Beautiful Custer, thou Queen Of
Awake from Thy dream, thou hast slumbered

Turn not away from the message
he brings.
Knowest not, thou has gold that never was
And riches In store which thy children shall
find.
Who were thy counselors, what did
they say?
Did they tell you my queen thy mines would
not pay?
List not to their croaking, it never
They never have tried them, how could
they know?
Twas the voice OF the stranger who stupidity
Thy own true miners can tell
the best.
IT'S true thou hast cattle and true thou hast
And strong sons around thee who are will
Ing 10 toll.
But toilsome and dreary thy future would
Were this all the wealth that belongeth to

Trust not alone to the farm and the
flock,
Encourage thy sons to delye deep in the

And science shall help them unravel the
strand,
Revealing the secrets that nature has
planned.
The key OF the chemist has unlocked
the door,
And thy miners shall show thee thy treasure
In store.
When fortune stands ready TO yield thee
so much,
And 1t needs but the magical charm Of thy

Stretch forth thy hand thou queen of the

Thy sun Is just rising, fair Custer all

Good heavy work horses are in de-
mand in the northwest this spring, and
desirable teams are bringing fancy
prices, says the Sioux City Journal OF
recent date. Three years ago horses
were plentiful on a sluggish m rket, and
breeders, Disguised with the low prices,
stopped breeding. This and the fact
that most Of the best horses were ship
ped east has caused a scarcity. Teams
that two or three years ago could be
purchased for 500 nov bring 5000. For
several weeks men have been in Sioux
City buying up work horses. They say
they never saw horses SO hard to get or
prices so high. The scarcity will tempt
the breeder and in a few years another
crop Of horses will he on the market and
send the price down again.
