He bases his opinion on the fact that there is not a sufficient de mand for hops to Ju&tify an in crease in acreage-. v In fact, Mr Durbin is of the opinion that con ditions are so unfavorable that many growers will dig up their hops this coming season. "Hop gr&wers in the Willamette vullcv nroduced a crop at a profit this Beason," Mr. Durbin said, "but with many contracts expiring, the chances are the grower nexi year will face a loss on his crop. Snnnlv Exceeds Demand. English growers are also being urged to reduce their planting next vear and in many Instances to plow up their old fields, bo unsatisfactory is the future. More hops are being grown than the world needs," Mr. Durbin said. The Kentish Observer, publisheu at Canterbury, England, in thi center of the hop growing district under date of November 16, hai the following regarding the hop situation: "At a meeting of hop growers, the chairman said they had to dtecuss a very Berioust position In regard to the acreage of hops in England. Although the acreage was down to just two-thirds ol that existing in 1914, the brewerb society had notified the hop con troller that owing to the great re duction in the consumption oi beer, with its consequent low con sumption of hops, they would noi be able to take the whole ot the 1922 crop. High Beer Price Blamed. "The controller. addressing Kentish farmers, advised growers to grub their older and worn out plantations. Further, he advised them that the price of this year's irop would have to be placed an such a figure as to enable them to be sold to the greatest extent." After urging growers to reduce heir acreage, the controller said the hop situation would not tm j,.u.b until there was more con sumption of beer, and unless there was more beer consumed, there would be but a light demand for hops next year, on account of the Block unsold. And to bring about a greater consumption ot beer, the con troller urged that the duty on beer be reduced. The controller added: "No one wants to see beer con sumed to excess, but it certainb should not be put at so excessitt a price as at present. : Stay ton Brief s The community sing held in tht hih BPlinnl auditorium Wednes day night was well attended and all present had an eujoyaoit Mventng.
