crop of 1914. Montana's crop beats
that of the country at large in in
crease, being 1863, 900 bushels of 68
per cent greater than the 1914 crop
and 10,252,000 or IS per cent greater
than the states previous record crop
of 1913.
The apple crop for the year is plac-
ed at 10000 0 bushels, as compared
with 100000 bushels for 1914. The
barley crop is estimated at 2,135,000
bushels, as compared with 100000
for 1914.
Both the oats and wheat crops are
the largest ever grown in the state,
due partly to the largely increased
acreage cultivated and partly to the
phenomenal yields, which in some
cases are the largest on record.
