Daniels County Wheat
Above Average Mark

Though the wheat harvested in the
Scobey area this fall is far below the
average in quality for the county,
many farmers in Daniels county are
pleased to note that wheat shipped
from Scobey is above the average of
that received at terminal markets.
The average weight of wheat receiv-
ed at Minneapolis is so pounds per
bushel, it was learned at Scobey, while
the average for Daniels county is in the
neighborhood of So pounds.
More than two-thirds of the wheat
crop from this territory has been mar
keted, over 100000 bushels being ship
ped from Scobey. It is estimated that
only about 100 900 bushels remain IN
the district after seed stocks are de-
Quoted. Reports from other depots
in the county reveal that the situation
is countrywide.
Some wheat was produced that
weighed more than 60 pounds, while in
other fields the weight dropped to as
low as 48 pounds per bushel.
