SOUTH DAKOTA FORESTS.

South Dakota has ,26a 72O acres of
national forest. The Black Hills
national forest includes 1863. 100 acres
and the Sioux national forest only
2t5, ,Sl3 acres.
The Black Hills forest is named
from the mountain range in South
Dakotas the Cote Noire" of the ear
~ French settlers, Black Hills, So
called because of the dark appearance
OF the timbered heights. The Sioux
forest is named for the Sioux Indians.
The largest tribe in the United States
The word is an abbreviation of the
name applied to these Indians bv the
Onbwas, and signifies ''little snakes =
or enemies. 1t is the intention of the
forest service to name additional
forests 50 AS to perpetuate names

tory and development Of the western

able product of the national forests

but during the last fiscal wear very
nearly 10000, 900 feet of western pine
known to silviculturists as "pinus
ponderosa," was sold from the South
Dakota national forests.
The total gross revenue from the
national forests of South Dakota last
year was S34 307.OG, Of which amount
% per cent. Cas finally corrected and
approved will be turned into the
county road and school funds.
The government will eXpend for per

| present fiscal year some S4 $50, of
which sum %3,S75 will be spent in the
Black Hills forest, in the western
portion OF the state, and the balance
in the Sioux national forest, in thc
northwestern portion.
There is no activity Of the govern
ment which is more clearly benelicla
than that manifested by the forest
service, and there are few men in the
government service more deserving
Of commentator for his labors than
Clifford pinchot, chief forester, and
as such, the head of the service. AL
