' WHITMAN COUNTY
/ LEADS THK STATE
In the Production of Wheat Lost
Season With a Yield of 8,803,<>00
Bushels
Whitman county not only pro
duced more wheat in 1920 than the
three next best counties in the state,
but. it also produced 37 Vi per cent
of the wheat raised in the state last
year, according to the anual report
of the state grain inspection depart
ment of wheat received in public
warehouses between .July 1 and No
vember 1, 1920.
Revised estimates by the govern
ment on the wheat production ot
Washington for 1920 give 37,802,
--000 bushels as against 39,305,000
for 1919. Measured merely in vol
ume, the difference is immaterial.
Measured in value, however, the de
cline is catastrophic. With practic
ally standardized prices in 1919, the
1 average farm value on December 1
of that year was estimated by the
| government at $2.14 a bushel and
I the crop was worth $84,183,000.
With the shrinkage in the grain mar
kets, the average farm price on De- 1
cember 1, .1920, was calculated at
$1.35, and the crop was worth $51,
--033,000. The price collapse has
stricken the whole realm of farm
production. Government estimates
on the Washington crop of grains,
potatoes and tame hay give a value
as of December 1 of $162,120,000
for the 1919 crop and $108,073,000
: for 1920. The loss In value of these
j items alone is over $"54,000,000 or
$150 per capita for every man,
woman and child in the principal ag
ricultural counties of the state, in
cluding the cities of Spokane, Walla
Walla and Yakima. Expressed in
another way, the process of defla
tion has cut off a third of the prices
fixed by 1919 standards.
The average money value of Wash
ington wheat value for the five
years. 1914-1918, is estimated at j
$50,284,000, and the 1920 crop was'
accordingly worth a trifle more than
this average. As, however, the crop i
was produced under the most exces
sive costs the state has ever known,
the decline in price is nothing less
-•than an economic tragedy that has
practically annihilated all profits
and has left thousands of farmers in j
debt as a result of their year's work.
"As the farmers are the dominant
factor in the buying power of the
nation, it is Inevitable that there
will be a decline in the price of com
modities that must be sold to the
farmers," says the February news
letter of the Spokane & Eastern
Trust company. "It is likewise 'cer
tain that labor will come down to a .
level that the farming industry can
! afford to pay. We believe that just
j as farmers were among the first to
profit by the inflation following the!
j world war, and they were among the
first to suffer from the price col
lapse of 1920, so they will be among
the first to emerge from the eco
nomic reconstruction now taking
place, In a relative sense, the farm
ing industry has Buffered its shock
and compared with the rest of the
country may fairly be considered as
, on the mend."
Examination of the accompanying
figures, furnished by L. D. Crowe,
chief of the grain Inspection depart
ment, show that Whitman county, as
usual, leads the state with wheat re
ceipts of 8,893,000, in addition to
the amount, retained on farms for
feed and seed and stored in private
warehouses. In 1915 its figure was
11,022,000. Walla Walla was not
only absolutely but relatively in good
shape with a showing of 3,479,000
bushels as against 4,434,000 in 1915.
Adams county shows 2,427,000, or
about the same as 1919, but less
than half the 1915 peak. Grant
county only turned out one-sixth of
its 1915 record and Douglas county
did little better. As said before, the
reports of grain received in 1920 are
not a truly reliable guide in com
parison with former years, because
of delayed deliveries by farmers, but
they give some idea of how the vari
ous districts compare with their best
previous performance.
Pomeroy, in Garfield county, is
; the most important initial grain cen
ter of the state for 1920, with the
receipts of 836,556 bushels. Mocko
nema, three miles west of Colfax, is
second and leads Whitman county
with 427.552 bushels, and Prescott is
the ranking station in Walla Walla
j county and third in the state, with
1,883 bushels.
While Mockonema leads all other
shipping stations in Whitman county
In the amount of wheat received up
to November 1, with 427,552 bushels,
according to the report of the grain
inspection department of the state,
LaCrosse is second with 378,837
bushels. Palouse is third with 346*
668 bushels, Endlcott is fourth with
303.039 bushels, and Uniontown is
fifth with 288,318.
