St. Paul, Minneapolis, Sioux City,
Des Moines, Omaha, Fremont, the
Black Hills and other points in the
west, through to Bonesteel on the
eastern reservation border.
The Shoshone or Wind River
Reservation is in the high plateau
lands of Central Wyoming, bounded
on the south by the Wind River,
and on the north by the Owl Creek
mountains, while the Big Horn
drains the eastern portion of the
lands that are to be opened.
These lands are to be reached
via the Chicago & Northwestern
R'y to Casper, thence by stage to
Lander, or via the Chicago, Union
Pacific and North Western Line to
Rawlins.
The treaty has been made by
which the Shoshone lands north
OF the Wind River are to be opened
to settlement, and awaits early
Congressional action. Govern
ment lands of good quality are
much scarcer than they were at
one time, and the interest evi-
denced by this announcement OF
new lands to be opened to the
settler is very great. A heavy
movement westward OF those who
desire to avail themselves of the
United States Homestead act will
doubtless begin as a result of the
announcement that these lands are
to be opened.

AGE PENSIONS.

Congressman Burke has received
a number of inquiries from old
soldiers over the state, as to the
necessity of their action to secure
the benefits of the cage pension
act" The general trend of the
inquiries being as to nesd of max.
ing application under the law. In
regard to that he has received a
letter from the pension bureau, in
which the following ruling is given:
"a pensioner whose name is on
the pension rolls under provisions
of section 2, of the act of June Fl,
1890, as amended by act of May g,
1900, and who desires to have his
claim increased on account of age,
must file in this bureau an applica.
ton under said acts, and if upon
consideration of the claim, it is
found that he is in receipt of a
pension less than his age would
warrant, he may be increased from
date of filing his declaration in this
bureau, to an amount that would
be warranted by the age blishee
at the date of filing such declara

Two Million Acres to be Opened for
Settlement,

Almost half a million acrss of
government land in the Rosebud
Indian Reservation, in the south
eastern part of South Dakota, and
one and one-half million acres on
the Shoshone Reservation in Wyo-
ming are to be opened for home
stead settlement at an early day.
Registration for the Rosebud lands
will probably begin August and
the final allotment take place a
month later. The Rosebud reser-
walton lands arc we'll w1tered by
the Missouri, Niobrara and White
Rivers and are situated in the
great corn telt, where adjacent
farm lands are selling at from s25,

10 shlllings per gramme. One ton
of it would bring to its owner over
half million of money. But some
of the natural compounds of zir-
COMA are splendid gems worth E2
per CARAT, or $500 per ounce.
Then there is molbdenum, which
forms most remarkable compound
with both steel and nickel. Molv-
bdenum nickel-steel cannot be
beaten for hardness, and yet at the
same time it is exceedingly ductile,
and a fine alloy for Wire drawing.
Large cranks of great strength are
made of it, propeller shafts, heavy
guns, rifle barrels, boilers for tor
pedo boats end armor-piercing
shells. 1t is, or was some time
ago, worth 80 per pound weight.
Thalium, discovered by Sir Will
liam the curious property of hard
ening steel, and it is much used in
armor plate. So small a quantity
aa one pound, added to 200 pounds
of steel, increases its strength from
seven tons and a half to thirteen
tons per square inch.
Thalium, discovered by Sir
William Crookes, was up to a very
recent date priced at the rate of
$4,000 pounds per ton, and is
therefore worth searching for. 1t
is very soft and can be cut with
unife. One of its curious proper
ties is that it makes mark on pa
per like a lead pencil, which is
blue at first, then turns yellow, and
in day or two fades away alto
gether.
A metal whose supply has never
yet equaled the demand, although
it was discovered nearly two GEN.
turies ago-1735-is platinum.
Only about four tons and a half
was found in the year 1890, chiefly
in Russia, and it was sold at the
rate of L145,ooo per ton. The
value of platinum arises from it's
resistance to heat AMI acids. 1t
does not melt until a temperature
CT $3.50 degrees Fahrenheit is
reached, and is therefore most use
full in making chemical apparatus,

RARE METALS CONTAINED IN
THE EARTH.
HIDDEN TREASURE
Some Of the Uses to Which They
Are Pot Wonderful
Valuables.
Secreted somewhere in the earth

Secreted somewhere in the earth
perhaps in the readers garden
are metals of many kinds, which
are called the "rare metals" be-
cause so far they have been found
only in trifling quantities. They
must be present somewhere in large
quantities, and it is only a case OF
search and you will find.
Altogether there are thirty to
forty of these rare earths which
fetch a big price in the market.
Many of them are bought merely
for museums or scientific expert
ment, but others are very valuable
substances commercially.
Uranium, for instance, from
which the magic element radium
has been separated, is worth, when
chemically pure, over 61So per
pound. A ton of 10 per cent ore
would fetch between $50 and z66o.
X X 4 +
Uranium is very valuable in the
manufacture of gun metal for heavy
cannon and armor plate. 1t gives
a beautiful Aorescent green hue to
glassware and a fine, velvety black
to porcelain.
AS everyone is aware, this prec-
ious metal is found in Cornwall
pitchblende.
How is anyone to recognize it
i, when found? That is not an easy
matter. But there should be nc
great difficulty in recognizing many
The Black Hills union and western stock review. [volume] (Rapid City, S.D.) 1904-19??, 1904-06-03

of the rare metals. Each responds
of course: to tests peculiar to itself
and one of the tests for a uranium
compound is that. when mixed with
a little borax and nlicrocosnic salt
and placed in the familiar blowpipc
fame, it forms a green bead in the
inner flame, and yellow bead in
the outer fame, which becomes
yellowish-green on cooling.
Some of the metals used IN max
ing incandescent light are thorium
and cerium, or, rather, their oxides
--thoria and ceria. Cerium was
discovered century ago (18o3)
and yet it is still rare. 1t is twice
as dear as uranium. Thorium, an
iron-gray metal, was found in 1928.
Both are much sought for, with
the result that the latter has fallen
in price during the past ten years
from $50 to only a few shlllings
per pound.
The Black Hills union and western stock review. [volume] (Rapid City, S.D.) 1904-19??, 1904-06-03

A curious thing in connection
with these metals is that the brill
liant white incandesccnt light which
they give when mixed is not natural
to either of them alone. Either
them separately gives yellowish
light of very little power. Cerium
has other uses. In medicine it is
cure for hysteria and seasickness.
And it is also used in the develop
ment of aniline black.
Another very valuable and rare
metal used for lighting purposes is
zirconlum. This was discovered
us years ago, yet no one has yet
had the good fortune to find such
deposit as would make him a
millionaire. 1t is present in sever
al strange named minerals, such as
eudiolyte, polymignite, hyacinth,
etc. One valuable property of this
rare metal is that very intense heat
does not destroy it, Hence 1t is
used to make the cylinders of the
Drummond light for lighthouses,
being made to glow by the tremen.

fame. The cylinder remains az
