W a crae among the hop growers
to aeo how many ara 'hey can get I

vhl h hn thliika la a mlataken Idea . j
lie further atated that In the well
cultivated yarda the crop would he
fully up to the average.
According to Conrad Kreba, the
well known hop factor, many offers
are being made to aecure contracts
on the coming bop crop at 12Mic a
pound and It la unlikely that much
bualneaa could be aecured under 15c
at that figure.
According to Mr. Kreba the Inde
pendence aectlona will produce not
more than 60 Der cent of last year's
rron. Salem. Ilrooka. Gervala. St. .

rora 40 per cent and Sllverton dis

than 60,000 bales thla aeason. He
rives the maximum for New York 35,-
000 bales, California 75.000 bales and
Washington 20,000 bales. The total
for the United States 190,000 bales as
compared with the short crop of last
year at 205.000 bales. Brewers' re
quirements are 229,000 bales annually.
Death Comes a Relief
After a lingering Illness of over a
year death came to relieve the suf
fering of Richard Dawes, son of W.

peacefully at 9 o'clock Wednesday

rowing parent and family. He was
aged twelve years and eight months
on the night of his death. His res
idence in Independence saw little but
suffering, having come here about a
year ago with his parents and his
mother having preceded him to that
better land six months before.
Mr. Dawes has the heart-felt sym
pathy of the entire community in this
hour of his bereavement, more par
ticularly so because of this second
visit from Che dread reaper during
the past year.

the family residence on Monmouth
street at 10 o'clock this morning. In
terment will be in I. O.O. F. ceme
tery. Besides the father who is left
to mourn his demise, there are four
sisters and one brother.
