Hay, soybeans, dry peas, prunes, apricots and sugar beets are average or better. some crops like sorghums, flaxseed, buckwheat and cotton lag. If these trends hold, total output could be 27 percent above the 1923-33 average and six percent above last year's bumper year. Ideal July conditions aided this outlook.
