GOVERNMENT WINS CASE.
CattIemen Grazed Animals In Black
Hill Natural Forest and Draws a
Fine.

CattIemen Grazed Animals in Black
Hill Natural Forest and Draws a
Fine.
The fourth important case won by
the government upon the question
whether it is a crime to violate the
regulations of the secretary Of agri-
culture has just been decided in the
United States district court, held at
Deadwood, South Dakota, where Rob-
ert B. Bale was found guilty Of graz
ing trespass on the Black Hills Ma
tional forest and fined 500 and costs.
Mr.. Bale at once paid the fine and
was released.
The defendant is a stock owner re-
siding south of Rapid City and has
been grazing about $50 head of cat
tie in and adjacent to the Black Hills
national forest for some years.
When the range in the national for
ests was put under administration in
1905 and the grazing fee system in
troduced, Mr.. Bale refused to secure
grazing permit or to remove his
stock from the forest.
After repeated efforts on the part
of the local forest officers to persuade
Mr. Bale to remove the stock, he was
finally arrested and in August, 1906,
was indicted by the United States
jury at Deadwood. The trial Of the
case was delayed over two terms of
court by an effort to have the case
tried at Deadwood instead Of Sioux
Falls and the case was not presented
to the jury until September 4. The
court was prompt in overruling the
defendants demurrer attacking the
constitutionallty of the grazing ref
ulations and in reaching a decision
the jury was only out 15 minutes.

Experiments for the Government b!

Experiments for the Government D!
Buffalo" Jones Of Topeka.
The cross-breeding of buffalo with
COWS and of Persian sheep with do
mestic sheep has been undertaken by
Buffalo" Jones of Topeka. He Il
conducting his experiments under th'
direction of the Agricultural depart
ment in a forest reserve Of $4,000
square miles near the Grand Canyon
in Arizona, says the Kansas City. Star
The house agricultural committee
is holding hearings on proposed ap'
propriations for the bureau of ami.
NAL industry of the agricultural de-
partment, and Mr.. Jones made q
statement before the committee in
support of some of the proposed ex-
penditures.
In the forest reserve is herd OF
about 100 buffalo which Mr.. Jones
said were in splendid condition. For
breeding purposes he had shipped to
the reserve several fine Galloway
cows The cross is a large animal
with the siong hair Of the buffalo.
The hides, ne said, were as valuable
for robes as those OF the buffalo. The
flesh is no coarser than that of cat
tie. Mr.. Jones informed the commit
tee that he would proceed with his
cross breeding experiments until he
had demonstrated that the breeding
of buffalo and COWS was entirely
practicable.
He also said that his experiments
in breeding Persian sheep with do
mestic sheep had proved successful
The result Of this breeding is sheep
which, he says, has a finer flavor
than that Of the domestic sheep be-
cause it is free from the pronounced
mutton taint, to which many persons
object. The wool is finer than that
of the Persian sheep and Mr.. Jones
predicts that it will be more desirable
for wearing apparel. There was no
doubt. he believed, that the cross
would be more valuable for both its
wool and flesh.
Agricultural department officials
are following the experiments by Mr..
JoPes with interest. Recently the
bufeau of animal industry has de-
voted much attention to experimental
cross breeding and this year Secre-
tary Wilson recommended an increas-
ed appropriation for this branch Of
the agricultural departments work.

ers for them if they should go to
school. The state has provided scarce
~ money enough to maintain for four
months schools for the two-thirds who
are in school, Many a teacher in
this progressive state Of ours is trying
to teach forty, fifty or even sixty pu-
pills. with twenty-five to thirty recita-
tions a day, for $50 month, or even
less. In many counties there is not a
four months term. There are still to
be found log school houses, and many
districts in which there Is no school
house at all We point with pride
to what we have done; are we making
any definite plans concerning the
things we have not yet done? In many
counties the actual school fund last
year was no greater per capita than 1t
was five or six years ago. In these
counties the increase in school popula-
ton has kept pace with the increase In
property valuation. The state has made
no increase in the tax levy for schools,
nor has it increased the special appro-
priatiOns to maintain four months
term. The legislature of 1907 made
large increases in the appropriations to
all objects except the elementary pub
lie schools. The annual appropriation
to the state university was increased
from $4,000 to $4,000: and the other
institutions of higher education receiv-
ed equally generous treatment. Ample
provision was made for the insane, the
deaf and dumb. the blind and the old
soldiers. But nothing arrived at So
luton of the problem. A medicinal
treatment has been discovered that at
last promises prompt, permanent cure.
We will start tomorrow here in the
South Carolina hospital for the insane,
where we have several cases, testing
this cure"

Short Crop

It seems to be generally
conceded that the cotton crop of
York county this year will be from
25 to S3 per cent short of what 1t was
last year, when the largest yield in
the history Of the county-about A.
600 bales-was harvested. While
there is no reason to doubt that the
crop is short, still it hardly seems
likely that it will amount to so much
as from 1900 to 14,600 bales, and
that is what from 25 to S3 per cent"
means, and it is to be hoped that the
shortage is being over-estimated'
rather than under. Again, the de-
crease in yield cannot be helped and
the farmer who has done his best,
should not fret. Don't worry over
condition that you can help, but go
ahead and apply the remedy, and
don't worry over a condition you can
not help, because worrying hurts you
and does not heal the trouble. Worry
kills. You can save yourself from
heavy loss and worry in case your
property is destroyed by fire by insur--
ing it in One OF the Time Tried and
Fire Tested companies represented by
me Before the fire occurs. Today Is
the best time you will ever have.
