Invest at Home ana Help the City.

The following paragraph copied from
the Sioux Falls Argus-Leader, is applica-
BILE to Custer and her surroundings, as
we'll to Sioux Falls. Parties seeking
investments should give it due consid-
Grafton.
The citizens Of this community should
adopt the policy of keeping their in
vestments at home. There are plenty
of local enterprises which need more
capital and which with more money
could be built up into great enterprises.
A number of them are now languishing
for lack of capital. A few thousand
dollars put into them would mean a
bigger output, more men employed, a
bigger tin bucket brigade, and an ampler
business for Sioux Falls. The local in
vestor has by this means two advan-
tages he is on the ground and can post
himself on the outlook of the enterprise,
and its chance for being money maker
and next he can have some assurance
from personal investigation, of the hon.
esty and wisdom of the management.
In this way he stands chance TO make
q better investment, and at the same
time to help the city in which he has
made his home.

VIII Meet 60 Discus. Herd Lsw.

The stockmen of the Black Hills have
become aroused over the proposed
change In the herd laws of the western
part Of the state. While the new set
tiers Of Lyman, Stanley and the eastern
portion Of Penniagton county may want
herd Law, the Black Hills stockmen do
not want it. They do not want the herd
law extended to the Black Hills and the
old settled sections OF the valleys ada
cent to the Hills. They want the law
TO remain ~ it is. and for the purpose of
discussing that and other questions of
interest to stockmen, 4 committee has
called u meeting Of stockmen TO be held
in the city hall, Dezdwood, Saturday,
Jan. l6. The COMMITTEES urges the atten-
dance Of stockmen from every section of
the Hills aud valleys, or representatives
from every.precinct in order that full
and free discussion of the subject may
be had.
As the time is short and early action
is advisable, the committee respectfully
asks the newspapers of the Black Hills
to generously advertise the meeting

Paper From Cornstalks.

After long experiment it il evident
that the question of the manufacture of
paper from cornstalks is near solution.
For months Clifford Pinchot of the De-
partment of Agriculture has been at
work Oh the problem Of securing sub
stituts for wood pulp in the manufac-
ture of paper. AS chief Of the division
of forestry it has been forced to him that
one of the first steps in forest preserva-
ton WAS TO cut out the enormous de-
mands that pulp mills are making on
the timber of the nation. The waste in
cornstalks has suggested substitute for
wood pulp in their use and many exper-
iments on the part of individuals have
been made 10 utilize stalks, but with
little progress. For over year Direc-
tor Pinchot has had small plant in OPP
GRAFTON with the sole object Of convert
ing stalks into paper and with results 90
pronounced that it is now announced
from such conservative sources as gov
ernment authority, that the expert
ments have reached the stage that war
rants the conclusion that the problem is
solved. OF the two methods used in
treating wood pulp the sulphide process
was first tried and proved failure.
Then the soda process was inaugursted
and it is through this process that sue
cess has been achieved. After the
stalks are reduced to pulp the pulp il
separated, the long fbres making one
kind Of paper and the soft pulp of the
inside of stalks another. Beside the
two grades of paper secured there il a
glucose waste secured valuable for stock
feeding which promises to be by-pro-
duct of value large enough to pay the
entire cost of reducing the stalks to pa
per pulp of commerce. The enormous
value of this utilization of cornstslks can
scarcely be comprehended. Last year
this country consumed nearly two and
three-qusrter million pounds of wood
pulp aud TO secure this vast tonnage Of
pulp the finest of growing trees and for
ests were sacriiced. As against this
waste of timber and destruction of for
ests, If cornstalks can bs substituted for
wood, there are enough stalks grown in
this country annually to make twenty
tunes the wood pulp consumed annual
ly, large as that consumption is. And
with stalks a substitute for wood pulp
what opportunities for manufacturing
are opened and with stalks grown in the
central west where but in the immedi-
ate vicinity Of their growth can they be
manufactured 80 cheaply? The devel-
opmsnt Of this new industry is worth
the prompt attention of all wide-awaks
cities in the corn belt.--Lincoln (Neb.)

