WINTER WHEAT RUNS
TWO TO TEN BUSHELS
Spring Grains Show Slight Improve
ment in Some SectiOns-Farmers
Shipping Out Livestock.

Helena, July 23-Reports from sew
enteen counties touching on crop con-
ditions in different parts of Montana
for the week ending July 10, show the
hot and dry weather continued. Win
ter wheat and rye was being harvested
in number Of sections, the yield vary
ing from two to ten bushels per acre.
There has been no improvement in
the condition of spring grains. Grain
under irrigation is yielding twenty to
thirty bushels an acre. In several of
the counties the yield from spring
planted grain is better than was pre-
dicted two weeks ago. In several
sections where it was supposed farm
ers would be compelled or would ship
out their livestock, they have determ-
ined to hold them, shipping in feed
where necessary, and in number of
instances the expectation is that feed
enough will be raised to hold the ami
mails on the farms. The following
are the reports from the different
countless:
Richland-Hot and dry. Winter
wheat and rye being harvested. Esti-
mated yield three to ten bushels per
acre. Early seed Marquis and Mac
aroni estimated yield, Marquis three
to seven bushels, Macaroni, five to ten
bushels. Grain under irrigation esti-
mated twenty bushels or better per
acre. Large acreage millet seeded last
week. Early seed flax now germinat-
ed. Farmers hopeful Of raising feed
enough to hold their livestock.
Custer-All fall wheat cut and
stacked. Corn holding it's own. Stock
in fair condition.
Prairie-Winter wheat being har-
vested. Will produce two bushels to
the acre. Spring grain almost total
failure. Corn crop thirty per cent
good.
| Dawson-Week hot and dry. Prac-
tically no crops expected, except in
a few favored spots, where grain will
yield from two to five bushels to the
acre. Indications are that little stock
will be shipped out to pasture, but
farmers will ship in feed instead.
Observation-Disclosures hot and dry
Grain harvest in irrigated fields has
begun. Second cutting of alfalfa well

Held Wednesday Afternoon.

Mrs. William Leonard, wife of Will
liam Leonard, prominent farmer re-
siding on the north bench, passed
away Sunday morning. Mrs. Leon
ard had suffered more or less for the
past fourteen years from an afflic-
tion which later proved to be cancer,

been confined to her bed, so that when
the end came it was not unexpected.
The funeral was held from the Con-

husband survive her. The children
are Mrs. Deleo of Illinois, Mrs. Gross
cup, Martin Leonard, Mrs. Langen,

WORK FOR FARMERS ON
MILK RIVER PROJECT

The following letter has been re-
ceived by the Courier from the pro-
ject manager of the Milk river irri-
cation project and will no doubt prove
of interest to farmers seeking work:
Department of the Interior,
United States Reclamation Service,
Malta, Montana, July 21, 1919.
It is understood that it will be the
policy of the reclamation service to
push work in Montana and northern
Wyoming this fall with all the funds
that can be made available. This on
account of extensive unemployment of
dry land farmers and their teams in
the drouth areas.
On the Milk river project it is ex-
pected that some earth work will be
done by contract and that this work
will be advertised in small schedules
that may be handled by man with
his own labor and equipment or in
any event may be performed under
relatively small contracts by men hav-
ing limited number of teams and
outfit of equipment and who are gen.
orally classed as sub-contractors.
Two advertisements for contracts of
this character have already been is
sued to be opened July 26th, iivolv-
ing in the aggregate about $4,000 Gu
bic yards of excavation and divided
into five schedules. Additional adver-
tisements will be issued shortly. There
will also be considerable amount of
work on the Milk river project this
fall which it will not be practicable
to do by contract and for this work it
is desired to employ dry land farmers
by the day both with and without
teams. Present wages are 1888 per
day with an increase to 1894 per day
if the employee remains on the work
two weeks or more.
The sundry civil bill, carrying ap-
preparations for the reclamation SER
vice for the fiscal year of July /
1919, to June 30, 1920 has now been
approved by the president and this
bill carrys an appropriation for the
Milk river project, exclusive of. the
St. Mary storage unit, of S12S,OOO.

GLASGOW 0VERWHELMS
l<S!r WOLF POINT TEAM
LOCAL BOYS y FEAT SUPPOSEDLY INVINCIBLE
EVOLVES" By SCORE OF ELEVEN TO FOUR;
DIPPOLD TWIRLS EXCELLENT GAME,
TANNING FIFTEEN MEN.

