Montana Crops Are
Promising Much for
This Great Year

Montana's sugar beet crop esti.
. mated by the state-federal crop re.
porting service at $4,000 tons COM
pares with $4,000 tons forecast a
month ago and $4,000 tons harvested
in 1927.
Estimates of production of feed
crops in Montana on Aug. l. 1928,
show oats, 20,487,000 bushels; barley,
5,80O,O00 bushels, and corn, 5,13S,00O
bushels, compared respectively with
l4,554,OOO bushels; 100000 bushels.
and 100000 bushels forecast for
these crops month ago. Production
compared with last year in all eases
will be somewhat lower, 1927 having
witnessed unusually large crops of all
three grains.
With an indicated production of 3
$4,000 tons of tame hay and 623,000
tons of wild hay, Montana farmers and
stockmen may be expected to put up
about 20 per cent less than the bump
err crop Of 1927 when a total of g.
10l090 tons We're secured, according
10 the state-federal crop reporting
staff. However, with good carry
over of old hay, Montana stockmen
will enter the winter with total sup
ply not greatly different than that of
a year ago. Quality of the 1923 hay
crop SO far as has been reported is
running as good or better than that of
last year.
With the Aug. estimate of 49,
$4,000 bushels, Montana's 1928
wheat crop is now rated second only
to that of the bumper season of 1927. /
Compared with other states, Montana
ranks in third place in wheat produc-
ton, this year exceeded only by Kan
sas, with 179,044,000 bushels, and
North Dakota with 1859, 900 bush
els. However, according to the state
division of publicity, when allowance
IS made for the fact that 66,048,000 |
bushels of North Dakota's spring
wheat crop is durum wheat not used
for bread, while Montana's Hurum
wheat is only 211,000 bushels, Mon
tana's crop of winter and spring
wheat used for bread purposes is 49,
$4,000 bushels, compared with g.
641,000 bushels of bread wheat in
North Dakota, making Montana Sec
ond in national production of milling
wheat.
Montana's potato crop this year is
now forecast at 4,933,000 bushels BY
The state-federal crop reporting staff.
This is slightly lower than the crop
II 1927, which was finally estimated
1t 5,265,O00, but is an increase over
he production outlook of month ago
which was 4,148,00 bushels.
The national production of potatoes
S now indicated at 459, 1877 900 bush
is, compared with 444 million bushels
month ago, and 401' million bushels
Produced in 1927. If the present in
iieations of yield are realized, grow
RS will be faced with supply situa-
ion even less favorable than last fall. +
however, the crop in the northern !
tates IS still to be made and much de- =
ends upon August and September .
yeather as to whether the govern 4
lent forecast will be realized, accord 4
1g to Edward Dickey, state horticul- HI
lrist. However, the general outlook H
t this time is not favorable for west Il
IN growers. \

FLAX TARIFF
BOOST ASKED
Christensen Appeals to Cool
idge 70 Protect Farmers
from Losses

st. Paul, Sept. 19.-tR)-An i'm
mediate increase Of 50 per cent IN
the tariff on flax was asked of
President Coolidge today in . tele-
gram sent by Governor Christianson,
who declared that If action Of this
sortNis delayed the Spectator will
get the immediate benefits"
The governors brief message fol-
lows: j
Northwest farm conditions make
it important that you use your pow
er under the flexible provisions OF
the tariff law to raise the duty on
flax SO per cent. The Importance OF
doing this before the farmer mar.
kets his 1928 crop should be i'm.
pressed on the tariff commission.
IF it is done later the speculator
will get the immediate benefits
Wheat, oats and potatoe prices are
low, and an increase in flax prices
would help cover the losses which
the farmer will sustain on his 9th
er small grain crops.
1.-The propriety Of taking this &C.
ton is suggested by the fact that
half of the linseed oil made in the
country today is from imported lin
seed. Encouraging increased acre
age of flax would tend to reduce thu
acreage devoted to crops of which
we have exportable SURPRISES"

Rev. Frank Steelman tells this
story: - colOred man sentenced
to hang was led to the scaffold. In
the courtyard of the Jail crowd
had gathered to witness his ex-
ecution. The official in charge ad-
justed the moose and black cap
and was about to give the signal
to the executioner when the fire
siren screeched ,utside the walls.
The witnesses and officials dashed
out to see the racing apparatus,
leaving the doomed man standing
on the trap.
"While he was waiting for the
Jail officials to return an Italian
passed by the open gates and
peeked in. What you doingT in
