HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
TO JUDGE COLLEGE STOCK
Arrangements have been complet
ed for a two-day stock judging meet
for high school students of agricul
ture to be held at the college October
7 and 8. It is expected that 50 or
more boys, representing all or nearly
all of the 10 Smith-Hughes agricul
tural high schools in eastern Wash
ington will he present.
The purpose of the meet is to give
the boys from the high schools an
opportunity to try their skill in judg
ing upon the fine stock owned by
the college in preparation for the
interstate judging contest to be held
at the Western Royal Stock Show in
Spokane late in October. At this
contest judging teams from the va
rious Washington high schools will
compete with similar teams from
Idaho, Montana and Oregon.
The idea of holding such an event
was suggested by Professor Hacke
dorn of the animal husbandry de
partment of the State College to the
Smith-Hughes agriculture teachers
of eastern Washington at their re
cent annual conference at Spokane
and met with hearty approval on the
part of all of the instructors present.
Mr. Wilson of the local high school
was appointed by the conference to
arrange with Professor Hackedorn
and Professor Woodward for the
date of the meet and to make other
necessary arrangements.

commerce will provide automobiles
to take the young lady students of
the college from the trains to their
places of residence at the opening of
the college A committee to have
charge of the work Will be named by
President J. N. Emerson this week.

PULLMANS HARVEST ~
HEARS ITS CLOSE
Eighty-five Thousand Bushels Sold
Saturday— End of Week Will See
Completion of Bulk of
Threshing
With favorable weather during the
remainder of this week fully 95 per
cent of Pullman's million bushel
wheat crop will he threshed and the
1921 harvest season will go on rec
ord as the earliest of completion in
the history of the Pullman district.
The biggest selling day of the sea
son to date was last Saturday, when
85,000 bushels were SOW by the
farmers at prices averaging 86 cents
for red wheat and 93 cents for white
wheat. The one day sales repre
sented approximately eight per cent
of the entire production. Local
grain men estimate that fully one
fifth of the crop has been sold, with
another one-fifth in the hands of the
Wheat Growers association, leaving
three-fifths, or about 800,000 bush
els, yet in the hands of the farmers.
The threshing season has been
marked by ideal weather conditions,
some machines in favored sections
having made their full run without a
layoff on account of rain, while none
have been forced to cease operations
for more than a day. Many machines
have been available and none of the
farmers have been forced to wait on
outfits. Wheat hauling also has pro
gressed rapidly and the warehouses
are bulging with grain.
Local main buyers are complain
ing that cars for shipping wheat are
not available and show little inclina
tion to load up without facilities for
transporting the wheat. The car
shortage, they claim, is much more
acute on the Northern Pacific than
on the 0.-W. R. & N.
Practically all of the fall wheat is
in the sack, with an actual acreage
of approximately 30 bushels to the
acre. The big majority of the
fields still unthreshed are spring
wheat, which, in most instances is
'returning a light yield, with an av
erage of a fraction under 20 bushels
to the acre. The total wheat crop
will lie in the neighborhood of
1,000,000 bushels in the immediate
Pullman territory, as against 1,250,
--000 last year.
One of the best actual yields in
the Pullman district was secured by
A. l-:. Olson, who threshed 10,000
bushels of red hybrid No. 1 _':! that
averaged 13 bushels to the acre. Mr.
Olson farms a large acreage four
miles southwest of Pullman. Jesse
Grant, in the Whelan district, se
cured a yield of 50 bushels of early
bart to the acre on a 20-acre tract.
An abnormally small acreage of
oats and barley was grown in this
district this year and the farmers
who have oats are holding for bet
ter prices.
DUMAS SELLS APPLE
COOP AT SI. BOX
Crop at Pomona Orchards Estimated
at $50,000 Boxes —Apple Harvest
to Start September 10
J. 1.. Dumas, owner of Pomona
orchards, near Dayton, has contract
ed the sale of his entire crop of ap
ples this year at $1.25 per box, f. o. b.
the orchard. The Dumas orchard is
one of the biggest and beat in the
Northwest and he estimates that his
crop this year will In- fully 50,000
boxes from the nearly 100 acres in
bearing trees. Pullman people who
visited the orchard this week state
that they were much surprised at the
magnitude of the enterprise and the
high degree of efficiency maintained
on the big apple tract. The mam
moth packing house is located in the
middle of the orchard, with the N. P.
tracks on one side and the 0.-W. R.
& X. on the other. Mr. Dumas has
let the contract for grading and
packing the entire crop to a man
who has just secured a patent on an
improved apple grading machine,
which, it is believed, will take care
of the crop as rapidly and with less
help, than the two machines which
have been used heretofore, as well as
occupying much less floor space.
While one carload of Qravenati
has already been shipped, the bulk
of the crop will not be ready for
picking and packing until September
10, when a small army of men and
women will be employed to prepare
the apples for shipment. /
Loren F. Dumas, a graduate of the
State College and son of the owner
of the orchard, is manager of the big
enterprise.