Last Tuesday afternoon the local
boys proceeded to take the conceit
out of the Wolf Point aggregation and
the way they did the job was a eau
tion.
By virtue of their decisive victories
over the Plentywood and Poplar
teams, the "Wolves," as they term
themselves, believed that they were
invincible, and came to Glasgow con-
fident of adding another game to their
credit, but the jolt that they received
here will give them something to pom
der over for long time to come.
Dippold was on the mound for Glas-
gov and pitched an excellent game,
striking out fifteen of the opposing
batsmen and allowing only eight hits.
Rook, the emery ball artist, twirl-
ed for Wolf Point, and the local boys
batted him all over the lot. It was
indeed a sad day for Rook; he had
gained quite reputation for himself
by defeating both Plentywood and
Poplar and there had been consider
able talk of changing the name of the
town of Wolf Point to Rook, but from
reports received late Tuesday evening
we learn that the citizens of Wolf
Point decided not to make the change.
Wolf Point only scored in one in
ming, the fifth, when they acquired
four runs on two hits and three cost
ly errors. Glasgow scored twice in
the first inning. Rook hit the first
man up, walked two men and allowed
a hit. In the third Glasgow made an
other. Peters knocking the ball over
the fence for a home run; in the
fourth the local boys added another
run on one hit and errors, in the fifth
the first three men up hit safely and
two runs resulted; then to make sure
that the victory would be decisive
the boys proceeded to acquire two
runs in the seventh and three in the
eighth, making a neat little total of
eleven runs against four for the visit
ors.
Wolf Point is not satisfied with the
drubbing that they received here SO the
local boys are going to play them on
their grounds Sunday and demonstrate
to them beyond all doubt that we have
the best ball team.
A large number of local people have
signified their intention of going tc
Wolf Point Sunday and help cheer the
boys to victory.

SCOBEY COMMUNITY
AFTER A NEW COUNTY

A meeting attended by about forty
business men and farmer was held
at the city hall Monday evening, for
the purpose of arranging plans for
the calling of special election for the
voters of this section of Sheridan
county and the northeastern portion
of Valley county to determine wheth-
er or not the proposed county Of
Daniels should be created. Data was
submitted to the meeting showing
sufficient valuation and territory to
create county under the new Nc
Cone act as passed by the last ses-
sion of the state legislature. The
valuation will be approximately $5,-
100000 and the county, if created, will
consist of between forty and fifty
townships.
An organization was perfected to
prepare the necessary data and re-
port to the new large organization
August 10th. The working commit
tee to handle the original work will
be appointed within the present week
under the craftsmanship of Roger
Burke.
The people residing in the propos-
ed Daniels county are unanimous in
favor of local government in county
affairs for several reasons, the most
important of which is the heavy taxes
paid under the present system and the
small amount of money expended or
roads and bridges in return for the
large amount of taxes paid for that
very purpose. The farmers and bust
ness men seem to be of one minc
as to the proposition and are willing
to assist in taking the only possible
way open to them to secure more ant
better roads during the coming year
The special election will undoubted
ly called about the first of the veal
and the new county organized and op
Grating by the first of March.-Sco

40 GALLONS WATER SUPPOSED
WHISKY SOLD FOR $1,000

Missoula, July 19.-Sixteen hundred
dollars was the price paid for 40
gallon barrel Of water within the last
few days and another would-be pur-
chaser of whisky is sadder and wiser
man, according to a story being told
in Missoula. The buyer of the barrel
is resident Of small town nearby.
He contracted for the purchase of a
barrel Of whisky at price of $40 per
gallon. Delivery was made according
to schedule, but the buyer was some-
what suspicious and, bearing in mind
the outcome of similar transactions
recently, insisted that he be allowed
to test the contents. The seller agreed
to the proposition and, producing a
small auger, asked the buyer to des-
ignate where he desired the barrel
tapped to try the liquor.
A spot was pointed out, hole bor-
ed and glass of the finest liquor
handed the buyer. Not satisfied with
the first test the barrel was tapped
in two other places and each time the
result was the same. Then the trans
action was completed, the money paid
over and the barrel delivered. Later
the owner tapped the barrel, but, not
possessing the right combination, only
water was produced and thorough
search of the contents disclosed no
trace Of whisky.
The genial bootlegger operated with
a rubber bulb containing supply of
liquor, which was held under the arm,
a rubber tube running down the coat
sleeve to the wrist. When the hole
was bored and the glass held under the
opening he pressed the bulb with his
arm and flow of the beverage which
cheers resulted.
