Mr.. Hall believes that the prospects
are favorable to the passage of this
bill next year.
Representative Hall has introduced
a bill providing for the location of a
fish cultural station at WATERFOWL.
He could not get the bill through this
year but it is pretty we'll assured
that it will pass at the next session
so that, in a year or two WATERFOWL
may say with truth that a sucker is
born every minute. "~A -s~-

ECZEMA NOW A
All itching Skin Diseases Which are
Not Hereditary Instantly Relieved
by Oil of Wintergreen.

Some physicians say Yes"

Can Eczema be cured?
Some physicians say Yes
Some say "No."
The real question is, what is
meant by Eczema?" If you mean
those scaly %eruptions, those dis
eases which make their first
appearance, not after birth, but years
afterward, and perhaps not until mid
die age-then there can no longer be
any question that these forms of Ec-
zema are durable.
Simple vegetable oil of wintergreen,
mixed with other vegetable ingred-
tents, will kill the germs that infest
the skin. Apply this prescription to
the skin, and instantly that awful itch
is gone The very moment the liquid
is applied, that agonizing, tantalizing
itch disappears, and continued appli-
cations of this external remedy Don
cure the disease.
All druggists carry in stock this
oil of w~intergreen properly compound
ed into ID. ID. ID. Prescription. While
we are not sure that it will cure all
those cases OF skin trouble which are
inherited, we positively know that this
ID. d. d. Prescription, whenever right
ly used, will cure every last case of
genuine Eczema or other skin trouble,
which did not exist at birth.
We know this, Anyway you, your
self, will know that ID. d. ID. Prescrip-
ton instantly takes away the itch the
moment it is applied to the skin. Stop
that itch today-instantly. Just call
at any drug store and try this re-
freshing and soothing liquid; also
ask about d. d. ID. Soap.

Another piece of legislation in the
interest Of the Indians was the bill
providing for the restoration Of an
nuties to the Medawakton and Wahpa-
koota Sioux Indians (Santee tribe.)
A large number of these Indians never
sacres and have been done a great
injustice by the Government, which
withheld their annuties. Under the
bill of Senator Gamble the rights of
these were restored, and on proper
showing before the Court of Claims
that they did not participate in the
uprisings, they may be enrolled for
their annuities.
A bill for the benefit of prospective
settlers in Trip county, which is to
be opened under the act passed in
1907, of which Senator Gamble was
the author, is the measure that pro
vides that allotments shall not be made
in Trip county for those Indians Of
the Rosebud reservation whose allot-
ments have not been already made.
This will facilitate the opening of the
new county, which will probable take
place this year. Senator Gamble Sc
cured the passage of a bill to cancel
the allotment of an Indian, William
Jondron, whose allotment proved to
have been fictitious.
One of the most important bills, as
affecting South Dakota, was one in
troduced by Mr.. Hall, which went
owe to neXt session, but the passage
he regards as quite probable. The
bill provides for the releasing of public
lands containing deposits of coal. 1t
provides that any citizen Of the United
States or any association of persons
who are thus severally qualified may
make application to the Secretary of
the Interior to lease coal lands and
the Secretary is authorized to make

ly and rapidly as is practicable and
reasonable. The annual rental per
acre is to be five per cent of the APP
praised value of such lands and in
addition theretu such royalty as may
be deemed proper in each case by
the Secretarv VI the Interior, but not
less than Y cent per ton, nor more
than five cents per ton.
The bill provides for the termina-
ton of any lease in the event that
any lessee shall directly or indirectly
enter into any contract, combination
or agreement in the nature of a trust
or conspiracy in restraint of trade or
to establish a monopoly in the mining
or selling of coal. A provision in the
bill allows any state or territory to

some one of the traction carts will be
found desirable. Cities and towns will
find it an economical way of grassing
the roadsides and causing the destruc-
ton of unsightly weeds. Every city
and town should possess m or more
good spray carts and several hand
sprayers, the latter to allow spraying
to be done in waste places, difficult to
reach with the traction sprayer. A
nan can readily spray over and area
as fast as he would NOW over it
whether he is working by hand or
with a team. The traction sprayer is
rather more rapid in action than NOW
ing as the machine allows travelling
over rougher ground.
The most satisfactory substance for
general work upon dandelions and
miscellaneous roadside weeds is iron
sulphate, used at the rate of approx
mately two pounds for each gallon of
water. On lawns for dandelions alone
strength of one and one-third to one
and one-half pounds for each gallon
of water will be found to give the
desired results, though, if the dande-
lions are large and coarse and the
grass hardy, two pounds for each gal
loh of water will give the best results.
"On lawns do not spray until two
or three days after cutting and do
not NOW the lawn until two or three
days after spraying. Spray on bright,
sunshiny days. The lawn should be
prepared for spraying by a thorough
watering preceding the spraying so
that it would not need to be watered for
two or three days after spraying. Sc

Whatever the method used for the
eradication of the dandelion, a fresh
supply of bluegrass seed scattered on

will surely repay the cost. Care should
be taken to see that this does not con-

SOUTH DAKOTA IN CONGRESS

Walter Edward Harris, Washington
representative Of the DacOtah Maya
zine, has the following interesting
article on the work of the Dakota
delegation at the national capitol.
South Dakota's representatives in
Congress accomplished about as much
for that state as was achieved for
any state of equal population and
wealth; in fact, more was done for
South Dakota than for many states of
greater population. The Senators and
Representatives worked hard on South
Dakota matters as we'll as general leg
islation. Constituents should remem-
Der that many general matters claim
the attention of their representatives
at Washington, and that all of their
time cannot be devoted to the bust
ness of their states and districts. SEN
ator Kittredge has had to be away
for the greater part of the session,
therefore Senator Gamble had to go
it alone in the Senate. While he had
many other matters to attend to be-
sides those of primary interest to his
own people, he managed to accOm-
plish a great deal for his state.
A great achievement or the session
was the passage of the bill opening
for settlement a part of the Cheyenne
river and Standing Rock Indian res
ervations. This bill opens to settle
ment we'll onto three million acres
of fertile land. capable of supporting
a population of probably one hundred
thousand people. One railroad al
ready crosses it, and this road will
soon be paralleled. But it will be
two years before the actual opening
of the territory, as many allotments
must be made.
A bill which Senator Gamble and
Representative Hall got through, pro-
viding for a new land district in the
| Northern part of Butte and Schnasse
| counties will be a highly appreciated
| relief to settlers in the newly estab-
lished farming communities in Butte
county. The location of the land
office for this district will be at Lem
mon in the northern part of the coun-
ty on the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST.
Paul railroad. The county is at pres
ent in the Rapid City land district and
the distance from Lennon to Belle
| Fourche, is over one hundred and
seventy.six miles overland, while from
Belle Fourche to Rapid City the dis
lance is about fifty miles by rail.
| Senator Gamble and Mr.. Hall have
received many letters from South Da-
kotans in that section commencing
the bill in the highest terms.
One of the most important meas
ures passed in this session, certainly
so far as the public land states are
concerned, was Senator Candles bill
providing that persons who have lost,
forfeited, or abandoned their home
stead entries, provided, these entr.
les were not cancelled for fraud or
relinquished for a valuable considera'
ton shall be entitled to the benefits
Of the homestead laws as though such
former entries had not been made

in the development of the public iant

his bill to appropriate $4,000 to be
used in purchasing stock for the Rose
