Oct. 11.—A very favor able harvesting season, beginning about two weeks earlier than usual, compensated somewhat for the great shortage of raiofall during the grow ing season of 1924. Some rain fell during harvest but there was no con tinued damp, cloudy weather, and these early showers were a benefit rather than an injury evan to such crops as prunes and hops. Yields per acre were generally better than pre-harvest indications. Perhaps the biggest surprise was the hop crop which right up to harvest looked like about 75 per cent of last year, with % the actual harvest now indicat- Ing an increase of 15 to 20 per cent over last year In the western part of the state there has been sufficient rainfall, be ginning about Sept. 22. to put the soil in fine working condition, and considerable tall seeding has been done. Eastern Oregon has had very little fall rain and fall seeding has been delayed. Some wheat was sown about October 1. and by October 15 seeding will be pretty general, even should the dry weather continue. The fall rains to date have been of very little benefit tothe Eastern Oregon ranges Sets Color» Permanently To set the color In any cotton ma terial, ndd a handful of salt end two tablespounfuls <>f turpentine to three- quarters of a pail of hot water.
