YANkTON RESERVATION.
1t viii Not lie Opened Before June, Says
Register BoyntOn.

1t viii Not lie Opened Before June, Says
Register Boynton.
In an interview Register Boynton, of the
Mitchell land office, said that there was
hardly any probability Of the Yankton
Reservation being opened before the LIST of
June. He says the whole thing is hanging
fire on account OF Commissioner Lock-
harts demand that the state be allowed to
file on $4,000 acres before the settlers get a
chance at the land. Mr.. Boynton says
that the report that the reservation will be
opened Immediately with the proclama-
tiOn OF the President is all nonsense. He
says that at all times in the history of this
country no lands have been opened to set :
tlement without giving at least thirty days
notice by Presidential proclamation. 1t
will be at least two weeks more before the
proclamation will be issued, and thirty
after that will make the season so late that
the settlers cannot raise anything but corn
and fax.
j. w. Muchow of Minnehaha County,
who has just returned from trip to the
reservation, says that if Commissioner
Lockhart is sustained and the state allow
ed first choice at $1,000 acres, the land
which will be left for the settlers will be
hardly worth taking. He says the soil is
OF gumbo nature and not we'll adapted to
agriculture. Mr.. Muchow has evidently ex-
aggerated and compared the part Of the
reservation which he saw with his old and
valuable farm in the richest part of that
county. Whether or not the land is valu-
able, there will be no dearth of persons
ready to take it.

FARMING OPERATIONS.
Comprehensive Crop Review from south
Dakota.

Comprehensive Crop Review from south
Dakota.
A correspondent has returned to Sioux
Falls from trip overland to Centervilie and
Mitchell. The prospects for good
year in South Dakota, with excellent
crops, were probably never better. Some
farmers were found who had become so
discouraged early in March on account of
the dryness of the ground that they did
not 60 ahead with their seeding for fear OF
losing even the seed. Now they are heart
lily sorry that they did not act on the prop
Osition that Providence helps those who
help themselves. They are consequently
little behind, but hurrying up their seed
ing as rapidly as possible. Fortunately,
there were only comparative few who
neglected their seeding. The majority
went ahead with their work as in other
years, and now many of them have large
fields of wheat which in two weeks will be
wavering IN the wind.
The recent rains have wet down the
southeastern part of the state to an aver
age depth of sixteen inches. The winds of
March, which were SO dsagreeable. made
IT necessary for farmers to SOW their seed
deep in order that the dirt would not blow
of. The people Of the state, merchants as
well as farmers. are in the most hopeful
mood, and business in all of the towns has
increased noticeabIy since the rains.
1t is fact that while the aggregate acre.
age OF wheat will not fall much short Of
previous years, the acreage of corn will be
largely increased. In twenty years there
has never been complete failure of the
corn crop. while nearly all of those wears
saw good corn generally over the state.
With this knowledge the tillers of the soil
have concluded that corn and hogs are the
surcst way to prosperity, and they will
this year make more than an ordinary ef
fort b. raise large quantities Of corn. which
will be used in tattening hogs for the mar

SOUTH DAKOTA CROPS.
The Recent Rains Have Made the Out
look Bright.

The Recent Rains Have Made the Out
look Bright.
Director s. w. Glenn of the United
States Weather Bureau at Huron is in re-
ceipt of reports from authorized observers
In forty counties giving crop conditions for
the week as follows:
The temperature during the week has
been above the average, with about the
average amount Of sunshine, but less rain
than usual.
With the exception of some high winds
that probably uncovered little recently
sown grain in localities, the week has been
very favorable for farm work, and wheat
and oats seeding has progressed rapidly.
Wheat seeding is practically finished in
the southern counties, and nearly COM
pleted elsewhere. Oats seeding is far adj
vanced over the southern portion of the
state, and progressing satisfactorily else
where.
The mild weather, taken in connection
with the general favorable condition Of the
soil has promoted termination and growth,
30 that much wheat and some oats are
growing nicely in the more southern coun-
ties and starting we'll elsewhere. The
growing grain shows good stand and
color. Fall planted rye is also starting
we'll.
Wild grass has started finely, is growing
rapidly, and already furnishes fair pastur-
age. A number Of correspondents report
the grass far advanced for the time Of
year, and very promising.
Southern corn has been planted in the
extreme southern counties and the prepar-
alton OF ground for this crop is being
pushed.
Seeding was interrupted somewhat over
the central Black Hills region by the
heavy SHOWS of the last of March, but re-
ports indicate that operations were re-
sumed on or before the 18th inst.
Gardening has begun. The week closes
with field operations generally at a very
satisfactory stage of progress, and ground
in excellent condition, except, possibly, in
a few localities in the northeastern por-
ton OF the state, where rain was needed.

state Drntor,cal Contest.

The state Oratorical contest between
representatives from the different colleges
Of South Dakota, to be held at VermilliOn
May II, is arOusi' 3 great enthusiasm
among the rival schools. This years con-
test is considered peculiarly exciting one,
because it will in all probability decide
who shall keep the famous chalcedony
slab. The slab. which was gwen with the
understanding that the college winning it
three times should keep 1t, has been con-
tested for six times. Yankton has had Il
twice, Mitchell twice, Kedfield once and
Sioux Falls once. Thus 1t will he seen
that if either Mitchell or Yankt0n wins
this year the end is reached in the strug-
gle.
In connection with the Oratorical contest
is held the annual athletic. meet, lasting
for two days, May II and Is. This is
awakening great enthusiasm and the
rivalry between the two schools is quite
intense.
