which have characterized its two pre-

being prepared at the interior depart

for spring planting. He has, therefore,
a double purpose in fastening the off,

reservation getting every thing in readi-

cape from drowning in branch
of the Canadian river. The reserva-
ton of the Cheyennes and Arapahoes
embraces about 5. 500. 900 acres The
allotment to the Indians has cut the
amount to be opened TO settlement
down to about 2, sO0 900 acres This is
| enough for Ii, 500 homesteads, or would
be if it was all good land. But there
| is field for selection. In the western
| part of the reservation there is some
very poor land. The best lies Just
west of the Oklahoma line. The land
selected by the Indians is said to be
about the center of the reservation
