ln~exhaustible beds %ofgypsum encircle
the entire Hills, just inside the foothills
and outside the. main Black Hills. At
present it is only used by plasterers.
With the advent Of railroads, it will be
shipped to the states east of the Missouri
rive, there to be used AS a fertilizer on
their worn out lands.
Petroleum is found on the west side of
the Hills in Wyoming territory near the
boundary line between Dakota and
Wyoming. No works have as vet been
established for refining. 1t is only used
for lubricating purposes by the Home
stake and other companies ut their
mills.
Salt springs are situated about eight
miles northeast of the oil springs and in
Wyoming territory. Salt for the entire
Hills is manufactured here, and sold on
the gr und for two cents per pound.
Marble OLA beautiful purple color is
found nea Rapid City and { ulster, and
sand stone, granite, slate porphyry and
limestone is plentiful, and is found in
every part of the Hills.
The Black Hills is a well watered
country, being drained by the forks of
tie Cheyenne river and their tributa-
ries. On Hot Sprr% creek i'm Custer
county are situated wliaral springs
which are fast acquiring a reputation for
curative powers second to none in the
United States. The average tempera-
ture is % degrees Farenheit.
The average prices Of the different
products of the country are as follows:
Cogn, - per bushel oats, 81 wheat,
1925; potatoes, 81 onions, So 50; -four
s. per hundred weight eggs, fifty cents
per dozen; batter, forty cents per pound;
groceries cost about 3 cents more than
in Chicago; dayboard $25 per month
With lodging $35. Farm hands, $50 per
month teamsters, $40 to $50; day labor
ers, 50 per day mechanics from ~ to So
"r Day; miners, 81 per day.
Money is loaned at from Is to So per
cent per annum. The reason ofSuch HIGH
rate of interest is that there are SO many
opportunities Of investing money to
good advantage that few people have
any to loan, and the demand has always
exceeded the supply.
