While the weather has been u%nfavor-
able for harvesting and threshing in
many parts of the state, conditions have
been favorable for the planting Of winter
wheat. John C. Paugh, county agent
of Chouteau county, reports an increased
acreage of winter wheat and most OF the
fields were planted before September /.
Twenty-four Of the ~rnIrty-three fields
Of approved seed grain planted in 6heri-
dan county this year passed the final
inspection last month. Twenty regis
tered grain fields also passed inspection
during August and IS were disqualified.
Practically all of the grain in the
southern half of Roosevelt county was
harvested by the first of September. In
communities some grain remained to be
harvested. Some damage hal been caused
by rust in parts OF the county where
maturity was delayed.
