Three Departments of the Illinois
COmpany,s Plants Closed.

CHICAGO, June 3.-Three departments
of the Illinois Steel Company's South Chi
cago plan closed down at 6 o'clock this
morning, throwing $500 men out of en-
ployment for an indefinite time. The de-
partments closed are: Open hearth, en-
ploying 1000 men; plate mills, employing
600 men; slab mills, employing 200 men;
gas houses. employing 400 men. No ex-
PLANTATION was given with the order.
No previous intimation Of the action was
made by the company and many of those
who are usually in close touch with its af-
fairs say that they had not the least ink
ling that such action was likely to take
place. There was rumor today that the
remaining departments of the plant will
close down as soon as orders now in hand
are filled, probably on next Sunday
morning. This will throw $500 more men
out of work

Final Proof Instructions

The U. S. land commissioner has
sent TO each land office in Oklahoma
the following instructions in making
final proof Of land.
"Only settlers under the homestead
law upon agricultural lands which
have already been opened to settle
ment acquired prior to the passage Of
this act by treaty or other agreement
from various tribes of Indians are af-
fected by thi act.
This act does not change existing
laws as to the time of su bmitting final
proof and making payment of final
commissions.
Where final proof has heretofore
been made for lands affected by this
act and payment has not been made,
such payment will not now be re-
quirep by you. where payments were
authorized to be made in installments
and partial payment has beer made,
but final proof has not been made, no
other further payment will be re-
quired when the homestead settler
makes his final proof, except the pay
ment of the final commissions and
testimony fees.
Where the right to commute home
stead entries within auy Of the reser-
vations covered by the law has been
heretofore authorized by statute,
homestead settlers may commute their
entries therein in the time and at the
prices Fixed by existing laws.
Entries, where settlement and res
dence are not requisite, do not come
! within the provisions of this act"

A Good Native Grass

Considerable inquiry has been re-
ceived at the experiment station at
saltwater this spring in regard to a
native grass that seems to be gaining
foothold in the territory. There are
two forms of it. One is called the
Texas blue grass and the other the
smooth Texas blue grass. They are
much like the Kentucky blue grass
and are very closely related botanical
ly. They are little coarser than the
Kentucky, but in form of head closely
resem BILE it. The Texas blue grass has
a growth like short wool in the head
among the grains, while the smooth
Texas blue grass does not have it. The
taste is much ike that of Kentucky
blue grass. 1t seems to be relished by
all sorts of grass eating animals. 1t
appears first in a bunch or two here
and there, but soon spreads so as to
cover considerable area. 1t may be
propagated either by seeds or parts of
the plant, but seems to be spreading
without special attention. 1t promises
to be one of the best pasture grasses
for Oklahoma
