WILL CONDUCT EXPERIMENTS.
Government TO Spend Millions on .
Large Farm Near Belle Fourche.

Government to Spend Millions on .
Large Farm Near Belle Fourche.
Preparations are being made for
the establishment Of government ex-
perimentaI farm In the area to be irri-
gated in the Belle Fourche district, in
which undertaking the, United States
government will expend several mil
lions Of dollars, the money for the
purpose having been appropriated by
congress.
Engineer Walter, who has charge Of
the irrigation project, was recently Of
ficially advised that the government
had decided to set aside eighty acres
Cor experimental purposes. The ex-
perimental farm will be under the di-
rect supervision Of the agricultural de-
partment. The experiments will be
conducted by the agricultural depart
ment. and the expense will be paid
from a fund other than that providing
for the immense irrigation project
which the government has undertaken
in this district.
1t Is believed the results to be ac-
complished by the experimental farm
will prove of much benefit to farmers
who will occupy the tracts IN the irri-
gated area. Not only is the subject 81
irrigation new to practically all of the
new settlers, but to very large pro
portion of other farmers who reside in
this portion Of the state.
The work to be done under the SUI
pervision of the agricultural depart
ment viii prove all the more valuable
TO the farmers of this region because
of the local character of the work. The
experiments will be carried on at a
point where the farmers in this entire
region can watch the progress being
made and the methods employed, thus
profting to the fullest extent.
The best methods Of irrigating the
land, and the best and most profitable
crops to raise and other matters Of
vital Importance to the farmers Of this
region In general viii be thoroughly
demonstrated On the experimental
farm.
There is not the slightest doubt that
the result Of the experiments will
prove Invaluable and assist greatly in
the development of the immense area
of agricultural land which composes
what is known ais the Belle Fourche
irrigation project Of the government.

LOOKING AFTER INDIAN MONEY.
Can Money Belonging TO indians De
Levied to Satisfy clainna.


The United States authorities or
South Dakota are preparing to wage
an energetic fight in an Important test
case involving the legal status OF
funds arising from the sale OF inherit
ed Indian lands. which Is now pend
ing In the state circuit court Of Rob
erts county. and which win be tried
during next month.
The test case was instituted by
Sheriff Minder, of Roberts county, the
First National bank OF Sisseton being
the defendant. The creditors Of Sis
seton Sioux Indian, learning that the
Indian had deposited In the bank funds
derived from the sale of inherited
land Of which he was ore of the heirs,
levied on sufficient amount Of the
money to liquidate their claims. The
bank refused to recognize the levy in
the absence of a decision of the courts
defining the status of such funds.
The federal authorities will defend
the bank fhen the case comes up for
trial, on the ground that money de-
rived by Indian heirs from the sale Of
inherited land is trust funds, and not
subject to levy By county or State
authorities.
The parties who are seeking TO Sc
cure possession Of a part of the money
deposited by the Indian who is indebt
ed to them viii maintain that such
funds must be treated the same as
funds belonging to white men, and can
be levied upon the same as in the case
of white man.
The Indians of the Northwest have
during the past year or two received
many thousands Of dollars from the
sale of inherited land and because Of
this and the fact that many Of them
owe considerable sums, the outcome OF
the case pending in Roberts county is
awaited with great interest.
The federal statutes provide that
when inherited land Is sold the pro
ceeds shall be placed in a bank to the
credit Of each hesr in proportion to
the amount each is entitled to. The
heirs are permitted To draw from their
account not to exceed the sum of $40
per month, subject to the approval Of
the Indian agent or other official in
charge Of them.
When the approval of the agent or
other proper official is obtained, the
heirs can check out the money in the
sum stated In the case OF minor heirs,
the checks must be made out by their
recognized and legal guardians.

TEST or WATER RIGHTS.
Clash With Homestead Entries West
of the Missouri.

VI TIE MtoS0uFta
During the last two years large
number Of what are known as water
rights have been filed in the country
west of the Missouri river These
filings are under the provisions of
law which requires storage of water
to certain amount each year, but
which water must be open to public
use. Those who have made such fill
ings will probably be called upon to
defend their rights to the tracts, as
claimants are demanding the right to
place homestead filings On the same
tracts.
As the water rights are only in the
way of declaratory statements, and
the title does not pass from the gov.
eminent, only being vested In the
claimant SO long ais he complies with
the Law In regard to water storage,
the test case which has been brought
in Lyman county will be watched with
ia great deal of interest.
The authorities have as yet been
unable to solve the mystery surround
ing the tragic death of an indian
named William Bean, Jr.. ait the great
con vocation Of Episcopal Indians, just
held at White Swan Bean, who was
about twenty, left his tent with shot
gun ia short time a report was
heard, and when the young Indian was
found II was discovered he had been
shot ia the region Of the heart. IN a
conscious interval he said Ste saw an
Indian coming towards him from some
bushes near his tent, and that without
q word the strange Indian shot at him
and then took 10 his heels.

The Ghost School,"

School in the Lamson district, taught by
Miss Nettye Robbins, closed Friday, and
in the evening unique and decidedly
pleasing entertainment, called 1.-THE Ghost
school," was given by the pupils and
teacher for the purpose of raising money
to procure flag for the school building,
pole having been already promised by
Albert Tatro. There was a good attend
ance, and the proceeds from the admis-
sion fees amounted to S4.25, which will
serve as a nucleus for the proposed fund.
Master Ernest Hubbard, flag in hand,
made the Introductory speech, explaining
the object in view, and then a ghostly
company appeared wrapped in sheets and
capped by pillow-cases with two ends
wired to stand upright like ears. They
moved noiselessly on shoeless feet encased
in white stockings and not a word was
spoken above a weird whisper.
Miss Robbins, capped and gowned like
the pupils, filed the role Of teacher, while
the eight little ghosts were Harry and
Lizzie 'Tatro. Mamie Hatch. Eunice Derby,
Fred and Jessie Abbey, Clara Smith and
Grace Tatro, the tall spectre who stalked
about in chilly dignity being Ruth Morrill,
spliced out with broom.
