“TEN PERCENT i i \ because wheat wag not well covered, INCREASE IN tion From Red River Valley in Two States WINTER CROPS ARE FAIR No Great Killing Reported From Montana—Moisture Condi- tions Much Better Monthly Report Crop and Busi nes’ Conditions in the Ninth Fed- | eral ‘Reserve District. John H. | Rich, Federal Reserve \Agent, iT March 6, 1919. || 2 &. A series of reports from all portions of the district just completed indi- cates that it is reasonable to forecast @ ten per cent increase in wheat acre- age in the eastern half of North Da- kota and in Minnesota. Throughout the eastern portions of both North and South Dakota, Minnesota and Wiscon- -Sin, there will be substantial increas- es in the barley acreage due to the results from this crop last year. Throughout this area a satisfactory amount of fall work was accomplishes | last year. In parts of the western half of North Dakota, and in portions of South Dakota, acreage increases will depend to some extent on favor orable conditions in the early spring: Ift he spring proves to-be early and favorable to plowing, it will have & beneficial effect upon the acreage o all crops. Montana planted an increased acre- age of winter wheat last fall.” While there was a deficiency of moisture during the winter and some anxiety the reports\do not so far indicaie that any considerable amount has beea winter killed. In western Montana during the last few weeks, there has been a satisfactory precipitationana conditions are excellent. In eastern Montana there is prospect of a heavy planting of spring waeat. The ground is in good shape for spring work requirements. A great deal of seed has been arranged for through the Federal government. In the Gallatin Valley, the prospects are for an increased acreage. Mon- tana has profited by a mild:winter-and stock has come through in very good condition. Sheep are beginning ‘to move freely at a nominal :price ‘of about $15.00. This figure is for ewes to lamb the latter part of March and April, Indications are that the price’ will settle to $14.00 and $14.50. The extent to which the iast crop has increased prosperity in South :Da- ‘kota may, be judged from the follew-) ing paragraph from a‘letter of. an old and reliable banker. “Our farmers are generally turnin their attention to stock. Eaat yeariwe harvested one of the best average crops of wheat that thig¢@fstrict has seen and many farmers*took as high as $6,000 to $7,000 from:a single quar- ter.of wheat land. Our locality nas, of course, been fortunate,gnd has nov known a failure since 1894. 1 thiak the general tendency ‘wiz: pe to sow as much wheat as Jast year ‘and prob- ably more on account of the fixing of the price by the government.” The return of large numbers of men from the military ‘camps ad from oversees has appreciably improved tac farm labor situation.” Ityis, evident that there is a widespread disposition ag expressed by the southern -Minne- sota banker, to ‘utilize the available acreago of tillable soil and put in a ful crop of everything this spring, with particular emphasis on wheat, “A CANNON WILt STOP OTTO AUTO" anton & For three years the possibility of a marriage between the prince of Wales and Princess Yolande of Italy has been discussed. Now that the war is over and the prince is expected soon to take a corn and barley, probably about in the; wife, it is renewed. Yolande is one of the most beautiful and wholesome of royal princesses and there is said to have been a real attachment between the pair. order named. The serious seed situation which ex- isted a year ago did not deter the planting of a large crop. Conditions at this time have entirely changed. The wheat growing sections of the district are either fully supplied with seed of high quality or have adequate seed supplies available. A year ago it was necessary to make a special in- vestigation and census of seed sup- plies. This year there are ample stocks of all kinds and some surplus for use outside of this district. Moisture. conditions improved ap- preciably during: Feburary. The larger part of the Ninth district is covered by a satisfactory blanket of snow and most. of the reports indicate that the frost has not penetrated deeply into the ground, due to the remarkably mild winter. *Should the remainder of the'winter ‘he free from periods of intense cold, it’is probable that much of the moisture afforded by the snow will be retained in the soil. It is safe to assume that there will be further snow falls before the spring season, and that there is still some tmprove- ment in moisture conditions that may ‘tbe looked for. Business during February was active throughout the district, and trade fn ~~ the cost of building material, althougit labor costs, which are aiso‘a controll- ing element, remain approximately the same. There are signs of increased building activity in the spring, and some authorities look for further re- ductions in material prices, whieh will undoubtedly have a very important effect in stimulating the volume of construction, especially as to small tm- provements.

Bankers anticipate an active year and with no very import- ant recession in the commodity -pri- ces, the demands arising out of spring planting will be heavy and represept almost as great a load as"last year.
