Locate Home for Aged.

Dell Rapids, Aug, 10
Recently Dell Rapids was Sc
lected as the location for a $780,
600 home for aged and infirm
members Of the order which the
Odd Fellows Of South Dakota
have decided to erect.
Several sites were offered and
now the home board has prac-
tically decided upon what is
known as the Cooley farm, in
the suburbs Of Dell Rapids, as
the site for the home.
The site will embrace about
20 acres and as selected is the
highest point in Dell Rapids OF
vicinity, giving a fine view Of
the valley both north and south.
1t is expected that the next
annual grand lodge meeting OF
South Dakota Odd Fellows will
award the contract for the cree.
ton Of the home.

This policy does not generally
prevail now. Some mills have
put in machinery to work up
their own by-products, others
sell then waste to manufacture
ers wood can use it, as in the
case cited in Maine. The prop
critics and uses OF woods are
now subjects Of careful investi-
cation, and the problem OF
turning to account the odds and
ends and by-products is brought
more to the front now than for
merly.
The United States forest SER
vice has taken up this study in
a comprehensive and systemat-
lie way Investigations of the
woods Of particular states are
being conducted, usually in CO.
operation with the states con-
cerned. The plan, when fully
carried out, will include every
commercial wood in the United
States. not fewer than 200 spe-
cies. The properties of each
will be Investigated, its hard
ness, toughness, elasticity, dur
ability, weight, fuel value, size
of tree, regions where grown,
the common names by which it
is known in different localities,
and other matters of this kind.
A history of the woods uses in
the past will be given, and an
account Of present uses; to-
gether with suggestions for
wider range of usefulness in the
future by pointing out in what
capacities it will serve best and
be most valuable.

ion in the Black Hills. The
work this summer consists OF
constructing q series OF eight
tunnels through the the 9aoRp-
tain sides. These tunnels CONF
b]ned will have length OF
about five miles and Will con
tain a conduit through which
the waters Of Spearfsh creek
will be carried to an intake dam,
where the water will be stored
for use in the plant.
The tunnels are being driven
by electric drills connected up
with the main workings and it
is hoped to have them in such a
condition by cold weather that
the men will all be working I'M
der ground.
1t is expected to have the
power plant ready by the fall of
1910. The tunnel work will
take until next spring, when
the concrete dam will be com
menced. The plant, about three
miles below the falls, will have
a minimum capacity of 5000
horsepower. Its estimated cost
is about $1,000, 900.

its double curved roof sur

on either side are the stalls,
thirty-six on side, wide, airy

This stately and commodious
building is to be used by the
judges when pronouncing upon
the merits Of prize cattle sub

it would be difficult to suggest

THE NEW TARIFF LAW.
The Pay1le- Aldrich tariff bill

THE NEW TARIFF Law.
The Payne Aldfich tariff bill
as modified in conference is
now a law Of the land, super
ceding the Dingley bin Of some
years ago. In commenting on
the measure the president is
credited with the statement that
he signed it believing it a sin
cere effort on the part of repub-
licans to mako downward revi-
sion and to comply with the
promises of the platform as
they have been generally UNI
q derstood and as he interpreted
them in the campaign before
election. The statement is very
optimistic, viewed in the light
Of a westerner, and the hope is
to be expressed that the UTTER
ances of the chief executive are
correct. The country is entitled
to relief and the demand for it
was pressing in the extreme.
The president, like the aver
age citizen Of this country, is
3 not entirely satisfied, having
expressed the opinion there are
several items Of Importance
which should have been reduc-
ed. But the people will have
to stand for the bin no matter
how worded and they will make
the best of it. Time alone will
justify the correctness of Wis
dom emphasized by its trainers,
men who were selected for the
task IL behalf Of the people, the
