California, for her wines.
The one great need of tins section of Oiegou
is "oufidu connectinii with tho woild ' by
tailroid, and when this is accomplished
Soathein Oiegon, including the (oiinties of
Lake, Jackson, Doughs, Choi", Ouny and
.loephiiie, will lie filled up and their many
nttural resources and advantages brought
mote prominently Indole the world. The
milling interests of the alwe named counties
cannot Im overlooked, neither e.iii tluy be
ove- tiniatod. Iu some future issue ef the
Kaicuku I shall speik of the mining interest,
the stock interest, and si-i-eral othrr subjects.
The crops along the way from Portland
looked well, and in many places in tho Wil
lamette Valley fall grain was being harvested.
The same can be said also f the Yontalla and
the valley of the Umpqua. Hut little grain is
standing iu Jackson county.
Theie is much vacant land lietwecn Jack
