WEATHER CHANGES
CROPPROSPECTS
Weather conditions during recent
weeks have improved the prospects
for some crops, while others are
less promising, says a crop and
market report issued by the Oregon
State college extension service.
More winter wheat and corn, but
less spring wheat, oats, barley and
hay are expected.
Pastures and ranges are reported
in very poor condition over the
country generally. This is having
an effect on dairy production and
the condition of livestock. With a
short hay crop in prospect and per
h'aps no more than an average sup
ply of feed grains, dairy production
may not be as large as would other
wise result from the three percent
increase in milk cows in the coun
try. Figures gathered indicate that
about eight per cent more pigs may
be raised this year, the largest in
crease in prospect being in fall pigs
although there was an increase in
spring pigs. The western states, es
pecially the coast states, show the
greatest prospective increase in
percentage, but in actual numbers
the corn states are expected to in
crease the most.
"About an average output of late
potatoes now seems in prospect,"
says the report "The total crop is
expected to be 15 per cent larger
than last year, and somewhat above
average, but the increase over the
average is accounted for by early
potatoes already marketed.
"World production of "wheat
promises to be materially below the
large output last year and the world
carryover outside of this country
is not particularly burdensome.
However, the new wheat crop in
this country is expected to be as
large 'as last year and well above
the average, while stocks of old
wheat are unusually large.
Market quotations received at
the college showed that the top
cash quotations for clover seed at
Chicago have advanced three cents
a pound since June 1, "which may
be a reflection of the reduced acre
age of clover meadows in the main
seed producing states."
Sam Faster and Dr. Carl W. Em
mons passed through Heppner
Tuesday evening on their way to
Salem, Dr. Emmons' home. These
men are interested together in oil
properties in Wyoming. Mr. Fos
ter is known here for having made
the test of the Wells Springs gas
well.
