We present a study of events with W bosons and hadronic jets
produced in p anti-p collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.8 TeV. The
data consist of 51400 W --> e nu decay candidates from 108 pb-1 of
integrated luminosity collected using the CDF detector at the Fermilab
Tevatron Collider. Cross sections and jet production properties have been
measured for W +/- \geq 1 to \geq 4 jet events. The data compare well to
predictions of leading-order QCD matrix element calculations with added
gluon radiation and simulated parton fragmentation.
