A LOCAL NU|LD|NG
AND LOAN COMPANY

if properly organized and conduct
cd will carry out a plan whereby
every working man of limined
means may make his own home.
A plan of organization is proposed
for 3llcnsburg at the present time
that will get the lot owner, the
building tradcsiuau thc capitilist
and the renter together for their
mutual benefit. The lot owner finds
sale for his lot; the building
tradcsmau get steady employment
and become Interested in the COM
pauy and share i'll the profits; the
capitlst gets his interest or divi
dcnds; and the renter a home on
terms that will enable him to pay
for it.-By this plan the lot is pur
chased, home built and purchaser
put in possession of his home i'm
mediately and at a saving of origi-
nal cost by the many advantages
gained by operating on a large
scale and with a lesser interest
charge than the usual building and
loan company charges. The pur-
chaser is not asked to buy stock in
the company in order to get a
home and his interest will be pro-
tected in every way.
THIS HOME BUILDING PLAN
has been tried at Sunnyside, a town
of 1900 inhabitants some forty
miles down the valley from Yaki-
ma during the last two years and
has proved a great success. Nearly
a hundred homes have been built
and sold on terms the same as
rent, The homes built by COM
mon sense practical method have
been sold at from $3.50 to $4,000
including lot. Considering room,
comfort, convenience and stability
they were sold cheaper than all in
experienced person could have
built them for the same amOnnt of
cash.
IT'S POLICY
will be conservative in buying To-
cations. not paying more than a
cash price and close in property
with improvements OF practical
worth being much preferred but of
course they must be without build
ings. Only purchasing such prop
critics that constitute good sound
invest ments, irrespective of sales
made to homeseekers.
TERMS
The home purchaser gets the
property on as long time as he
desires, provided the payments
equal the ordinary monthly rental
of such property.
INTEREST
If a property increases in value
equal to the interest paid, the pur-
chasers actually save every cent
paid in on both interest and princi-
pal. absolutely reversing the con-
dition of rent whereby nothing is
saved.

The Black Hills are situated in

hinged to the Crow Indians. AL
though they occupied so much ter

nation. There chief Watawamat,
had won MANY battles over the
small tribes, but they had one enemy
thew dared not fight for fear of
being wiped off the face of the
earth forever. This enemy, the
Nez Perces, occupied the region of
Oregon, Washington, Idaho. and
part Of Canada. Although game
and fish were abundant in their
own lands, they would go quite
frequently, on hunting expeditions
into lands owned by neighboring
tribes, and as they were fond of
rides across the high Rocky Noun
tains, their trips were more fire.

that were bothered by them were
very angry because of the unjust
treatment, but they were weak and
the Nez Perces were strong, so
they could do nothing to defend
themselves.
In one of the beautiful Black
Hill valleys was an encampment
Of Crow Indians. Their wigwams
were built by crystal brook that
rambled over it's rocky bed in haste
to join the Big Horn river. The
valley and surrounding hills were
covered with stately frs and pines.
1t was spring in this quiet region
and everything was exceedingly
beautiful; the deep blue of the
nolets, the delicate color of the
mlliums against the green foliage
and moss; all these mingled to-
lether made a pleasing appearance.
The squaws, with their crude
plows, were preparing the soil for
