a chief among warlike band of In

his band plotted to go to Darlington
and massacre all the whites at that
agency. Grants peace policy had just
been we'll inaugurated, and the fol-.
lowing will show that kindness can
melt even the heart Of a Cheyenne
warrior.
When this war party arrived near
Darlington they camped for the night

over and do the Job they had planned.

while the banks were full, SO they
decided to wait a day longer.
Big Horse said he would go over
and reconnoiter the agency and find
the exact location of all the white
families. He met the agent, a 20
year-old Quaker, who was very kind
hearted man. He took Big Horse to
dinner with him. Then he went to
see another Quaker family, and the
little ladylike mother gave him her
baby to hold. That night when he

AIDS cHIcoRY INDUSTRY.
United States Government Seeks to In
terest Farmers in Its Cultivation.

An increasing demand for chicory as a
conee addition has caused the United
states Government to make a special ef-
fort to induce American farmers to grow
the plant. (See Bulletin -, u. s. Depart
ment of Agricultural
.Cncory is a root grown something like
the beet or carrot, and has been used as a
food In various ways for centuries
More than a hundred years ago during
the Napoleonic wars, the continent of Eu-
rope was cut off from the outside world
and coffee, of which the Dutch in particu-
lar are very fond. became scarce and
high in price.
1t was found that the chicory root.
dried. roasted and ground, made a most
excellent substitute. Soon many were
drinking ii entirely, while others mixed
coffee
These people found that 1t gave the
coffee richer, fuller flavor, and that the
injurious effects which pure coffee has on
many were entirely overcome.
Since then chicory has been extensively
used by coffee merchants, and the prep
aration of 1t as an addition to coffee
has become a large business, giving en-
ployment to thousands Of men. Many
large factories in Europe and several in
America are manufacturing thousands Of
tons annually.
Being as necessary an addition to cof-
fee, as salt is to soup, chicory has come
into great demand, and to supply this de-
mand the government is interesting ITSELF
II promises an entirely new and profit
able field of endeavor for the American
farmer.
