Beaverhead County Sees Beneficial Rain Across Farmlands
Beaverhead County experienced widespread rain that lasted through the night aiding dry farmland and stockmen. Roads became muddy and impassable as rain continued, while farmers expect a strong wheat, rye and barley crop and a record May precipitation. The Dillon baseball team lost 7 to 2 to the University club of Butte, in a game marked by many errors. A parade led by the American Legion band preceded the game at the ballpark. Construction on a new 3,000,000 pound wool warehouse by First National Bank is progressing rapidly to store and grade Beaverhead wool for the 1921 crop amid expected large output.
