ijt-ii ';:!' 1 Ly the June raiaa. An
.niiioiemi'iit of 5 p-r cent in condi
tion Is reported, which indicates a
total production of probably 13,200,
ooo Lu-I.fl-. A considerable acreage
of oats is always cut for hay, and
this hay harvest is now (July 10J
well under way in western Oregon. I
Some improvement took place in
the U. S. crop, which is now estimat-J
ed at 1,322,065,000 bushels.
Corn: Each year there is planted
in the state an increased acreage of
corn most of which is used for silo
filling. The increase this year over
last is reported as 3 per cent. Ex
cept tor the past few days, tempera
tures have not been favorable for
corn, and the stand is thin in many
fields.
The U. S. corn crop is estimated
at 2,778,903,000 bushels, which is
about 37,000,000 bushels less than
the estimate a year ago.
Potatoes: The Oregon potato
acreage appears to be about 96 per
cent of the 1919 acreage. The condi
tion of the crop is reported as 98 per
cent of normal, which ehould make
up for the deficiency in acreage thus
making the state's crop about the
same as a year ago. A similar con
dition applies to the U. S. estimates.
The total acreage appears to be about
96 per cent of last year, but condi
tion of the crop is such that an in
crease of about 30,000,000 bushels
over the final 1919 estimates is indi
cated. Fruit crop prospects are for the
most part greatly under production
of a year ago. Apples will probably
be about 65 per cent of a year ago,
the commercial crop of the state be
ing estimated at about 60 per cent
of last year. Pears are also light
this year, apparently not more than
60 or 65 per cent el a year ago.
Cherries are almost a failure in some
commecial districts, and will proba
bly be less than 50 per cent of the
1919 production. Prunes promise a
crop not far frqm the production of
a year ago.

FAIR TREATMENT COMBINED WITH BEST PRINTING AT THE G.-T. OFFICE
An improved condition since June
1 of all Oregon crops except fruit
is a feature of the July crop report
just issued by F. L. Kent, Field
Agent, IT. S. Bureau of Crop Estim
ates. This generally improved condi
tion is due largely to favorable June
weather. A precipitation of close to
three inches fell over Western Ore

While temperatures (were below nor

conditions on the whole were very fa

dicating a state crop of about 15,-1
000,000 bushels. Harvest will be
about two weeks late this season, be
ginning on the lighter lands probably
about July 15. On the heavy lands
of the principal wheat counties there
are many fields where the stand is
thin and many weeds are present.
The thinner soils in southern Wasco,
Sherman and Gilliam counties have
the best crop in ninny years.
The U. S. crop nlso made Improve

or more. In the western part of the
state condition is generally reported
as being close to the 100 per cent

indicated to the extent of about 14,-j
