Second Largest Crop
of Montana Wheat Is
lmperiled by Strike
Because of Gripping of Carriers
of Country.

Helena, July 21.-(By The As
sociated Press. D-Montana's 5 wheat
harvest, the second largest in the
history of the state. may be i'm
periled by the railroad shopmen's
strike, according TO G. G. Davis,
commissioner of agriculture, who
Friday issued n warning urging
growers to provide for home stor-
age of their crop if it prove neces-
sary.
"A critical situation is in pros
pect unless grain growers who
have n considerable volume to mar
ket this fall arrange now for stor-
age on their farms said Commits
sioner Davis.
Indications are that the second
largest crop in Montana's $ history
will be threshed In 1915 elevator
storage was inadequate and rail
roads did not move cars out of
Montana fast enough to prevent
congestion, inability of elevators to
receive wheat and consequent loss

to farmers.
This year We have additional
complications. Farm labor will be
scarce. Railroad service is being
cut because of the shopmens strike
and even if railroad labor difficult
ties were adjusted today the effect
already felt on the motive equip
ment of the railroads could scarce
ly fail to handicap the roads in
moving out the wheat harvest.
Everything should be done that
can be done TO provide cheap farm
storage for use in case of emer-
gency. approximately 1850 cubic
feet of storage space is required
for each thousand bushels of wheat.
This precaution must be taken
soon, since the harvest has started
in the state If a large proportion
of farmers neglect home storage,
planning to deliver direct from the
threshing machine to the elevators,
there is danger that Il serious con-
dition may speedily arise"
