erally. Around Milpitas some fields 

 have been injured by mildew to some 

 extent. Around Santa Clara the stand 

 is promising. At Sunnyvale and Eed- 

 wood City the conditions compare fa- 

 vorably with last year, although the 

 onion at Redwood is not filling so 

 heavily and there is a considerable 

 percentage of stalks falling down. 

 However, at the present time the pros- 

 pects are quite satisfactory. 



Carrot has the appearance of seed- 

 ing heavily, the fields around Santa 

 Clara showing up nicely, also the fields 

 at Sunnyvale. This, however, is a 

 treacherous crop and cannot be counted 

 on until the seed is actually in the bag. 



Lettuce is a rather poor crop gen- 

 erally. At Redwood City the fields 

 have been damaged greatly by dry rot 

 and cutworms, so that the stand is 

 spotted and the yields will only be 

 about half what they were last year. 

 A large acreage of lettuce is grown 

 on this ranch, so that this shortage 

 should, make some difference in de- 

 liveries this fall. 



Radish is a most uneven crop. Some 

 fields look good, while others will not 

 yield over 200 pounds per acre. 



These conditions can also be applied 

 to crops growing in the vicinity of 

 Coyote, although the carrot crop in 

 that section is light and the yields will 

 be small. Some of the growers are 

 irrigating their carrot fields, which will 

 help the seed to fill. 



At Gilroy the crops are only fair. 

 The onion does not show up so well as 

 the first crops visited. In many fields 

 the stand is thin and the stalks have 

 fallen down badly. The lettuce is poor 

 in some places and only fair in others. 

 Radish is a fair crop in this section. 

 Other crops, such as leek, parsnip and 

 celery, appeared promising. Sweet peas 

 were cut and on the sheets and the 

 crop appeared exceedingly light. 



Crops growing near HoUister in the 

 San Felipe section are spotted in the 

 extreme. All acreages of radish grow- 

 ing on the lighter soils, and the total
