General crop conditions are very good with spring wheat harvesting starting and winter wheat harvest largely complete. Insects like grasshoppers are not causing major damage and beets and sweet corn show strong growth while livestock markets report firm prices. Labor openings remain unfilled and no fires were reported this week.
The Christian Rural Overseas Program organizes a national effort to collect food from rural populations for relief of Europe’s hunger. Dr H G Blemme of Bodeman leads the state drive, with three major church relief groups and farm organizations backing the effort as harvest approaches.
Committees in each Montana county are forming to run the local drive with possible county groupings. Donations of food may be pledged to any denomination and distributed to Europe through sponsoring groups. The program stresses aid for the hungry and vulnerable in Europe while churches nationwide cooperate.
