George AIDES Father

Once when I was home on a visit,
and the publicity experts had been
usually active in manufacturing
yarns about my early career in the
jungle, father took me to the back
part of the bank and told me that he
wanted the newspaper men to stop
printing stories about him, especially
sucH as the one in which he was sup
posed to say, George. l wuz up in
Chicago last week and seen your
play and it, you're Just the same
as stealin' that-money!"
Father was the mainstay of the
local Christian Church and filled the
pulpit on occasions. He hadn't used
crossword for fifty years and his
grammar was Massachusettsian. OF
course, sympathized with him. But

what he said prove true, there

TempletOm Thinks
1926 Wheat Yield
Will Make Record

Continuation Of the present out
IOk should mean the biggest spring
wheat crop i'm MORtana's history,
in the opinion of @. j. TempletOn,
secretary Of the Northwestern
Grain Dealers association. Re-
ports reaching Mr.. TempletOn's of
flee indicate that wheat conditions
in the state r excellent.
Mr.. Templeton's estimate is that
the increase in spring wheat acreage
over 1925 will be from II to is per
cent this year. The winter wheat ac-
reage is not as large as last year, but
much heavier yields are expected,
Mr.. TempletOn said.
The grain dealers secretary be-
lieves that good prices for wheat will
continue several years. Weather is
the controlling factor in the wheat
market now, b ~easserted, and will
continue to be for a month.
An increase of II per cent in the
spring wheat acreage Over last year
would mean 100000 acres as COM
pared with the record of $685. 900
acres in 1919. Adding an estimated
100000 acres of winter wheat, the
1926 acreage would be 3,66O,OOO. In
1919, the year which had the largest
total wheat acreage Montana has yet
experienced, had 3,621,OOO acres of
wheat. A Is per cent increase in the
spring wheat area and 100000 acres
Of winter wheat would place this
years acreage at 3,72O,OOO.
