THERE Is no product that will add more
to the comfort of the farmer than that of
small fruits. The writer has noticed that
the farmers of portions of Missoula county,
as a rule, are better contented and enjoy life
better than any other section, and the main
cause OF it is attributed to the fact that their
tables are better provided with fruits than
those in other parts of the country. Cur
rants, gooseberries, raspberries and straw
berries can be grown with success in all
parts OF the Territory, and our farmers. if
they would enjoy life, should prepare to
plant and grow them. The cost and trouble
it will take is nothing compared to the lux
ury of such fruits.

The cheat question is not cheat. Your

One of our best farmers and very large
land owner drilled in field oi wheat. 1t
was we'll done. Harvest time came-no
wheat. He moved the cheat for hay. That
year there was large quantity of degener-
ated wheat, or chess cheat. On" year
helped a man harvest field of wheat on
new ground-the first crop. In some places
there was heavy growth OF cheat. asked
for the cause. Answer: log and brush heaps
had been burned there.
Some children are intelligent and active,
while Others of the same family are not In

these rows, at nearly right angles, there
were some hills no more like dwarf corn
than chess is like wheat. They were small,

is cheat. Whether either by cultivation
