In Southern Oregon and In the Grand Ronde valley some of the defi ciency has been made up by cutting grain for hay. The second crop of al falfa is now being harvested in a few localities. Correspondents In Polk and Jackson counties report grasshoppers unusually numerous in the ' clover fields. . " : The grain harvest is Mow well' under way In all sections of the state and the yields are reported good as to quality. but below the average In quantity.;- Hops are very backward, . and the great amount of cloudiness during- the week has been an unfavorable factor In the advancement of this crop. Po tatoes and gardens continue thrifty and promising-. Corn needs more warmth and sunshine. . The blight previously reported as affecting field onions con tinues to spread slowly. . - . Prunes are beginning to color and early apples are ripe. A few corre spondents report Italian prunes as dropping badly and that the yields will be less than anticipated.
