MONTANA FARM REVIEW 



Bye. 



Rye production in 1924 was slightly larger than in 1923, a higher acre yield 

 more than offsetting a moderate acreage reduction. Winter rye makes up the bulk 

 of the crop. Rye grown principally as a feed crop is also a good cash crop in years 

 of fair market prices and substitutes for winter wheat in sections where the latter 

 does not winter through. North central Montana has a good share of the state's 

 total acreage.
