FORT MEADE


This well known military post is stu
ated one and half miles east of Sturgis
The first military camp was established
in the spring Of 1876, on Spring creek
north of Bare Butte. This camp was
called Camp Sturgis," in honor Of Lieu
tenant Sturgis, killed in the Custer mas
sacre. The present fort was established
in the August following and named after
the celebrated Union general, George c.
Meade. The site is most magnificent
one. On one side rises the foothills OF
the Black Hills covered with their dark
pines, while on the other hand stretches
away toward the east the rolling prair-
les. Bare Butte, just north of the post
rises straight out of the level prairie and
stands like some lonely sentinel watch
ing over soldier and citizen alike. The
buildings comprising the post are new
and elegant, and from the lips of officers
who have seen the majority of the posts
Of the country we have heard that Fort
Meade is one of the most desirable loca-
tions in the entire war department. The
post is ten-company post, and at pres
ent is occupied by the Third infantry
(white) and the Eighth cavalry, who re-
Gently moved here from Montana and
Texas, respectively. Until May this
post was occupied by 1.-The Seventh cayal-
ry and Twenty fifth infantry.
The post requires enormous quantities
of supplies, all of which are furnished by
the farmers of the country contiguous
An idea of the amount OF material used
can be gathered from scrutinizing the
following figures: Hay, LOO tons; corn
