He says that the company he repre sents, while they formerly carried on large operations in California, will hereafter confine their trade more nearly exclusively to the Oregon mar kets, since the hops of the former state are so poor in quality and picked in such a slovenly manner that there is practically no comparison between them and the product of our own state. He adds that the hops raised around Dallas and Independence are second to none raised In any portion of the PnplftarViiiRf. In size and aualitv. Mr. Snlnnr trill tftlffi K M.

There is plenty of labor to pick the crop, on the theory that 150.000 bales were picked last year and there was talk of a shortage of labor then. There will be as many hops this year in Oregon if the crop is harvested. One thing that will cut the crop down is the difficulty renters are having in bor rowing picking money, as banks have shut down on all such case?, except the land owner will join in the notes and give an option to sell the crop as soon as It is in the bale. Unless land owners come to the relief of the renters, many rented hop yards will go without picking. Salem Journal. Hop baskets at Howe's.
