Where There Are No Bad Indians.

The Sisseton Indian reservation. at
the eastern boundary of South Dakota,
and containing one million acres OF
choice farming lands, has just been
opened for settlement and offers TO the
homeseeker inducements that cannot be
| eaualled The soil is very fertile, the
country well watered, there being
numerous small lakes within its boun-
Diary, and it is within short distance
of the twin cities of the Northwest, st.
Paul and Minneapolis, insuring good
markets almost at the settlers doors.
This is not frontier reservation, bnt
is surrounded on all sides by an old,
well settled and prosperous country.
The reservation will be held for actual
settlers, only homestead entries OF 160
acres each being permitted, and there
is room for more than 5000 farms. To
get the best, however, come early; first
come, first served. The Chicago, Mil
waukee and st. Paul railway is the only
road which runs directly through the
reservation. To reach it from the East
buy tickets to SOmmit, S. d., Wabay, 5.
d., Wilmot, S. D., or Wheaton, MINI.
Summit is within the reservation, the
other stations on the border. All ticket
agents in the United States or Canada
sell tickets via. the Chicago, Milwaukee
and ST. Paul railway.
For further information apply to Geo.
H. Heafford, General Passenger Agent,
Chicago, H., or to VIM. Kelly, Jr.,
