amount Of fine golden particles have
been found in the sand composing the
bars and the islands in the river, and
even along the shore. The gold, being
heavier than the sand, naturally sinks
to the bottom once it gets out of the
current or meets with an obstruction
in the river, and is later brought forth
by placer mining.
Early this spring two prospectors,

1t is the belief of these prospectors,

furnishes all of the gold that comes
down the river, and is eventually found
in the sand. They expect, they say
that their work will take them into

SIOUX FALLS, S. D.. July 9.-James
Howard, who conducts sheep ranch
in the interior of the ceded Sioux lands
between the Missouri river and the
Black Hills, has made a remarkable
record in sheep raising. Last year he
purchased 600 yearling ewes. He gave
the flock close attention during the
unusually severe weather of last win
ter, with the result that he lost only
three head. From the 900 sheep he
this summer had lamb crop of 511,
and the receipts from the wool which
he has just sold amounted to over
$500.
Martin Johnson. one of the big sheep
raisers of the ceded lands, has just
marketed his wool crop. which brought
him $500. Last year he put up 400
tons of hay. This year he expects to
put up 1000 tons so he will be prepared
for emergencies should next winter be
a severe one. During the winter John
son fed $500 sheep. Last year he was
laughed at by adjoining ranchmen for
putting up so much hay but had 1t
not been for his foresight he would
probably have lost his entire flock. as
the winter was the worst he experience
ed in ten years.
