growth of corn and beans, which

Fall wheat is ripening nicely and
even that reported damaged bv

better than formerly expected. Iu
tho Willamette valley the wheat
crop is generally in good condition
and remarkably freo from insect
pests. There is some complaint of
its heading short and of the heads
being small, but these complaints
are not general. Iu Southern Ore

noteworthy extent by lice. The
cutting of clover hay is well advanced
and the first crop of alfalfa lias been
