DESPITE DRY WEATHER
WHEAT YIELD IS GOOD

While the Flathead has ex-
perienced an unusual drouth for
the past eight weeks, just at the
maturing season for grain, still
the yield of wheat, so far as
threshing has progressed, is very
satisfactory to the farmers. Win
ter grain is running from ten
to thirty bushels per acre, ac-
cording to locality and conditions,
while little if any spring grain
has been threshed.
One of the best fields so far
reported is that of Fred Rouil-
lier, four miles northeast of Ro-
nan. Mr.. Roullier finished
threshing this week and from
one piece of 70 acres an average
of a little better than 80 bushels
was received. Another 70.acre
field averaged 26 IL bushels,
making a general average for the
147 acres of q IL bushels.
Twenty acres of the field was
disked in, which reduced the
general average.
Mr.. Rouillier says at least $50
bushels remained on the ground,
while more than so bushels went
over the sleeves. The latter he
picked up and will use for chicken
and hog feed, not because of
quality but on account of the
work in cleaning. This 200
bushels would materially increase
the average yield per acre and is
considered an excellent yield for
an unprecedented dry season.
There are many other fields that
will do as we'll and the returns
from the machines now threshing
throughout the valley tend to re-
move the depression prevalent
ten days or two weeks ago.
