The averngo for the month of May being 3 inches, June 3 inches, July 2 inches und August 2 inches. . Thus, the wheat which is just ap pearing from the ground in May, is kept con stantly soaked until harvest, which comes lntc in August. This differs from other states, and wheat countries, which apparently have ns great or grantor rainfall, but receive no ruin in tho summer months. Crops In such localities rarely receive any rain at all after it is ready to head out. Our Montana rainfall, liewkise is nn npproximute duplicate of the -above, which is the official-figures for the Lethbridge district, The nmar.ing crops of 1017, in tho vicinity of Stirling, Raymond and New Dayton, where wo have extensive holdings, were produced with less than 11 inches of rain, which was, with one ex-. ccption, the lowest rainfull in 10 years.
