MAKING LUMBER
IN SOUTH DAKOTA
New Industry Begun West of
River

Doane Robinson in Pierre Dako-
tan The first thi;ly to attract espec-
ial attention after crossing the steel
bridge was saw mill cutting cot
tonwood lumber a few miles above
Fort Pierre on Bad river. Surpris-
ingly large logs were on the skidway
and some good lumber is being cut.
The time is coming when South Da-
kota will be dependent on her own
resources for lumber and the sooner
we realize that fact and make ready
for it the better. There are now
lots of cultivated trees in Pierre
which would make fine saw logs and
we can grow plenty of others any
where in this country which a quart
er of a century hence will supply di-
mension lumber.
At Rapid City a large saw mill is
in course of construction and two
big lumber companies make head
quarters there, owning a large tract
of timber land outside the national
forest reserve, and they are also ne
gotiating to cut reserve timber un-
der the supervision of the forest
rangers.

MONEY EASIER
In NEW YORK
The Wall Street FURRY Quieting
Down
Western Banks Refuse to Furnish
Money for Speculation
Wall Street Finances

sb SSsSSe
The big Wall Street "sphickula.
tors" got to playing their game g
q little too fast, and some of them
were pinched last week.
The conservative New York bank.
ers refused to advance cash as fast
as the plungers wanted it, and took
precautionary measures to keep
their finances in good shape.
This same precaution has been
taken by bankers in various cities OF
the west by establishing a sort Of
quarantine against New York. 1t
may stop at least some of their wild
speculation in stocks.
The country is full of money and
resources, and was never more pros
porous than at present, but bankers
of the west say they are not going
to pour their money into Wall
Streets whirlpool.
Late newspaper reports say the
Wall Street furry is settling down
into normal condition.
The New York condition has tenn
porarily affected prices of both
money and products. Higher rates
demanded for the use of money has
caused some of the grain companies
to temporarily discontinue buying
throughout Minnesota and the Da-
kotas. The price of grains, produce
and live stock has also declined for
several days.
South Dakota banks have also fol-
lowed the general plan of western
banks, and have restricted the pay
ment of currency to immediate
needs Of depositors. The use of
checks and drafts continue without
interruption.
In Miller banking business is go
ing on about as usual, and local
bankers express the belief that the
New York furry will not seriously
affect the west, and will soon pass
away as others have before. Local
banks are considered in excellent
shape, and conservatively managed.
This mornings daily papers report
money again offered in New York
banks at per cent.

FENCE POSTS
FROM WILLOWS
Trees Set to Make Posts i'm Four
Years

Living fence posts are a possibil-
ity in South Dakota if the farmers
of the state will benefit by some ex-
periments that have been conducted
for a number of years by John Ro.
nayne of this city.
Mr. Ronayne's discovery may
sound rather impossible to many
persons at first thought, but never
the less, according to Mr. Ronayne,
living fence posts may be had for
the growing of them.
Mr. Ronayne, who has been study.
ing his experiment for number OF
years. has tested it and found it alb.
solutely satisfactory. He has devel.
opcd willow of rapid growth which
at the end of the fourth year will be
large enough to hold three strands
of fence wire. Mr. Ronayne's scheme
is for farmers to plant the slips OF
the willows at tender age at the
usual fence post distance on the lane
he wishes fenced, and let them re-
main there for several seasons. Al
the end of the third year the tree:
will be strong enough to enclose
young cattle and at the end of the
fourth or fifth year to enclose cattle
of any age.
These willows offer a double ad.
vantage, for they not only make 9
permanent fence, but they give cat.
tie excellent shade through the sum.
mer. Probably the Willows would
not be as desirable for tillable land
but for enclosing pasture they should
be great success. Aberdeen Amer.

WHEAT WANTED
IN EUROPE
Break in Price Brings Orders
From Abroad

Chicago, Oct. 80. A break in the
price of wheat yesterday brought
large European orders for immedi-
ate shipment. Six hundred thous-
and bushels of red winter wheat was
sold here yesterday for shipment
east. Chicago bankers regard this
movement as significant of the pow
erful aid which the west is bringing
to the financial situation.
They said that if the movement of
the great staple continues to grow,
the obligations to this country Gre
ated abroad will soon be so large
that it will be impossible for Europ-
can banks to retain their gold even
by fixing the discount rates at pre-
MUM.

New York, Oct. 25.-Alton B.

Commenting thereupon he said.
How glorious it is to be heaven.

congress could not have appreciated

would not have needed yesterday the

that prompted him to throw TWEEN

Well DriIlers Strike Granite

Huron World:-After boring con-
tinuously night and day including
Sundays, since July 18th, and reach
ing depth of between 1140 and
1150 feet, Norbeck & Nicholson,
drillers of the city artesian well, de-
clare that they have struck granite
and that the project will have to be
dropped. They have bored some
five or six feet into the granite, bor-
ing less than one foot within the last
twenty-four hours, but since no drill
has ever been sent through granite,
the opinion being held that it is bed
rock, the probabilities are that work
will cease where it is.
