this commonwealth is placed at A.
900, 900 bushels. This is 6,807.000 bush
els more than Montana yielded of
spring wheat in 1914, and in compari-
son Herewith represents an increase
of Al per cent.

ter wheat yield Of Montana ais likely
to be 16,2O0,000 bushels, which is

900 bushels Is prophesied by the bu-
reau, which brings the total probable
oats production of the state this year
up to 26,2OO,0O0 bushels and repre-
sents 21 per cent greater production
than in 1914.

Of 800, 900 bushels, or 1913 per cent OF
fax in the state. the estimated yield

Territory contiguous to Glasgow,
which shipped but 10000 bushels in
1914. has reasonable hope of consign-
ing 100000 bushels this season, the
increase being attributable to an esti-
mated 25 per cent increase in yield
end 40 per cent increase In acreage
of wheat.
About 100 per cent increase in corn

ed acreage in northeastern Montana.

New York, Aug. 16.-The Ameri.
can dollar RULED the financial world
today with an iron grip. Pound ster-

eign exchange went down to new
depths in a current of bills that pour
ed into the exchange markets from
the American manufacturers, seek
ing pay for the big war contracts of
munitions and other supplies purchas-
ed here by the warning nations Of

Coincident with the startling de-
cline in exchange rates, came the as
sertion from an unimpe

the American manufacturers for sup
plies sent abroad called for payment
in American dollars and not English
pounds sterling, which nave hereto
fore been the standard of finance the
world over. The immense losses due
