Taking train to Kapitil plains, the

Pease on his ranch. An immense
caravan of $50 persons was organized
and on April 20 Colonel Roosevelt
had his first African hunt. On this
occasion he bagged two w~ildebeests
and a Thompson's gazelle. April 30
was a notable day in the camp on the

Pierre-Attorney General Clark has
been called upon by the officials of
Perkins county as to what their duties
are in regard to a vote on location
of a permanent county seat at the cleo
ton next fall. The attorney general
holds that the location by vote last
fall was only that of a temporary
county seat, and that it is the duty of
the county auditor to submit the loca-
ton of a permanent county seat at
the next election, without any petition
to that effect. The people of Bi on,
who secured the location two years
ago after a hard fight, do not desire
another vote, but other ambitious
towns are ready for the fight and are
pleased with the ruling. The question
Of a vote on the herd law for that
county is also bothering the officials,
as they were not an organized county
at the time of the last election. The
attorney general holds on this that
a petition must contain a majority of
the votes which were in the precincts
of Butte county two years ago, and
which are now included in Perkins
county.

SOUTH DAKOTA
STATE CAPITAL notes :

Superintendent Rastall OF the gov
eminent Indian school at this city has
for the past two years been doing a
little experimenting with artesian wa
ter for irrigation at the school gar
dens, but all in the way of experiment
tation, without any practical knowl-
edge Of such use Of water. He has Sc
cured the services of a couple of men
from Idaho, who are skilled in the
use of water on irrigated farms. and
for this summer will make a practical
test of that class of work at the
school. The results will be watched
with more than local interest, as the
question of practical use of artesian
water for irrigation in this state has
been discussed from both sides for
years, but it has never been put to a
practical test by men who were thor
oughly familiar with that manner Of
farming. II the work here proves a
success, it will mean a large extension
of the irrigated farming in South Da-
kota. Such assistance to crops can be
made of great value wen in sections
where the annual rainfall is sufficient
al a rule to mature crops, but where a
little assistance in a temporarily dry
period will largely increase the yields.

which to begin active work on a line

PARIS IS BEAMING
UNDER SMALL HATS

So many women who find 1t impos-
sible to wear the fashionable large
picture hats with any degree Of COM
fort or becomingness will welcome
the new small hats upon which Paris
is beaming just now. The newest
chapeaux are usually Of lustrous
black velvet or satin, for these are
two of the most favored textures en-
ployed by Dame Fashion this year.
In shape these small hats usually
have slight downward dropping brims
and often high and dome-shaped
crowns. Or sometimes there is a
short curling brim and a low dented
crown, as in the case of a smart
walking hat, which had folds Of mir
ror velvet gracefully draped about the
crown and a spray of uncurled
feathers standing upright.

HINTS TO CHILDREN
in MAKING GIFTS
Useful Presents That Can be
Made at Small Cost

With the coming Of Christmas, the
spirit OF giving is uppermost IN our
minds. Children enjoy the hustle
and excitement and preparation OF
gifts, and want to make surprises for
those they love. There are many
gifts which they can make all by
Themselves. for trihing cost, which
are priced above all others for the
personal service with which they en-
dow them.
A useful little gift is a cover for
glass TO be used either in time OF
sickness or at night. Have a piece
Of glass cut into a circle, measur-
ing an inch larger than the top Of
a glass, with two small holes bored
in the center. Any glazier can do
this, or an optician. n glass can
not be procured a piece Of aluminium
will do.
Cover this with a circle of fine linen
the same size as the glass cover, seal
loped all around In a dainty color Of
silk Sprays Of little embroidered
flowers can be scattered over this
surface, too, II one wishes to make 1t
pretties and more elaborate.
Fasten the linen through the holes
in the glass with bow of ribbon
which may also serve as a handle.
This little gift Will be very pleas
ing.
Another simple little device that a
very small child can make for it's
father. Is a small case for cleaning
eye glasses. The best material for
making this is chamois. Fold two
thicknesses together, the edges being
either button-holed or "pinked" with
pair OF scissors.
Then the outside layer can have the
initials Of the one for whom it is in
tended. worked in either hackstitch or
sketched on in brown ink. This lit
tie eye-glass cleanser must be small
and compact enough to carry in the
vest pocket.
Huck is an easy material for chill.
dren TO handle Dozens Of gifts
such as pincushion covers, pillow
tops, bureau covers, armchair cases
ETC., can be made out Of this ma,
terial. Il lends itself easily to darn
ing it's surface into quaint geonietrsl
patterns.
Either one or more tones of colo
can be used, and the simple metho
of using a crewed needle is employ
{ ed. weaving the silk in and out of tn
. strands Of the huck. It is both ef
3 fective and durable and iaunder
easily.
A ball Of twine should always b.
at hand. A case to hold this can bl
made of two-colored rafia. Knot these
together, starting on a brass ring

5 tom to allow the twine to come

MOST EFFECTIVE METHOD
OF STERILIZING MILK

To sterilize milk. bring to a steady
boil and hold It at that for forty min
utes. BY then the bacteria in the
liquid will be deprived Of the power
of reproduction.
II is a settled fact that If milk be
boiled a few minutes and set away
in a corked bottle wrapped In flannel
It will remain warm for hours, but
the germs will survive the process
and multiply rapidly. Prof Tyndall
found that he could not destroy the
germs I'm an infusion of hay without
boiling It for several hours.

boiled milk would reduce flesh Il is
possible that the chemical change in

in much of the nourishment lies. may

encourages this growth Witness the
