RAIN CAME TOO LATE. Drought Cuts Down Crops Along the Columbia River. Reports received by the railroad companies from the tier of counties lying south of the Columbia river show that the wheaf yield there will be much shorter than last year's crop, due to the long drought during the spring months, says the Portland Or egonlan. Rain which has fallen In this district during the past few days came too late, It is said, to be of as sistance In saving the crop. Morrow county, always a large wheat growing district, reports that the dry weather and the warm winds have been disastrous to crops. Many fields are said to be hardly worth cut ting. It Is estimated the yield of grain will be about 45 per cent of the normal crop. Reports from Gilliam county show that spring wheat and barley have been damaged about 60 per cent, while loss to fall wheat is about 20 per cent. The crop situation there is unchanged. Crop prospects have slightly Im proved In Sherman county since the last report from that section on ac count of the light rains Sunday and Monday and cool north winds. A strip along the east side of the coun ty, however, about three miles wide, Is considered utterly destroyed. Much of the balance of the crop, particu larly In early sown grain, will make from 75 to 90 per cent of a normal yield. It is thought that on the whole the outlook Is good for 60 per cent of last year's crop throughout the coun ty. The electric storm the first of the week In Wasco county, accompanied by rain, has relieved the situation there sowewhat. From half a crop of spring grain to three-fourths of a crop of fall wheat is expected in Wasco. WYOMING WOOL SALES. Ilig Clips Sold at Low Prices This Season. The Evanston, Wyo , Times, says: "The Tim Kinney wool clip of 400, 000 pounds has been sold. Eastern wool buyers representing the B. Har ris Wool company of St. Louis were In Cokevllle last week and after a lively and long drawn out scramble tMs firm came out victorious over many competitors. The fleece Is considered the best in the west and goes down as the largest Individual clip in western Wyoming "Covey Bros., next In line with 800, 000 pounds, sold to the same firm. The price Is said to have been 14 cents. While a number of small clips throughout Utah, Idaho and western Wyoming remain unsold, the sale of these two big clips practically marks the closing of the wool season for 190S. There has been much rapid buying during the past two weeks. The Cody Stockgrower says of sales in that locality: an. uiair, tne wool King or Mon tana, sold his entire 190S clip, whlcli is said to be the largest Individual clip In the world, for 15 M cents to Silberman Bros, of Chicago last week, "As the wool will not be baled will fill 50 freight cars and the sum Mr. Balr will receive will be In the neighborhood of $155,000 for this year's product from his wooly backs "Rea Bros, sold a half million pounds to J. Guthrie, for Silberman Bros., at 15 cents, while A. H. Barth received 16 cents for 300.000 pounds and Ross & Runner topped the bunch with 200,000 pounds at 16 4 cents, Vegan Bros., received 16 cents for their clip of 250,000 pounds, Williams of Boston being the purchaser."
