A 1912 winter wheat crop OF $780,
913 900 Bu.-or about 150,OO0000 Blu.
in excess of the AAA production goals
under the 'food-for- defense" program
was said by the agriculture depart
ment to be indicated.
This estimate was based on factors
affecting production which are meas
urable in the fall, such as the seeded
acreage, condition of the crop on Dec.
l, rainfall and temperature to date,
as related to yields in past years.
Because this years record wheat
supply of 1,348,OOO.OOO bushels was
sufficient to meet expected needs for
nearly two years, the agriculture de-
partment sought a greatly reduced
crop in 1912.
Plans for a combined winter and
bushels compared with GAS ,937 900
bushels harvested this year. A sharply
reduced spring wheat crop of ITS -
900 bushels next year would give a
total crop of 8O6 100000 bushels or
156, 100000 bushels more than the gov
ernment's goal.
Farmers themselves co-operated
Fundamentally with the wheat pro-
| gram, which called for reduction Of
about l2.5 percent in the seeded acre
age. The 3s,318O00 acres seeded this
fall to winter wheat was IA percent
below the 45.6s3,0o0 acres planted a
year ago.
The department said unusually
favorable weather was the factor re-
sponsible for the prospective over
production. The Dec. condition OF
winter wheat was 81 percent of normal
compared with "a year ago.
THE generally excellent condition
of the crop is attributed" the depart
ment said, ito ample moisture and
warm. open weather which has con-
tinued the growth until a later date
than usual"
Present indications point to an av-
erage yield of 16 bushels per acre
compared with lat bushels this year
and with an average of lib bushels
Officials emphasized that the indi-
Gated production might not be borne
out, inasmuch as much could happen
between now and harvest time next
June and July to lower prospects.
However. past history has shown that
when conditions were favorable TN the

I'VE have done good job and never
advised to contrary. In my opinion a
greater and more efficient service In
this emergency can be rendered by
permitting state to carry on under
present organization.
However, at your request as my
commander in chief I am cheerfully
directing proper officials to conform
with your direction. People of Mon
tana unalterably opposed to federal
ization of unemployment compensation
and employment service and may
assure them that after war has been
brought to victorious conclusion this
important part of state government
will be returned to state control?
People of Montana are ready and
anxious to make any sacrifice neces-
sary to bring victory to the nation
but when that victory has been at
tanned we hope we may be permitted
to carry on as sovereign state with
out Capitalization of state functions in
Washington. Governor and state ad-
ministration anxious to cooperate in
every way possible. With assurance of
my confidence and esteem"

Early Farm, Machine
Repdir Orders Urged

Immediate action in checking farm
machinery and ordering repairs at
once is essential if farmers are to
have needed parts in time for in
creased production of certain foods
during 1912 under the Food for Free

man of the Montana U. S. D. A. de-
Tense board, told extension workers
attending the annual conference Of
the Montana extension service at
Montana State college
Waiting until spring to order parts
may be too late, he said, because man.
ufacturers must have early informa-
ton on the demand for repair parts
and new machinery in order to have
it ready for next seasons operations.
