on the contrary, that the service has

Another, and unusually plausible form
of attack is to demand that all land not
now bearing trees shall be thrown out
of the national forests. For centuries
forest fires have burned through the
western mountains, and much land thus
deforested is scattered through the ma
tional forests awaiting reforestation. =

AT Work on New Line.

The Northwestern railroad has Sc.
cured its right of way and will build
into the district lying north of Belle
Fourche and watered by the vast gov
eminent irrigation project, which will
cost 81, 1000, 900 and which is nearing
completion. The contract for the
construction work has been let to
Winston Brothers of St Paul, who
were on the ground to begin opera
tions the first of the month.
The proposed branch of the North
western will be 90 miles in length;
will leave the main line at the east
ern edge of the corporate limits of
Belle Fourche and will follow the
Belle Fourche river for a number Of
miles. The intention is to push work
as rapidly as possible, and it is likely
that 1000 teams will be put to work,
if that many can be obtained. North
western surveyors are now working
south and east from the government
townsite, and the supposition is that
they are making a survey for the ex-
tension of the line from that point to
some place near Philip on-the Rapid
City and Pierre line.

Holes of Prairie Dogs Does Effec-
tive Work in DISCRIMINATING.

Missoula, Mont, Sept. 3.-The gov.
ernment's work in poisoning prairie
dogs on infested stock ranges in this
National Forest district has had re.
suits this year which forest officers
have decided warrant its continuance
in 1910. For two years systematic e.
forts upon an extensive scale hav,
been made by the forest service in co.
operation with the stockmen to rid
the National forest ranges in Arizo-
ma, Colorado and New Mexico of these
pests, but this work was not under.
taken in the Northwest until the
spring of 1909.
Eastern Montana and the Dakotas
seem to be the worst infested portion
of this district. The National Forest
areas are comparatively small, but in
some instances the colonies or towns
of those animals cover an area of sew
eral hundred acres and the native
forage plants have been greatly in
jured, while some range areas outside
the forests have been practically de-
vastated.
In the spring of the present year
small allotments of funds were made
to the supervisor of the Custer and
Sioux National Forests for the pur-
pose of starting this work. The funds
were for the most part expended in
purchasing strychnine and other
drugs used in preparing grain for bait,
while the grain was furnished by the
settlers.
The poisoned grain, usually wheat,
vas distributed at the holes through
out the dog towns, both by forest Of
icers. More time was consumed in
%perfecting the plan of cooperation
than had been anticipated and much
of the bait was put out to late to ooh
tain the best results, though several
large dog towns were entirely cleaned
up. Experience has proven that the
grain should be put out very early in
the spring-in fact, just as soon as
the animals appear from their winter
quarters-for the best results may be
obtained before grass becomes availa-

added as a pcplum, waist and points

Trim the neck and dress the hair with
daisies; paper flowers will be capital for
this purpose. A water-lily costume
would be made in similar fashion, but

hat smoothly with the material OF the

chiffon tarlatan that has been drawn
through the hands to soften It. The
ends of the scarf are supposed to be the
cobwebs that float on the air, At one
side of the hat place an owl of the
familiar kind that is made of crepe
paper and has shoe-button eyes. The
witch should carry the provcrbial broom
stick, which should be plcntifuliy dccked
with the cobwebs. A figure of black
cat with arched back and tail erect, cut
from black cloth, should be applied to
