A stock company has been formed t
within the past few days, says the Stock |
Growers News, of Fort Pierre, for the |
purpose of furnishing amusements and |
a place of rest and recreation at what
is now known as the Buffalo Park, six
miles north of this city Oh the estate of |
scotty Philip.
The company starts out with cash
capital of $4,000. The officers are.
James Philip, president. b. A. Cum

The location is an ideal olies8as a.,
enterprise of this kind The slopes nss
gently back from the beautiful tim
bered strip next to the old Missouri to
a range of grassy hills mile or more
distant, where ranges the finest herd OF
North American Bison now to be found
in the world, on their native range, en-
closed by several miles .of woven wire
| fencing.
AT the home of the Philip family
known as the Buffalo ranch, is found
the best of all the hundreds of artesian
wells in the state which spouts forth
five hundred gallons per minute of pure
water, clear as a crystal, at the hitherto
unheard of temperature of LOG degrees
Fahrenheit.
a careful analysis of this water made
by eminent authorities, shows it to be
the equal in every respect and in some
ways superior to the famous waters OF
the Hot Springs of Arkansas and tho
Hot Springs of South Dakota WHOSE
wonderful medical properties have beer
fully demonstrated too often to need
any comment from us.
The character of the soil at the loca
tion of this new pleasure resort is suci
that it makes no difference how mucl
it rains it never gets muddy, We know
this to be fact from our own persona
experience, as we have been there i'll !
way and in a time that gave it thorough
test.

thick mat OF buffalo grass, and afte

is to have genuine wild west show o.

A cellar under a house is not only

one with the natural earth? Some
say SO. AS far as cleanliness and rat

winter and its coolness In summer
are largely dependent upon the tenn
perature Of the soil beneath the cellar,
