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.

Conser Very Low.

At the time of going to press
Mr. Coneer is gradually sinking
