BAD LANDS ARE GOOD

While in Minneapolis recently Err
nest Seton Thompson, the traveller,
naturalist and author-lecturer, pre-
dicted that the Bad Lands of North
Dakota would become known as n
of the best wealth-producing sections
of the west. Mr.. Thompson has
dome" the Bad Lands thoroughly.
He says the soil in many portions is
very productive and that nature in no
part of the world has designed such
ideal conditions for stock raising.
He is confident that the Bad Lands will
greatly aid in making western North
Dakota one Of the greatest live stock.
sections in the world. s
The Bad Lands comprise from 5000
to 5000 square miles. Over 100, 600
head of live stock feed within the linn
its of this region and each year from
1900 to $4,000 beef cattle are shipped
to market from the herds which roam
the hills and valleys. This region
has always been the refuge and the
feeding ground Of thousands Of ami
mails. Until the ruthless extermina-
ton of the buffalo they were as num-
erous among its hills as the domestic
cattle Of today. Even now the trails
made by these animals, with occa-
sional piles of bleaching bones, mark
what was once their favorite ranges.
Deer are yet plentiful and the outlying
prairies are feeding grounds for thous-
ands of antelope.
Not the least remarkable feature Of
the Bad Lands is the inexhaustible
supply Of coal. At the base of the
cliffs it crops out in veins from fifteen
to twenty feet in thickness. There
is sufficient coal in the Bad Lands
alone to supply the state of North Da-
kota with fuel for 100 years to come.
Far down at the feet Of the cliffs are
water courses trucking towards the
Little Missouri, through thousands of
acres of level bottom land, where nu-
titious grasses thrive. Timber Of
fair size and quality fringes these
STRAINS. 1t is along these creeks that
ranches have been constructed. The
cattle are turned loose upon the!
grasses which do not loose their
nutritiye value in any season of the
year. Protecting cliffs and hills fur
nish a refuge for the stock during any
storm.

Speculation Take Hold of Market and
RusIness shows Eject.

NEW YORK, April 4-Today's stock
market gave un~mistakable evidence Of a
SUBSTANTIAL recruiting OF the speculative
element. The movement was a good deal
OF a mystery both as to its motive and as
market gossip attributed II to the Same sam
group of western capitalists to which
many recent movements have been attrib-
uted and which has been supposed to be
concerned In the present large speculative
operations I'm the grain markets. The days
operations were on a far larger scale than
anything in the recent history of the stock
market; The dealings in st. Paul and
Union Pacific were wildly reminiscent OF
the days of the boom of last year. II the
dealings in these stocks are added to those
In Louisville 4 Nashville, and in Southern
Pacific, II will be found that considerably
more than one-third of the days aggregate
transactions are accounted for. 1t was not
until late In the day, in fact, that much
OF the list. Such stocks as the New York
public utilities, New York Central and
Pennsylvania were then brought forward
with spasmodic advances. In the final hour
selling to take profits made heavy inroads
upon prices and reduced all of the principal

to account for the sudden demand for

tinental railroad systems. Rather, the
movement seemed based upon an assump-
tion, a time OF doubt and uncertainty over
the outcome of the year which is prac-
tically past, with the largest requirements

dition from the winter to start the season
with. To account for any such total of
sales as those recorded in the principal ac-
tive stocks today allowance must be made
for the sale and resale many times of iden-
tical holdings. Tn general reaction at the
end of the day also points to the tentative
character of the speculation. There was
active realizing, among the specialties re-
Gently advanced, conspicuously Sugar and
Colorado Fuel. Neither was there lacking
the wide advances in obscure specialties
which have recently characterized the
market. There was no change in the stu
alton of the money market except as indi-
Gated by a loss of cash by the banks for
the week of over 100000 to the sub
treasury, which is offset by a gain on the
interior movement of less than a million
dollars. The frmness of sterling exchange
and the further decline in Paris rates of
sterling point to exports next week. Thu
local money market was quiet, however,
and the forecast of the bank statement
made little impression on the stock mar
ket. There was an active demand for
bonds for which there was a good open
market all day. Total sales, par value,
