State Invests in Land Bank Bonds and Warrants
Helena records show the state board of land commissioners approving a $500,000 purchase of federal land bank bonds and authorizing the treasurer to buy July and August general fund warrants totaling about $600,000. The board plans further bids on bonds from Harlowton Philipsburg and school districts, boosting investments to over $1.5 million. Commissioner T. M.

Wheat market seen favorable for farmers this season
Washington July 15 The Department of Agriculture foresees a favorable wheat market for farmers this season despite a larger projected production and rising stocks. U S carryover is expected around 85 000 900 bushels with large exports in other countries similar to last year. Domestic winter wheat will fall about 50 9 00 000 bushels from last year while spring wheat may rise about 10 9 000 000 bushels. Europe and North Africa show small gains not sufficient to offset declines in Canada and southern hemisphere prospects.
