Reservoirs for Watering Stock.

S6SAA AS 9pSSAs
A number of persons have been
making inquiries regarding the cons
struction of reservoirs on the public
domain for the purpose of watering
stock, etc. remarks the Buffalo Gap
Republican. We have procured a
copy of the regulations concerning
rights of way for canals, bitches and
reservoirs yer the public lands and
reservations. Any person or COM
pany engaged in breeding, grazing,
driving or transporting live stock
may construct reservoirs upon un-
occupied public lands of the United
States, not mineral or otherwise re.
served, for the purpose of furnish
ing water to such live stock, and
shall have control of such reservoir,
under regulations prescribed by the
secretary of the interior, and the
lands upon which the same is con
structed, not exceeding l60 acres.
so long as such reservoir is main
tanned and water kept therein for
such purpose, providing that such
reservoir shall not be fenced and
shall be opened to the free use of
any person desiring to water ami
mails of any kind. Those wishing to
construct reservoirs must file a de-
claratory statement In the land
Office, describing the land where
such reservoir is to be constructed,
state what business engaged in, the
capacity of reservoir in gallons.
After the law has been complied
with the register and receiver of the
local land Office shall forward all
papers, maps and drawings to the
office OF the secretary of the interior
and when approved by him such
land shall be reserved by him from
sale so long as such reservoir is kept
in repair and water kept therein.
During the month Of January of
each year tho owner of such reser-
voir shall file in the local land office
an affidavit to the effect that the
reservoir has been kept in repair
and water kept therein during the
preceding year, and that all the
provisions of the law have been COM
piled with, Upon failure to file such

The Best Thing Out.

The Dain Junior Hay Stackers
and Power Lift Push Rakes are the
greatest labor-saving haying tools
ever invented. They will take the
hay direct from the mower and
build it in a rick to any height de-
sired. These stackers are the only
ones that deliver the hay into the
middle Of the stack from bottom to
top. They are very simple in con
%struction and r a third lighter in
draft than any other stacker made.
The Dain Sweep Rake is the only
rake ever made that will positively
carry the teeth entirely off the
ground when heavily loaded, while
they work so easily that any boy
who a drive a horse can handle
them with ase They are the best.
Don't be persuaded into buying any
other, which dealers may recon-
mend as being Gust as good"
Remember, these machines are
handled exclusively by the Tom
Sweeney Hardware Co., Rapid City.
Others will say they can get them
for you, but we are the manufacture
ers' agents and have the sole agen-
cy for Pennington county and trade
tributary thereto. We have a big
stock of both stackers and rakes-
the genuine Damon hand now and
will be glad to furnish any informa-
ton regarding them.
