MONTANA HERMIT killed.
Shot and Beaten Then Thrown into
q Woll.

ANACONDA, Mont, July S.-Shot
through the heart and his head crush.
ed by repeated blows from a heavy
cub, the body of Clarence Ackart,
aged 81, q trapper, was found in a
we'll near Divide where the murderer
had thrown the body. The murder
is thought to have been committed
about April 8.
The discovery was made by Deput;
Sheriff Albert Girboux and Stock In.
spector Collins, who were put on the
case after Ackart's parents, living IN
Payette, Idaho, advanced the theory OF
foul play and asked the assistance OF
the officers in locating their son. A
prisoner now lodged in the county
Jail is suspected Of the murder.
The we'll is twenty-five feet deep
and fifty feet from Ackart's lonely
cabin, where he had lived the life OF
a hermit for ten years. The murderer
evidently killed Ackart by shooting
and then to make certain Of his work,
battered out his brains.

Winter wheat and winter rye are

the present time. They will be ready
for the reaper about the 18th Of this
month, rye harvesting starting during

been attempted as yet. There was
more winter wheat and rye sOwn last

TINES HAVE CHANGED.

Nearly every paper in Texas is doing
good work for the advancement of
its home town and the surrounding
territory. They are giving less adj
vice to the farmers and more TO their
own townspeople. Much good should
come from their efforts if they do
not spoil every thing by declaring an
armistice just at the critical NOM
ent.-H0uStOn Chronicle.
AS to giving advice to the farmers,
the present generation of editors is dis
qualified for lack of experience. The
old-timers, in the west at least, were
mostly men who had been Brought up
near the farms if not on them. They
were therefore able to advise the farm
er intelligently as to when, and how to
prune the alfalfa shrubs, and as to the
proper embrOcatiOn to remove the bed
ticks from the Ows Modern editors
are either unable or unwilling to help
the agriculturalist in that way. They
leave him to practice the knowledge
gained from(Or in spite of the elder
generation of scribes, and they wisely
limit themselves to the discussion OF
of things they know something about.
They find it easier to invite the farm
er to help himself by writing articles
to other men engaged in the Same-bnsl-
mess; and the farmers of this generation
are quite equal to the task of writing
things that are worth while ON the sub
ject of ~farming-and other subjects also.
