L. Kent, Agricultural Statistician, shows the expected yield of our commercial crops in Oregon. In spite of some deterioration during July, due to hot weather, Oregon's grain crops are found to be larger than they were last year. The same is true of hay and potatoes, but tree fruits and grapes are somewhat less than in 1924 or about the same in prospective yield. The prune crop will be but a small fraction of a full yield, the hop crop is expected to be about the same as in 1924. The July-August estimates show 6,732,000 bushels of winter wheat compared to 13,035,000 harvested in 1924. Spring wheat shows 10.120,000 bushels compared to 99.99 pure, class A: trace ef rye, B.
