The quarter section in which Rattle
snake hill IS situated has been set aside
AS Il reservation by the interior De
partment, and withheld from home
stead entry for the reason that the
valuable building stone deposit con
tanned in the hill is useful Tor govern
ment building purposes, especially in
the construction OF concrete work. Had
the Interior Department not taken this
action, some enterprising individual
could have taken the hill with great
profit to himself, as in future years

particularly valuable by reason OF the
excellent quality OF the stone and its
proximity To this place.
