Offer Sports Costumes
in MANY Smart Designs

A new tennis ensemble consists of
a jumper with Vionnet scanning in a
manner to insure absolute freedom
of motion, and a sleeveless slip-on
sweater This latter is made with a
notched collar, small slit pockets and
a perled bottom Both are made of
jersey and come in bright colors only.
Stripes and plaids are used in one or
the other, either the jumper or jack
ct remaining plain for contrast.
Smart little jackets to wear with
either the sports frock or semiformal
sports frocks are to be found in dap
per styles. Even the fabrics seem to
carry out the smart impression, for
they range from cotton pique and ON
bre striped flannel, to quilted silks,
with all-over designs in conservative
patterns.
Velveteen in purple, all the soft
green shades, marine blue, brown
and black is the most popular mate
rial for it can be worn with a greater
variety of frocks. These little jack
cts are finished with simple turn
over collars, strictly mannish ones,
and the tuxedo-shawl collar. Some are
made in double breasted styles, others
finished with a single hutton or double
link All the better ones except those
in cotton pique and corduroy are lined
with silk in a neutral shade.

STATE FARMERS SOW
LESS SPRING WHEAT
Low Prices, Backward Month. Cause
Many Farmers to Plant
Feed Crops.

Low prices for wheat combined
with backward spring are apparent
ly having the effect of holding down
acreage devoted to spring wheat on
Montana farms and with the heavy
reduction in winter wheat acreage it
is not probable that the total acreage
will be as large as last year, says the
crop report just issued by the state
publicity division in cooperation with
the extension service.
Extension agents report that in the
eastern third of the state practically
all wheat is in the ground with only
a few scattered farmers still seeding.
In central Montana wheat seeding is
possibly 60 per cent completed. Cas-
cade, Pondera, Glacier, Toole and Gal
latin indicating only from 40 to so
per cent seeded. Many farmers, cur
failing wheat seeding, are swinging to
increased planting of all feed crops,
alfalfa and sweet clover in some Sec
tons showing an increase of 100 per
cent. Flax seeding also is in progress,
with the acreage jumping from 1000
to $500 in Pondera and 40 to so per
cent increase predicted in Sheridan,
Richland, Prairie and adjoining coun-
ties.

pocketbook since it can be made for
little or nothing at home. The mate
rails required are four empty flour
bags and four yards of bias tape. A
patent-leather or suede belt is a smart
accessory and can be used on any
number of other frocks besides, or a
narrow belt of contrasting material
can be made.

pins as his assistant.
A tall, graceful brunette was his
model, and like a magician, he pinned
the shining folds around her, added
the veil and all the accessories, until
at last she walked away, as regal q
bride in appearance as those who
have symphony orchestras for their
wedding music, dozens in the bridal
procession, with bishops to officiate.
Some said that the bridal veil, with
the green just limited beneath the
white, reminded them of the cataract
foam-veil at Niagara falls.
But Dame Fashion wanted to know
more, and with the first opportunity,
asked some questions. The designer
said:
Yes, it is my custom to use color
always with bridal wells. The special
color chosen depends much on the col
or of the gowns of the attendants. The
most recent color effect | have used
is suntan or even deeper tan, in
the whole bridal costuming."
An astonished Dame demanded if
the bridal veil and all was in suntan.
Certainly, the bridal veil and all.
The effect is astonishingly beauti-
full" Then Dame Fashion remem-
bered all she had heard and read of
t1tv of
heirloom wells and laces, and realized
that these effects were much the
| same.
At the same fashion exhibition, it
seemed quite plain that just like the
old saying, EVERY dog has his day."
so it is equally true that every cos
tune has its special purse or hand
bag. The pretty fabric bag, all tap

designs, is said to have begun Its life

kind, but by another moment along

MONTANA BANKS
IN GOOD CONDITION
FIVE LESS BANKS IN STATE
DUE TO CONSULTATIONS
DURING 1929.

Montana had one bank for each
300 of population in 1928, records of
the state publicity office show. Az
erage deposits per bank at the close
of business in 1928 were S91S,1S6. In
1927 the population bank was 1926
and the average deposits, S620,9S7.
Records of the state bank exam
iners show at the close of business
in 1928, total resources of Montana
banks aggregating $20S,000,000, as
compared with S176,000,000 at close
of business in 1927. Similarly depos-
its at the close of business in 1928
were about S14,000,000 higher as COM
pared with a year ago, and were $685.
100000 higher, as compared with fig
ures at the close of business in 1926,
and 100000 higher, as compared
with deposits at the close of business
in 1925.
In the Forthcoming issue of the
Montana Farm Review, it will be
pointed out that the physical condi-
ton of Montana banks, considering
the large proportion of total banking
transactions that are contributed in
some manner by agriculture, tends to
reflect the financial condition of agri-
culture itself.
The number of banks declined
slightly in 1928 from the total 1927
figures, due to consultations. In
1928 there were listed II national
banks, $50 operating under state
charters and l private institution, a
total of 202. There were 207 banks
of all types in the state in 1927.
