Northern Pacific reports Montana crop conditions vary across districts

A Northern Pacific crop report covers Montana and neighboring states. In Sidney district crops are bleak with late fields possibly yielding full crops, while irrigation districts are poor though sugar beets appear assured.

Wilsall offers bright fall prospects, Columbus districts show good results, and Bitter Root expects light dry lead yield. Frenchtown wheat should exceed last year. Sugar beets and apples give mixed outlooks as moisture needs persist.
