I I Morrow County Wheat at Head of the List. Better Than the I'al.UH and Hot Excelled for milling Pur. pose In Northwest. The big wheat crop of last year grown in Morrow county has been about all disposed of. It. V. Hiokok who has been one of the most active buyers iu the field has closed operations and has gone to California to return about the first of My. Mr. Hickok estimates that about 1,250,000 bushels of last year's wheat crop have already been sold and shipped out on the Heppuer branch of the O. P. & X. Only about 70,000 bushels yet for eala remains in the hands of the growers and this is mostly in email lots widely scattered over t'.e county. Last year's crop is estimated at 1,000,000 bushels which is probab ly very close to the actual amount grown. The acreage this year be less than last. In speakirjg of the future Mr. Ilickok is of the opinion that this county ought to average 1,250,000 bushels of wheat each year. One thing has been thoroughly demonstrated and that is the fact that Morrow county wheat is among the finest in quality grown iu the Northwest. Mr. Hickok who is an expert, thinks that our wheat is better than that grown in the Palouse country, and for milling purposes is not excelled in the Pacific North west. The berry is extremely hard and the flour from It is of extra quality. A California buyer states 'that the wheat received from here was very acceptable. Another order for 200 tons was recently received but this order could not be filled for the rpason that the wheat was cot here. k Conser Very Low.
