MONTANA'S WHEAT
CROP IS PROBABLY
LARGEST TO DATE.
OTHER CROPS, EXCEPT CORN,
SHOW YIELDS IN EXCESS
OF EXPECTATIONS
Crop condition on Sept. 4, according
to Federal Statistician, will Ex-
coed 90, 200, 900 Bushels of Wheat
Tonnage Greater than Last Fall.

Little change took place in the
Montana crop prospects during the
month of August. Crop condi-
tons at harvest time and on Sept.
j indicate a total wheat crop of
over 53,OOO,OOO bushels this
year, while other crops except
corn give a promise of somewhat
exceeding the forecasts Of Aug. 1,
according to the crop report just
issued by George A. Scott, federal
statistician for the Montana Coop
erative Crop Reporting Service.
Now that the bulk of wheat, oats
and hay crops have been harvested,
and the outcome of the other crops
can be fairly we'll told, it becomes
apparent that the farmers of the
will harvest a considerably
greater total crop tonnage than last
year. More important than this,
these crops promise to return to the
growers more total cash than any of
the past three years.
Alternately hot and cool periods
prevailed in August and light frosts
were had in most of the counties, but
little injury to crops vas done up to

as local rains or showers, and not all
sections received these, and they

crops. Farmers were very busy in

The entire studio at Fort Lee was
employed, for this set, several stages

purpose. 1t Is a replica of the Great
Hall at Staversham Castle which
was located near Oxford, England,
which castle was destroyed during
tho conflict between Cromwell's
Roundheads and the Cavaliers who
supported Charles 7. The destruc-
ton of the castle is shown in the
climax of 1.-THE Fighting Blade" for
the picture Is based on the most
thrilling episodes of that dramatic
conflict.
An idea of the size of this setting
may be cleaned from the fact that
more than 500 extras sat at the
tables for the banquet in honor of
Staversham's betrothal to Thomsine.

in showing the ceiling of this man.

II. Sxacomber-F0rmal Protests
Entered by State and National

Discussed Pro ind Con

The necessity for increased reve-
nue in order that the Augusta Wa
ter District may extend its service
In the city of Augusta was strongly
emphasized by Hon. George Il. Ma
comber, treasurer of the district, at
the hearing held before the Public
Utilities Commission. Wednesday
morning. on the proposed advances
and changes in the water rates. The
matter was discussed pro and con,
following which the, hearing was
continued to 10 A. M. Thursday,
Jan. "a.
Protest against the Increased
rates proposed was made by the
state through Attorney General
Ransford w. Shaw and Col. Keith
Ryan. governor of the National SOL
diers' Home. appeared in behalf Of
the board OF managers of the East
ern branch Of the National Soldiers
Homes. who had filed n written pro-
test against any increase.
The case Of the petitioners was
presented by Mr.. Macomber. who
stated that the principal changes in
rates asked for are as follows: First
faucet. increase from 81 to s.: hand
hose. increase from So to So: lawn
lEOIIl PO u %lUI
and 10 per cent. increase on all me-
ter rates. Mr.. Macomber spoke of
the history and growth OF the Au-
gusta Water District dating back to
1904 and OF the Augusta Water
Company from 1856 when it was es-
tablished until 1904. when it was
taken over by the district.
At the time the change was made
from the water company to the
district, the company's rates were
adopted and were continued until
1900. the charge being IS for each
outlet on the fiat rate plan. In 1909
IL was found that the income was
larger than was needed to pay the
running expenses and the interest
on the bonds. so the district de-
creased the rates from IS to 81 per
outlet. That system OF rates was
continued for four years.
Mr.. Macomber stated that the
district found that q number of the
takers were using an unusually
large amount Of water. and in 1918
It was decided to put all water taxi
ers on Water and Cony streets in
Augusta on the meter basis. As the
