\ HOST Of Montana's wheat this year
MI is going to Duluth for export. &C
lvl cording to reports received In
Great Falls. This sitlation, 1t Is
said, coupled with the wheat reaching
Duluth from other states, may develop
into a congestion that may result In a
car shortage. The wheat is being de-
livered at Duluth faster than 1t can be
taken care of by the facilities there and
faster than it can be loaded into the
ships.
This means that cars are being held
at Duluth and cannot be promptly I'M
loaded and sent back into the wheat ter
ritory. How long this condition Will
prevail is not known. but railroad ON
cials are apprehensive. So far not half
of Montana's $1,000, 0~O0-bushel wheat
crop. the greatest in the history OF the
state, has been shipped. it is Indicated
by railroad reports. Harvesting has been
steady except for Interruptions because
of the weather.
1t seems evident that the farmers OF
the state will exert themselves to the
utmost to clean up the crop IN the
shortest possible time as winter is ap-

is liable to halt harvesting operations
for a considerable time.
