MOntanas junior exhibitors in the corn club classes did ex-
ceptionally well. In the white dent corn class for District One,
Montana won all five places in which awards were offered. Chalmer
Wiseman of Hillcrest, Custer county, won first place. In the junior
yellow dent class for District One, Herbert Zwisler of Park City
placed second.
The Montana Exhibit committee, which includes A. j. Ogard
of Montana State college, w. H. Jones of Columbus and c. Edison
Smith of Corvallis, reports that the Montana booth was the center
of attraction at the great exposition. Following the announcement
that a Montana farmer had won the worlds grain championship,
the visitors in the big pavilion sought the small sacked samples Of
Montana quality grain which had been prepared by the State De-
partment of Agriculture. Great interest also was shown in the de-
monstrations prepared by the Montana Grain laboratory and which
showed the superior baking qualities of flour made from Montana
grain.
The committee announces that Montana's great showing at the
International was made possible by generous contributions from
the Montana Seed Growers association. the Montana Development
association, Montana State Bankers association, Montana Life In
surance company, Montana Flour Mills, Anaconda Copper Mining
company, Billings Commercial club and Butte Chamber of Com
merce, and from the Northern Pacific, the Great Northern and the
Milwaukee railroads.
Mr.. Ogaard who has for years been the leading figure in Mon
tanas great show record and the improvement Of MOntana's crops,
was given one of the most outstanding recOgntions that is offered
in the field Of agrOnOmy on this continent when he was selected to
the presidency Of the IntarnahOnl Crop Improvement association.