Encouraging Outlook at Saginaw 4

Encouraging Outlook at Saginaw Mine.
While in Custer Tuesday Pres. Her.
ber, of the Saginaw mine, showed us
some fine specimen rock taken from the
new strike at that mine. Several days
ago quartz taken from the prospect shaft
at the 25-foot level was assayed by two
different proeesses-one gave $53. .32, the
other $93. 80, results. This was right at
the head of the ledge. The ledge dips
at quite an angle. This prospecting
work is done with single jacks.
Monday morning the man at the
windlass noticed quite lot of free gold
as he dumped the fine dirt and water
out of the bucket. Mr.. Herber's IT.
tention being called to this discovery,
he went down in the shaft and at face
Of incline, at q depth Of "a feet had some
rock and quartz picked out of, or rather
clear across the vein, and without
selecting gave some to each assayer to-
test by separate process. The results
being $342. 20 and S3O3. 81 per ton. The
formation yielded Sll.9S. On the in
cline from 25-foot level to 34-foot level,
the vein ranges from q feet to 4! feet
in width. They will continue to follow
the vein so feet, then be governed by
developments.
The mill is not running now on ac-
count of the cold weather. However,
Mr.. Herber is determined to overcome
that obstacle, having ordered from
Michigan coil-pipe steam heating plant
with blower and all appurtenances. The
equipment has been shipped but not
yet arrived. When it is installed they
will then be able to keep the mill run
ming all the time, regardless Of the in
clemency of the weather.
Everybody is busy at the Saginaw
mine and it certainly has an encourag-
ing outlook for the new year.

all of which will be exhibited here on a
scale never before attempted. Three
weeks spent on such . trip--aliowing q
. full week at the exposition and ample
time for scores Of enlightsning sxcur-
sions aud delightfexside trips will yield
more accurate knowledge than can be
acquired in years of reading.
"This exposition is built on the cam
pus of the University Of Washington.
AS result Of Seattle and Washington
enterprise the University will come into
more than $2,OO0,0O0 worth Of perman-
ent improvements, including eight per-
nansnt buildings, eleven miles of grad.
ed and asphslt-psved streets, many acres
Of beautiful gardens and complete sys-
tenn Of underground work."
The invitation also points out that the
vacation time of 1909 comes wholly
within the dates OF the exposition,
which opens June last and closes Octo-
Der 18th. Attention is called to the
educational advantages Of the trip and
to the low rates made by the railroads

New Mexico and Arizona will each
make a desperate effort for separate
statehood during the short session Of
Congress. Western senators and repre-
sentatives generally favor the bills for
separate states and viii urge that they
be taken up in both the senate and

old conservative members are opposed
to creating new states and it will be nsc-
essary for the advocates Of the measure

The forests of the United States now
cover about $50 million acres, or about
one-fourth of the land Of the whole
country. The original forests covered
not less than $50 million acres, or near
ly one half.
The forests owned by the government
cover one-fourth of the total forest area
and contain one-fifth of all timber stand
ing. Forests privately owned cover
three-fourths Of the area and contain
four-fifths of the standing timber. Be-
sides having three times the area and
four times the forests, the timber land
privately owned is generally more vslu-
able.
Forestry, or conser vative numbering,
is practiced on seventy per cent of the
forests publicly owned and on less than
one per cent Of the forests privately y
owned. This covers the country's for
est resources as they stand today.
Senator Smoot, chairman of the section
of forests of the national conservation
commission, in outlining the future has
said.
"By reasonable thrift, we can produce
a constant timber supply beyond our
present need, and with it conserve the
usefulness of our streams for irriga-
ton, water supply, navigation and
power.
"Under right management, our forests
will yield over four times as much as
now. We can reduce waste in the woods
and in the mill at least one-third, with
present as well as future profit. We can
perpetuate the naval stores industry.
Preservative treatment viii reduce by
one-ffth the quantity Of timber used in
the water or in the ground. We can
practically stop forest fires at a total
yearly cost of one-ffth the value of the
standing timber burned each year, not
counting young growth.
ave shall suffer for timber to meet
our needs, until our forests have had
time to grow again. But if We act Wig
orously and at once, We shall escape
permanent timber scarcity"
