The reason this great plateau is fitted

that its surface is twice as high above

It is over 5000 feet above sea level.
This great altitude gives 1t temperate

teachers and employees are evidently well
qualified and are earnest in their work.
Like many other boarding schools. how
ever, found very marked overcrowding
IN the dormitories. The beds were placed
close together. with only narrow pas
sage between. In this way 20 or more
Indian children we're sleeping in rooms,
which, In my judgment, ought not to
have more than three or four ct the
utmost. For healthy white children l
should consider this very imprudent;; for
Indian children, tainted with COM
municable disease, such overcrowding
In dormintories is evidently dangerous.
And is 1t not plainly culpable?
II noticed in one school room q boy
with q bandage on hiA head. Scrcfula. l
was told, was the trouble: on others I
saw the scars where scrofulous sores
had been healed. Evidently, as among
other tribes, these Indians were marked
~ tainted with tuberculosis. Under
these conditions, with such overcrowd-
ing in dormitories. boarding school be-
comes q hotbed for the propagation Of
disease. For q time the children may ap-
pear robust and healthy, but in q few
years the hotbed does its work; the dis

IDENTIFY to blame In the matter. Other
conditions, it should be said, also help
to make this ENORMOUS death rate.
at should be stated, too, In this con-

In response to the requests Of citi-
sens Of North Dakota, the United
States geological survey has been con-
dneing preliminary Investigation Of
certain sections Of tho state, with .
viswof ascertaining the advisibility Of
ooastructing irrigation works An
especially important piece OF recon-
Nuisance work has. been completed on
both sides Of the Yellowstone river
nom Glendive, Mont, to its confluence
IN North Dakota with the Missouri.
The preliminary survey is almost
completed, and when finished, the
practicability of the project viii be de-
termined. Tho rapid increase Of set
tiers in the Western, or arid, portion Of
North Dakota in the last three years
has not been unnoticed by the survey,
whose efforts are being directed to se-
cure for them an ample supply OF wa
ter against the 1Dcurrance of INSULT
Gent rainfall. Owing to the unusual
problems presented, the work must
necessarily be slow, as it will require
very careful consideration Of methods
and costs.
