World’s top hops grower proud claim from Oregon fields
George A. Dorris harvested over 2100 pounds of hops on his Willamette valley ranch despite poor conditions.

Wheat Belt Prospects Boosted by Interior Soil Quality
Horace Walker, a West Oregonian reader, praises Gillam County soil as productive as Umatilla’s despite different composition. He notes heavy brownish soil with rock veins and many springs, sees potential for 30 to 40 bushels per acre with deep plowing and updated farming methods, and reports buying half a section near Condon.
