INDIAN FARMING.
REDSKINS PROVING A SUCCESS IN
AGRICULTURAL LIFE.
Ninety nine Per Cent of tho Indians
Who Return from school Either do
Nothing or Go Iuto Farm I.ife-StOic
TOiIers.

The American Indian is OF that
physique which makes a good farmer.
and the wonder is that they were not
sent into the fields ere this instead OF
making them go to school. says a
writer in Harper's We-kly. Education
fs essential but 9 per cent OF those
who return home from school either
do nothing or go into farm life The
other one per cent become professional
men. Within the past few years the
strides made by the American red man
In farming have been remarkable.
More Indians are taking to the plough
than the public would believe. But it
Is also true that fully 20 per cent OF
them, after having passed through a
good training school, will return to the
reservation and go on the downward
trail again. 1t is quite easy to teach
An Indian. but another matter to make
him remember and obey that which
ne has been taught. One may travel
through any reservation in the west
to-day and find many Indians at work
In the fields. 1t may seem odd to see
a blanketed buck hoeing corn or driv-
Ing binder. but such things are quite
common in New Mexico. Arizona, Da-
kota and Oklahoma. In Oklahoma vast
fields OF wheat are cultivated by full
bloods, but they are called civilized
Indians. for the reason that they be-
long to the Five Tribes. T have rid
den for a whole day through vast
Held OF wheat owned and cultivated
by full-blood Cherokees. They live in
palatial homes. and are hospitable
people. Industrious and progressive. 1t
was about 1887 that the United Stat es
government first came to the conclu-
sion that manual labor would exercise
greater influence toward civilization
than anything else. That was the date
when their first lands were allotted to
them. 1t was then believed that the
proper way to go about teaching In
dians to farm was to place them on
quarter section of good land, saying,
You must get living out OF this or
strave." In few years they found the
untutored savage quite willing to
starve or fight. In most cases he was
most anxious to fight. Some of the
most atrocious crimes have been COM
mitted by these same border redskins
who had been placed on certain tract
OF land and told to work it. 1t was
after all this that the government
learned the Indian had to be taught.
So after years OF patient teaching, red
men in farm life have become a matter
of course. It is their shortest cut to
civilization. In the Sioux nation, once
battle-ground for the widest Indians
on the western plains, one now sees
well-developed farms with good crops.
Red men who have fought in many
deadly battles now march stoically be-
hind the plough and harrow. In tn
United States to-day there are 3S,9OO
Indians who earn their own living by
farm work Last year they sold their
farm products for a combined sum O
$l.408.S65. over and above the ex-
penses Of living. This was nearly $40
per capita. which is very good consid-
erlng the fact that so per cent of them
have never before farmed an acre OF
land

Yes, August Flower still has the lar

mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostration or Heart failure, etc
They used August Flower to clean out
the system and stop fermentation of
undigested food, regulate the action
of the liver, stimulate the nervous and

that is all they took when feeling dull
