THE KIND OF E

There has been any question as
to Montana's capability to produce wheat.
1t is a fact that she can produce a larger
quantity of wheat to the acre than any
other portion of the United States. The
quality of the cereal produced is where
she lacks. This is undoubtedly due to lack
OF care, rather than to any other cause.
One thing which has tended to bring this
about, was because there was no market
for the grain, SO the farmers who produced
it ct all did SO merely for experiment or
for chicken feed. This period has passed,
and wheat now produced in Montana can
find a ready cash market, and the soft,
musty wheat heretofore grown must now
give place to a quality by which the farm
or can gain the best results in as short a
period as possible. Great care must be
exercised in selecting the right quality Of
wheat for seed. There is no question but
that the hard wheat S successfully grown
throughout Minnesota and Dakota can be
grown here equally as we'll. Soft wheat
is generally smutty, while hard wheat is
seldom SO. It will be readily seen that
hard wheat must be grown if satisfactory
results are to be attained. In d recent
number of the Bozeman Chronicle we
notice the following regarding the Sas-
katchewan fife, which will be read with
interest:
smut in wheatis a matter of perennial
interest. OF an instructive nature is the
report Of q test made by D. L. Wellman,
the pioneer in the Saskatchewan fife line
in Minnesota. This gentleman smother
ed a lot of his wheat in smut and sowed
it in many soils and under varying condi
lions, but the crop, when garnersd, was as
clean and healthy as though the seed had
never touched smut. We presume that
Mr. Wellman knew fife wheat would not
smut. This has been known and stated
frequently by farmers and grain dealers
of the northwest for years, although Mr..
Wellman's test is the most thorough one
yet reported. Farmers who want to ban
ish smut have but to use pure fife seed,
change it every few years, and they will
not only raise clean, healthy wheat, but
get a good and very regular yield for an
indefinite period. There are varieties of
soft wheat which will yield a little batter
for a few years, but they are always liable
to smut, or contract other diseases, and
never sell as high as pure fife in any
market"

LAND "

There are many who seem to be of the
opinion that the presumption, tree claim
last session of congress. The bill for the
repeal Of those laws passed both houses,
but an amendment passed by the senate
was not concurred in by the house when
congress adjourned, hence Che laws are
still in force. There is little doubt, how
ever, but congress on r~eassembling next
December will pass the bill, repeating
finally all these laws, and it stands our
people in hand here in the west to use
these rights by taking up land very soon
or they are gone forever.

SOUVENIR OF THE SIXTIES.

A committee representing the Historic
al Society, including X. Beidler and Col.
Wheeler, this morning repaired to the
site of the famed Hangman's Tree in
Dry gulch, for the purpose of procuring
a relic of that dread instrument of justice
in the early times in the shape OF a block
from its historic trunk. The tree having
been cut down some years ago, nothing
remained but the stump, which in turn
was almost leveled to the ground by the
axes Of poor residents Of the neighbor-
hood, whom the writer hereof has seen
resort thither for the purpose of obtain
ing a meagre supply of free fuel. After
much delying the committee succeeded
in obtaining a block about a foot square,
which was borne back to the city and
placed in the rooms of the Historical
Society.-Herald.

FOOL AND PHILOSOPHER.

/ notice that a number of the Terrific
rial papers are severely criticising the
action of the authorities in ordering the
removal of the miners from the Sweet
grass Hills. Why they should do so,
seems u~naccountabie, as it is known that
an Indian reserI alton is solely the prop
erty of the Indians, and if one industry
is allowed suffrage within its bounds, al
others have the same privilege. If tie
miners have the right to follow thier voca-
ton within its sacred boundaries, so has
the farmer, and stockman.
Coming events are said to cast their
shadows before, and if we are to accept
this adage as true, times are likely to be
lively in Great Falls next year.
From what | can learn on the outside,
there is likely to be something akin to a
building boom in Great Falls neXt spring.
/ understand that the new -four mill at
this place has cost the proprietors al least
$4,000. Quite a snug little sun of mon
sy to invest in a business where the prof
its are in the future. But, then, there is
no question but that the future will JUST
fly the expenditure. Montana has never
yet disappointed anyone who invested
money to develope her varied resources.
