The western half of the district which suffered froma ‘short crop because of drouth last year has benefitted by considerable winter mois- ture, and snow storms during the month further improved the prospects for spring planting. In Montana, the mountains were bare of snow last year and irrigation water was very short in consequence of the drying up of the streams, Heavy snows have fallen in most of the juountain country anl normal water conditions are antici- pated as a result, Farther east the moisture resulting from spring thaws’ hag been largely absorbed by the soil, and in the eastern half of the district soil condition prospects are normal. The grain raising sections of Mou- tana and some areas in western North Dakota and western South Dakota need spring rains in order to give the crops a good start, and the out- look in these sections is much better than a year ago'at this time. HEAVY LAND SETTLEMENTS Thyre was a heavy volume of Marth 1 land settlements throughout’ eastern South Dakota and southera Minnesota, and in a lesser degree in the eastern portion of North Dakota. Comparatively few. contracts were de- faulted and a considerable number of farmers will come in from Towa, Tl. nofs and /points east and south as' a result. Band deposits improved as a result, 5 reporting banks showing an- in- Crease of $23.330,000 over deposits 30 days ago, while rediscounts with the federal reserve bank showed a de- crease of $16,871 000. The states of Minnesota, North Da- kota, South Dakota and Montana, pro- ducing the bulk. of northwestern wheat, undoubtedly will show a decrease in the wheat acreage this year due to the high price of farm labor, which as reported from 65 local points has advanced 73.4 since 1914, and due also to the scarcity of good seed wheat. The natura] letting down after the extraordinary crop produe- tion efforts during the war is also factor, A probable. decrease of at least 10 percent will reduce the acre- nge this year to approximately 15,- 000,000 acres, which on the basis of average production indicates a loss of from 20,000,000 to 22.000.000 bushels on the 1920 crop. Winter wheat pros- pects in’ this district are fair to: good. Some wheat in Montana has winter killed, but the amount jis not greater than the normal Toss. The winter wheat acreage, however, is somewhat les than a year ago. Some shrinkage may be expected in other grain crops, but it is too early ‘to‘estimate what’ this will amount to. There is, every prospect. however, that the acreago loss will be offset by better crops than have been harvested for the last QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION Get Dr, Edwards’ Olive Tablets That is the cry of thousands Consumers Dray and Transfer ; Co. | Phone 270 Ice and Teaming © SaanEEEGREESEnnmmemememmemmee sn Ct tl Eee 1 Keystone Comedy 2 Reel NE | Pet We car OY Per IT’S DIFFERENT, YOU’LL ENJOY IT MONROE SALISBURY IN HIS NEWEST BIG DRAMATIC DRAMA “The Sundown Trail” A great picture oJ the golden da: S.

The Krench champion probably will not extend his present visit to the United States. Rickard said today, and he Anust re- turn to Paris for a bout scheduled ia- August. This ig sufficient to prevent his ap- pearance against Dempsey this year, the promoter added, explaining that for the international bout to be a financial success it would have to be held in the open and as Carpentier will be busy until July,.he:would not haye enough time to train! before the arrival of cold weather.
