Richland counties are busy plowing,
discing, narrowing and seeding. Valley
county will have large acreage in
crop this year. In the Judith basin,
there is reported the normal acreage
of winter wheat with some little dis
turbing rumor regarding winter
killing; in the Winifred country, con-
siderably more winter wheat was sown
than in 1916, with about double the
spring crop; in the Roy country, the
same county, there was perhaps less
winter wheat sown, but about twice as
much spring crop. From the south
ern portion Of Musselshell and north
eastern Clearwater and northwestern
Yellowstone, there comes persistent
rumors of more or less wheat winter
killing. All over the state the ground
that the general loss from that mis-
fortune will be more than negligible.
Our field examiners have satisfied
themselves that the winter killing
losses have not been heavy, by actually
digging up wheat stands over fields
covering a considerable acreage in
Montana.
Alfalfa fields throughout the entire
state indicate good conditions; our ex-
aminers have made walking trips over
wide areas, and find no evidences of
heaving, or other forms of winter
killing. AL lover the state the ground
is full of moisture; frost is practically
all cut, and with few days of warm
weather, wheat and alfalfa should be-
gin to show up nicely.
Heavy snowfalls during the winter
portend big yields Of wheat; the state
obtained full value from the heavy
snow blanket as there have been no
intermittent thaws, followed by heavy
freezing periods to minimize the bene-
fit. Neither did we have heavy winds
as in the winter of 1856, which
blows off the snow and frosts the
wheat. The snowfall over Montana
averaged one-half greater than nor
NAL.
Livestock
Interesting figures are revealed in
the April report published at Wash
ington, as regards livestock conditions
in Montana. Taking per 1000 head as
a unit, the average exposure loss in
cattle in Montana, for the 10 year
period, 1906-16, was 81 head out OF
each 1000. The loss reported in Mon
tana for 1917 was so head. Concern
ing sheep, the losses from exposure in
Montana for the 10 year period, 1906
16, was Al; the loss in 1917, was n
head of sheep out of each 1000 head
On April l, the condition of cattle
was found to be 81 per cent of the
normal and 95 per cent of the 10 year
average--the condition of sheep, IS
per cent Of the normal and SO per cent
of the 10 year average. This is fine
comparative showing, and to the COM
pliment Of Montana herdsmen and
flockmasters-alsp worthy of COM
ment las it indicates better equip
ments, as well as hardy character
and quality of Montana livestock.

TO RAISE $4,000
FOR LIBRARIES IN
SOLDIER CAMPS
City Starts It's Share of Mil
lion Dollar Fund to be
Used For Troops

The drive for 100000 to bo raised
throughout tbs United States with
which to buy books for the soldiers
and sailors started to-day. The idea
originated with President Wilson and
has received the corporation of the
library officials and State officials
throughout the country. To do her
share Harrisburg must raise $4,000
for this fund, which ia known as the
Library War Service Fund.
Miss Alice Eaton. librarian OF the
Harrisburg Public Library, suggests
that in order that the quota set for
Harrisburg will be sure of being
reached, that all citizens of Harris
burg who can afford to do so, sub
scribe a dollar for themselves and
as many dollars more as they have
neighbors who cannot afford to sub
scribe. The very first real money re-
cetveds this morning was from a man
who sent in a dollar each for him
self, his wife, and one for each of
his three children. He is too modest
to give his name.
Miss Eaton has charge of the
campaign for the central part of
Pennsylvania and in each county of
her territory has appointed chair
men who in turn have appointed
AAASL III bilS bOl OdE vi tIlCil
counties to conduct the campaign.
The slogan for the campaign is "A
Dollar For Book For a Soldier"
One dollar will buy a good book
which will be placed within reach of
soldiers and sailors in the cantont
ments and training camps in Amer
lea as we'll as on the transport ships
and in France.
The clubs of Harrisburg have
pledged their support and the rep
resentatives of the various clubs who
are cooperating are: David E.
Tracy, Chamber of Commerce; A. E.
Buchanan, Rotary Club; Robert NJ.
Reeves, Y. NJ. c. A. Frank H. Gre

continue for a week and at the end
of that time it is hoped that the
