“ A thousand a day” has been the
slogan o f the land settlement de­
partment o f the Portland and State
Chambers o f Commerce during the
past week. It takes that many let­
ters to answer the flood o f inquir­
ies coming to W. G. Ide who di­
rects thig wor kand who sends to
every prospective settler a personal
reply together with descriptive lit­
erature on Oregon’s farm lands.
That this expenditure o f effort is
justified no one can doubt w lo
reads the many spontaneous exper*-
•ions o f gratitude coming daiiy
from those satisfied settlers already
placed through the efforts o f this
department.
“ I feel it is a duty to acquaint
you with our doings,” writes a fo r­
mer resident o f the Canadian prar-
ies. “ It is almost two years since
we arrived in Portland and through
your fatherly interest in us we were
made so welcome. As you know,
we came with great enthusiasm and
ambitions. We still feel the same
Life on the praries was not all sun-
shin«— our hardships
were
too
great to bear at times— bu there we
have all the joys one could wish
for. I must admit these have been
the two happiest years in our mar­
ried life. The people as a whole
are so neighborly and congenial and
we have found a host o f friend.!.
“ We have not seen anything we
like any better than the Willamette
Valley where our ideal is a forty
acre farm with eight Jersey cows
500 white lekhorns and a few tur­
keys.”

FROM THE N O R TH W E ST’S
1925 wheat market has been olio of many suiqni., . m.
T o ilt f , both
winter and spring wheat, states the Senrs-Koebuck
Agrlrolnirnl
Foundation. Owing to unfavorable weather conditions last winter which
caused r large abandonment o f winter wheat acreage due to the winter killing
o f nearly ten million acres, or 22(4 per cent o f the area sown In wheat, the
total crop production In 1925 reached only flflP,36ft.flOO bushels as compared to
§02.027.000 bushels the year before. With the exception o f I91f. this Is the
heaviest abandonment o f wheat area on record. The final harvest averug -I
only 12.» bushels per arm. which la the lowest avernge since lOtU. Spring
wheat, which looked very promising at first, also lost heavily through Injury
from rust. The yield per acre wae cut down to 12.9 bushels, which is 0,1
bushels below the 1924 average
The carry-over o f wheat from 1924 was moderate. From 005 .nnn.noo to
(tfW1.000.non bushel* are required for domestic consumption. Exports up to the
end o f December were nearly 0O.nnn.nno bushels, and the remaining exportable
surplus Is smalt. Both winter and spring combined production totaled 191,•
262.000 bushels leas than In 1924. making It the smallest wheat crop since lO lf
In terme of production, and In proportion to population, the smallest wheat
crop «Inc# 1800 ,
Because o f a belief In a world shortage, wheat prices early In 1925 reached
a high le el, going up to *1.96. When it became erident that the apparent
world shortage had been exaggerated, the market declined rapidly and went
as low as |1.46 In April.
r
A ing to the corn survey o f the Senrs-Roehnck Agricultural Foundation. An
Increased production of 587,830,000 bushels brings the 1925 figure to 2.900,581,
000 bushels. This, plus the carry-over of 1924, makes the general marketable
1925 corn crop o f 2.0111,#81,000 bushel* the largest In five years. While the
corn crop was nearly a failure In the Southwest nnd the overage yield was
low In almost the entire cotton belt, the corn belt Itself. In practically nil sec­
tions north o f the Ohio and Potomac rivers, produced an excellent crop o f tin«-
quality.
The large excess production, however, and the fact that there Is fewer
lire stock on the farms and some curtailment In feeding operations, h n v o made
corn plentiful and low In price. Prices dropped steadily from the Cop price In
January of *1.32 to 82 cents In November In Chicago. Receipt» fluctuated vio­
lently with an up-tum grade beginning In October.
The United States Is the corn nation o f the world, producing 70 per rent
of the entire crop. New uses for corn promise to Increase consumption of
thin grnln appreciably, Particularly significant Is the manufacture of con,
sugar, which la Increasing in cmumerclst Importance.
