shosl,one Reservation.

It contains 1,140,O00 acres Of land, q
third of which is adaptable for agri-
cultural purposes and the remainder
for grazing, stock and dairy pursuits.
1t is bounded on the east by the Big
Horn river and on the south by the
Wind river, which, together with nu-
merous small streams and springs fur
nishes ample water supply to settlers
who will gobble up this valuable tract
the moment Uncle Sam gives the sig
nal.
Never in the history Of the world
has there been such demand for
public land. The great rank and file
of Americans who labor with their
brains and Drawn seem to have sud-
denly discovered that land is the foun-
dation of all wealth. The serious mis-
understanding between capital and la
Dor in the large trade centers has been
making converts rapidly for the gos-
pei of free homes, pure air and indie
pendence. On account of the indus
trial depression in the great European
trade centers, many home seekers
have been attracted across the Allan
tic, who, after a thorough investiga-
ton of the situation, have crossed in
to Uncle Sans domain, filed on a

comercial center in South Dakota.
These two great mining towns and
many smaller communities, including
Whitewood, Rapid City, Sturgis and
Hot Springs, are within a few hours
ride by rail of this great irrigating
proposition, and will furnish home
market for thousands upon thousands
Of dollars worth of farm produce
yearly.
Belle Fourche is the largest cattle
shipping point in the great Northwest.
Thousands Of head Of range cattle
are fattened here for market, ana
thousands of head are fed in this vi

this great irrigation undertaking, has

Pierre to Rapid City.
An important extension OF the Chi
cago & Northwestern railway that will
aid materially in developing this irri-
eating proposition is now being com.
pleted between Pierre, the capital OF
South Dakota, and Rapid City. This
new line will not only aid in attract
ing the homeseeker to the many In
ducements offered in the irrigating dis
trict, but will open up millions of
acres of agricultural and grazing land
subject to homestead entry in South
Dakota west of the Missouri river.
This new line, which extends across
the entire western half of South Da-
! kota, will form junction with ths

lars in gold and silver. Knowing ones
claim to know where gold and silver
ores are stored in the Owl Creek
mountains in the northern part Of the
reservation.
On the border line of the reserve,
in the northeast corner, is the town OF
Thermopolis. Here the United States
government will in all probability
erect a soldiers and sailors santa
rum on account of the wonderful
curative qualities found in the extern
sive hot springs located here.
Indications that point to petrole-
um pool near Lander will no doubt be
thoroughly followed up as soon as the
railroad is completed. Beds of coal,
mica, asphaltum, petroleum, tin, build
ing stone, and iron ore are found in
this vicinity, which increase the in
ducements offered the home seeker,
and create possibilities the results OF
which no one can estimate until the
mines are developed. The reservation
abounds in fish of all kinds, and big
game, such as deer, elk, bear, and an
telope.
Town lots have been selling rapidly
ever since the Northwestern surveyed
their line. Golden opportunities await
the business, professional and labor1ng
man in twenty of the new town sites
now building up between Casper and
Lander.
Government Land Irrigation.
In June, 1902, the government
passed law known as the national
reclamation act, for the purpose OF
providing large tracts Of Western land

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an infamed
condition Of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is
inflam9d you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when 1t Is
entirely closed, deafness Is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
s:royed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is MOTH
ing but an infamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.

completion of the Pathfinder dam and

found to be capable Of producing won

reservoir will cover thirty miles Of ter

fact that success obtained by dishonesty

many insurance directors had taken
any real interest in the expenditures

cared about the enormous sums charged
as legal expenses. in times of prosperity
they had supposed officers would do

TIMBER IN DEMAND.
Entries In Lewiston District Are Be-
coming More Frequent.

There is revival of interest in

and a marked increase i'm the number
Of stone and timber filings at the land
office. says the Lewiston Teller. Af-
ter the rush of a year or two ago there
has been a decided lull which is now
giving way to Il general activity.
The cause is attributed to the fact
that new corporations have come into
the field and there is growing mar
ket for timber. Sales have been
numerous in the past few months and
locations placed on file show that
every available acre of timber land is
being appropriated.
Receiver CARLY of the land office
says that the increased number of
filings and proofs offered ut the Of
five is very marked. The business of
the office is very heavy in conse-
quenCe.
