Among the changes noted in -the: (situation since the first olf July was damage to pastures and ranges, corn , and other late crops in extensive northeastern and western areas. On ' the other hand, conditions improved ! in much of the central and southern corn and cotton areas. Wheat prospects improved in July so that production is expected to be I [731.4 million bushels, 15 million 1 bushels above the July estimate, ac-| i i cording to the government estimates i i t of August 1. Corn prospects declin t ed to 2,460 million bushels, but im-j prevement in oats, barley and grain sorghums nearly offset the reduc tion in corn crop prospects. Hay production prospects improved slight ly. The potato estimate was cut nine million to 356.8 million bushels. Alsike clover seed production in the United States is estimated at 19.5 million pounds, 76 per cent of the 1938 output but above aver age. Winter field pea seed produc tion in Oregon is expected to be 120 to 25 per Cent greater than in '1938 when production amounted to 21.3 million pounds. Hairy vetch seed production in Oregon, esti mated at 8.5 to 9 million pounds, compares with 7.1 million pounds as the 1938 crop. Common vetch seed production in Oregon is expected to be somewhat above 1938, offset to some extent by a reduction in Hungarian vetch seed production. The production of common rye grass seed in Oregon is expected to be considerably above 1938. English rye grass seed production may be IF You Want to Sell Them TELL THEM!
