less than one-half of last year, when it 

 was 113,000 acres. The average grow- 

 ing condition of this crop is much below 

 normal and last year, in some cases fifty 

 per cent, and indicates a prospective 

 yield per acre about seventy per cent 

 of last year. On the basis of the re- 

 duced acreage reported and present crop 

 conditions, the total production should 

 be about one-third of last year and 

 about seventy per cent of 1919 and the 

 three preceding years. The chief causes 

 of the poor prospective yield are: Dam- 

 .igc by aphids in California, resulting 

 in n part of the crop being plowed un- 

 der; extreme heat and dry weather in 

 Washington, Montana and Wisconsin; 

 and frosts in Utah and some parts of 

 Idaho and Montana. 



The present acreage and growing con- 

 'lition of dwarf snap beans are the re- 

 sult of factors similar to those affecting 

 garden peas. Hot, dry weather has pre- 

 vaile<l in the Michigan and New York 

 growing districts. On the whole, how- 

 ever, the condition of this crop is some- 

 what better than that of garden peas, 

 ■while the acreage is reduced in about 

 the same proportion. With favorable 

 Weather the rest of the season, there is 

 still time for beans to produce a larger 

 yii'ld than conditions now indicate. 



The acreage of cucumlters and musk- 

 nii'lons for seed in the Arkansas river 

 valley seems to approximate that of 

 1920. There was some damage by hail 

 and floods, and replanrings were neces- 

 sary on a small part of the acreage. In 

 some cases there was insufficient water 

 for irrigation purposes until the ditches 

 damaged during the June floods were re- 

 paired. Compared with last year, the
