Fort stevenson's Wonder

It is expected that the Fort Stevenson
military reservation will be surveyed this
spring and opened up to settlement a
short time thereafter. Judge Bowen of
Bismarck has the surveying contract,
which will guarantee conn petent. work by
skilful civil engineer. The finest site
and natural place for experimental test
n irrigation to be found anywhere in
the entire West is on the bench land near
Fort Stevenson. An incline pleateau of
four square miles-stretching from the
river to the bluffs is an ideal piece of
land that We speak of and one that early
drew attention as the ideal for testing the
system of windmill irrigation, 80 much in
voge just now on some of the streams in
western Kansas. Low windmills with
some extra contrivences are the kind of
water carriers used. Fort Stevenson,
as an experimental station for large
acreage of military gardens in constant
and successful use during a succession of
rs years,needs no special irrigation for or.
diuary crop raising-but it is hay the peo.
pie want here now-and to raise good cut
of hay the land must needs be thoroughly
saturated with moisture.

Tho Art Exhibition,

The ar. exhibition given under the
auspices of the Washburn school Thurs
day evening was an agreeable dlsappoint-
ment to many-as it was generally sur
mised that it was an April fool get up.
On the contrary, nothing could have been
more acceptable, and it is generally ac-
knowledged that for variety-a change
from the usual tren d-nOthing could have
afforded more amusement or given better
satisfaction. The art exhibits, to be
sure, we're not modern-they were not
productions of the famous artists of the
day-but the applications we're appropri-
ate and decidedly ludicrous. Much credit
is due Mrs. Welsh and those who we're in
strumental in producing the entertain
ment and providing refreshments.

Three Dollars BO unity.

The new wolf bounty law-now. in
vogue-gives a bounty of $S for each
grey or "buhalo" wolf or prairie wolf
killed within the state.
Section of the Law reads as follows:
Any person killing any of the aforesaid
animals to obtain the bounty thereon
shall within ninety days from the date of
the killing exhibit, or cause to be ex-
hibited, the skin of the said animals. in
Guiding the tail and skin from the fore
head. embracing both ears, to the county
auditor in said county in which said AM
NAL or animals we're killed, and shall at
the same time Als with the county auditor
an affidavit setting forth that he killed or
caused to be killed the animal or animals
from which the skins we're taken; that
the same were killed within the bounds of
county to whose auditor the same are pre-
sented; and the auditor shall, before is
suing the certifcatsy: thereafter provided;
for, require statement of two resident
taxpers Of the county that they are
acquainted with the person presenting
skin or skins, and that the best of their
knowledge and belief the animal or ami
mails from winch the skin or skins were
taken we're killed within the limits of
said county. 50,
The county auditor gives written
order for wolf SKINS ON the state andi-
tor, who in turn gives warrant to the
holder on the state fund created for this
purpose.
As the county auditors have had no in
structions it is not likely that they will
be prepared for few weeks to Issue wolf
bounty certificates, but under the provi-
sions of tho law the skins can be held for
ninety days.
