BIO EOF YIELD PREDICTED.
this
the
and
Grower Say Oregon Crop Will Equal
1813 and Be of Better Quality.
That the hop yield in Oregon
yir will equal that of 1013 is
prediction of numerous dealers
growers in Marion and Polk counties,
The growth of the vines was retarded
early in the season by the cool weatb
er, but with the warm weather
plant made a Temarkable advance
and are now as thrifty as could
expected. Hal Bolam, a conservative
dealer, thinks the yield in the state
will be about 154,000 bales, the same
ai last year. He also declares that
if nothing unexpected occurs
anility will be superior. Others say
from present indications the yield w
be larger and the quality better than
in 1813.
Suit Is Instituted.
Mrs. Waltman started her damage
nit of $5,100 against the city this
week, service being made upon Mayoi
Eldridge. This indicates that it
wasn't a "bluff" as most peopl
thought. It is needless to say that
the eity will light the case from
to Z. More people are more con
eerned about the school question than
they are the damage suit. A dis
tension between city officials and the
superintendent of schools may prove
of demerit to the best interests of
the schools. Lack of harmony be
tween school board and . superinten
dent! is not a pleasant state of con
ditions. Monitor.
