COUNTY STATISTICS 



The following tables show acreage, 

 yield per acre, production and farm val- 

 ue of principal crops for each county of 

 Montana as estimated by the State-Fed- 

 eral Crop Reporting Service for 1927 and 

 1928. 



These estimates are based on the cen- 

 sus of 1924 and sample data as to acre- 

 age yield and price changes for 1927 and 

 1928 with reference to that base. 



Farmers, grain men, bankers and 

 county agents were extensively circular- 

 ized to secure the necessary basic mater- 

 ial for these estimates. 



They serve not so much as an absolute 

 measure of the production and value in 

 any one year as they do as indicators of year to year relative changes.
