mated so that locations in any of the
districts may be definitely described.

six districts, designated as Little Mis-
souri,, Grand river. Moreau river, Sui
phur creek, Belle Fourche and Elk
creek. The Little Missouri extends
north and south along the western
line of the state in Butte county, and
Sulphur creek Is laid out on the creek
by that name in eastern Meade county,
extending down to the reservation line
on Cherry creek: the other districts in
that division being along the streams
which give them their names, the d.
viding lines being along the divides
between the streams.
Water Division No. 2 Is divided Into
much smaller districts, being Battle
creek, Fall river, Cheyenne and Bad
river, in Stanley county, and White
river in Lyman, nothing being done on
the Indian reservations.

ton of the state under the provisions

gineer Lea he has been receiving ap-
plications for water filings, and now

ADDS BIG AREA TO TAX ROLLS.
New Land Amounting to $4,000 Acres
Reported.

New Land Amounting to $4,000 Acres
Reported.
The state auditors Office has re-
ceived reports from all the land Offices
in the state showing the new lands to
be brought under taxation this year
through claimants securing title from
tho government by final proof. '
The Mitchell district, through the
business in Charles Mix and Gregory
counties, shows the largest number,
with 99S final proofs, of which STA
were made in Charles Mix and Greg
DRY counties alone, leaving the rest
scattered in the counties in the whole
of the southeastern part of the state,
which is covered by that district.
The Chamberlain district was next,
with SCI, of which 762 were in Lyman
county. Watertown was next with
1926; Aberdeen, 1876; Rapid City, 331;
Huron, 245, and Pierre, with but 1913.
The total number Of new tracts to be
listed was $3.50.
That the title practically all has
passed from the government in the
southeastern tier In the state is shown
in the fact that no new lands were
added in this manner in the counties
of Bon Homme, Hutchinson, Lake, Lin
coin, Minnehaha, Turner and Union;
and only one proof each was made in
the counties of Clay. Douglas, McCook,
Miner, Moody and Yankton.
This new land brings $4,000 acres
more real estate under taxation in the
state this year than for last. The larg-
est number of proofs in any n coun-
ty was Lyman, with 772, Gregory show.
ing an addition of 53S tracts. Within
the next year the claims which are be-
ing filed in Stanley county will be in
the final proof list, and that county
will show a heavy gain in real estate.

STEEL BELT ORNAMENTS.
About Three Out of Five of Modish
Belts Have Steel Adornment
in Some Form.

A vast amount of art and ingenuity
has been lavished upon the belts and
girdles this season, and the results
justify the effort; for not in many a
day have the belts been so attractive
or so tempting.
Succumbing to temptation in the
matter of this little costume detail
mean in many cases serious inroads
upon ones purse; for, as is usually the
case, delightful effects imply high
prices, and though the simple and in
expensive leather belt is still with us
the models that are likely to tempt a
woman to covetousness are not of the
simple sort.
The most striking thing about the
belt display this spring is the promi-
nence of steel in the general scheme.
Fully three out of five of the hand
soonest belts are beautified with steel
and steel beads. or paillettes are used
upon the girdles of silk as we'll as
upon those Of leather.
Wide girdles of silk elastic which,
in black and white, were shown here
at Christmas time are now offered In
all the modish shades. The corded
silk elastic has the effect of highly
lustrous corded ribbon, and takes the
colors beautifully.
Large fat buckles hold the girdle to
it's full width in the back. but the front
buckle is usually much smaller. The
firm elastic moulds itself to the figure
and the buckles are slightly curved to
fiji the waist curve. In the new ecre-
visse, celise and brilliant red tones this
belt is particularly attractive, and in
the grays and dull yellow or tan COL
orings 1t Is ever more chic,

How TO Brush the Hair

There is a right and a wrong way of
brushing the hair, as there is of doing
everything else. First, part down the
center above the forehead, and give it
20 brisk strokes on either side. Di-
vide it down the back, and repeat the
same process. Next brush it back
from the ears, giving it always the 20
strokes. Persevere with this treat
ment, and your hair will soon become
soft and glossy and repay the trouble
taken with it.

THE CZARINA AND HER CARICATURES OF
OYAMA AND KURoKI
little father" Almost every impor-
tant member of the court had suffered
except the car, and he repeatedly
urged her to try her hand at Il sketch
Of himself. At last she yielded, and the
cartoon appeared. 1t represented the
emperor crowned and bearing his scep-
ter, but seated in baby carriage and
drawn with a thread by his mother.
The sketch caused much constrained
amusement among the courtlers, but
the car professed TO be unable to see
the point and was anything but pleas
ed with the production, it is said.
The czarina is accomplished in many
ways. She can paint as we'll as sketch
and is an expert wood carver. AS a
Christmas gift for the infant car
owitZ last winter she made toy which
is an exact model of the cars favor
tie chalet, or summer palace, in the
imperial pleasure grounds attached to
Tsarskoe-Selo palace. The model, which
is beautifully carved in wildwood, is
built up of eighty-four separate parts
and can be pulled 10 pieces by the
imperial baby. Perhaps it has already
been pulled to pieces so often as to
have lost its semblance to chalet.
The czarina can row and swim and
Is fond of horses and horseback riding.
She spends n great deal of her time
playing with her children, but is not
unmindful of the duties which pertain
to her high position, and has given
much study TO questions relating TO the
condition of the poor. She has read all
and placed herself at the head OF the
body charged with the arrangements
for poor law relief in Russia. Her in
fluence with her husband has been in
the direction of reform, but the reac.
tionary and autocratic influences of the
round the ruler have often prevented
her ideas from receiving any practical
effect. Perhaps IL was n realization OF
this fact that once prompted her to
draw caricature of her imperial
spouse representing him as n solemn.
bearded infant in long clothes, sur
rounded by a host of pompous officials
armed with feeding bottles.
The Russian empress Is regarded as
one of the handsomest of the many
granddaughter of Queen Victoria. Her
mother was Victorias sweet Princess

Louis OF Hesse.

RENT PAYS FOR LAND.
Fertile Sections of the South
west, Where Land Sells for
SIS and Rents for SIS per
Acre.

One of the remarkable things
about Eastern Arkansas and North
ern Louisiana is the fact that clear
ed land rents for S. per. acre cash,
and can be bought for $50 to SIS
per acre. 1t costs from SO to $40
an acre to clear it. Other improve
ments necessary are slight and
inexpensive.
The soil it rich alluvial, or made.
1t produces a bale of cotton per
acre, worth $45 to 500. This ac-
counts for its high rental value.
Other crops, such as corn, small
grains, grasses, vegetables and
fruits thrive as well.
Alfalfa yields 4 to 6 cuttings,
ton to a cutting, and brings $40 to
$40 per ton.
In other sections of these states,
and in Texas as well, the rolling or
hill-land is especially adopted to
stock raising and fruit growing.
Land is very cheap, S. to $40 per
acre; improved farms $40, SIS to
SIS per acre.
