The current week finds them scurrying over the countryside on unofficial inspections of quality and grades. Oregon Crop Light Oregon, the largest producer of the three coast states, will show a con siderable reduction in production for this season, while Washington will produce slightly more than last year, and the California yield will run close to that of 1933. Dealers declare, how ever, that the decrease In production will be more than offset by a very material Increase In quality. West coast hops travel far to the brewing centers of the world. They are muoh favored In continental Eur ope, and England buys In great quan tities. Many thousands of bales, of course, are used by domestlo brew masters. Pound Per Barrel Competent observers estimate the Oregon crop this year at 90,000 bales compared with 108,000 bales last year. A bale weighs about 190 pounds. Few breweries use more than one pound of hops to a barrel of beer. In Washington production Is esti mated at 60,000 bales compared with 43,000 last year, while In California this year's total yield will be around 62,700 bales compared with 64,000 a year ago. Growers estimate It costs about $20 a bale to harvest, dry and bale the crop. This would bring something like 11,800,000 to Oregon for such labor; 1. 100,000 to California, and about 81,000.000 to the state of Wash ington. Picking Pay Boosted Pickers this year received between $1.25 and 81.50 a hundred pounds for working In the yards, compared with an extreme top of $1 and an average of between 80 and 90 cents a hundred In 1933.
