MOUNTAINS POTATO YIELD OVER
100000 BUSHELS, SAYS REPORT

MOntana's corn and flax crops are
smaller than last year but larger than
the average for the last five years;
the potato crop is larger than in
1924, but under the average, and the
apple yield is less than both last
years total and the average prOduc-
ton, according to preliminary esti-
mates made public by Jay G. Dia-
mOnd, agricultural statistician for
the Montana Cooperative Crop Re
porting service, in the November r
report. Final estimates for all crops,
with farm values. will be made next
month.
General Summary
Field work was almost continuously
delayed during October by wet SHOWS
and rains. Potato and beet harvests
proceeded under great difficulties.
The former, by November 1, was gen.
orally completed except principally in
the Gallatin, some parts of Cascade,
ChOuteaU, POndera and Western Fer
gus counties. The sugar beet harvest
was a more difficult problem and a
large acreage in both the southern
and the northern districts was still
undug when the month opened. Sub
sequently progress has been greatly
improved and the bulk of the crop will
probably be secured. Damage by Sep
TENDER and October weather to other
crops unsecured, cannot yet be fully
measured. Uncut grain in some cases
will be a total loss. Damage to both
grade and yield in cases of some
shocked and stacked grain has been
reported in central Montana. Weather
since the first Of November has been
favorable for threshing operations
and considerable grain has been
threshed during the past week. Some
damage to Unthreshed beans in the
Yellowstone and to seed peas in the
Gallatin is reported. Winter wheat
seeding suffered a general setback
during October and acreage intentions
have in some cases been curtailed on
this account. On the other hand the
growing crop has made an excellent
stand.
Bushel Weights
Weight Of winter wheat $50 pounds;
last year sos and 1O-year average
59.7 pounds. Spring wheat $50
pounds; last year 59.5 and 10-year
average $50 pounds. Oats 800
pounds; last year 36.5 and 1O-year
average 36.1 pounds. Barley 400
pounds; last year 500 and 10-year
average 1876 pounds. The foregoing
are the average weights per measured
bushel and compare with the standard
weights of 60 pounds for wheat, 80
pounds for oats and 48 pounds for
barley. Weight Of Montana grain
usually averages high and was re-
duced somewhat this year by heat and
drought and in some cases by q
larger dockage content than usual.
Potato Crop
The potato crop is placed at 4,180,-
600 bushels, compared with ~3,256,00C
bushels last year and 100000 bush.

At the Marine Barracks last
Wednesday evening the United
States Marine Band Orchestra,
Captain William H. Santelmann,
conducting, gave this symphony
program most beautifully.
Herman r. Hoffman. musician
OF the band, was the soloist.
He gave brilliant performance
of this rarely lovely and most
exacting music, for not a strain
may be missed in this pure melo
dious music that requires the most
virtuoso technique and, If we'll
given, requires a delicacy of per.
ception and a poetic soul that truly
paints the lily" so deep is the
tradition with which this music
must be handled.
Mr.. Hoffman not only played
with technical perfection Of phrase
and information. but he inserted a
deep feeling into his music that
was filled with reverence and
poetry, Particularly lovely was
the second theme of the first
movement. 1t held glow in tone,
with command and fine articula,
ton of runs. His cadenza had Il
well balanced sense of freedom, the
trills most true and the arpeggioS
broad, with the same repose that
made one finale most significant in

final one with double stops and
trills, a virtuoso touch Of wizardry

GoRING THOMAS CANTATA
UNDER WENGERD IN MAY

Charles Wengerd, conductor of
the Washington Choral Society, an
nounces that a change has been
made in the work to be presented
at it's final concert this season on
May 10.
The original plan was to give the
opera aida" in concert form, but
1t was not known then that the
Washington Opera Company would
present that opera this season.
Therefore, to avoid duplication, the
Washington Choral Society will
give, instead, Arthour Goring
Thomas 1.-THE Swan and the Sky
lark" on May 10.
This colorful work, it is believed,
has never been given here. 1t pos
sesses much poetic charm and lyric
beauty. The words are from poems
by Hemans, Keats and Shelley.
The first presentation was in 1894
at the great Birmingham Festival
in >England, two years after the
composers death. Many leading
choral organizations have given it
in this country.
New members will be admitted
by the society this evening, at S,
at the Thomson School, Twelfth
and l. streets northwest.
