Reforestration in Hills

misunderstanding, process
used in reforestation on the diff
ferent national forests in the west,
is to be more extensively pursued on
the Black Hills national forest this
year than ever before. To date there
has been 5000 acres or One-fifth the
amount seeded in the whole United
States, reseeded in the Black Hills.
This work was commenced here in
1905 under Supervisor Bullock, now
United States marshal, and has been
quite successful, not only in the Black
Hills, but in other sections. Tracts
devasted by fire or insects have been
replaned and new timber is growing
we'll. This spring at least 500 acres
in the vicinity of Dumont. in the
southern part of this county, are to
be reseeded by Supervisor Kelleter
and his force.
Observation-Disclosures Superintend-
ent Drum, of the Milwaukee rail-
road, has assembled large amount
of piling on the river bank at
this place, and the last few days
workmen have been engaged in the
preliminary work of placing piers in
the Missouri river several hundred
feet above the railroad bridge. This
piling is calculated to break up the
ice before it reaches the bridge.
Huron-A number of railway mail
clerks were here canvassing the situa-
ton in the tenth division of the rail-
way mail service. They are keeping
close tab on what is going on, and
while very little is said. it is evident
that they have good reasons to believe
that the investigation now in progress
by the postoffice department will result
favorably to them. 1t is asserted that
two of the suspended clerks on the
Tracy-Pierre run, where the most
trouble has originated have been
notified of their reinstatement. Other
clerks, it is said, will receive similar
notice soon.

also started out in a boat.
The i've men reached the would-be

that he be allowed to drown. and gave

taken to the clubhouse and the Har-

Policeman Frank Campion took Hill
to St. Michael's Hospital. 1t is said
that Hill has several times threatened

TAFT TALKS ON
FARMING IN FIRST
SPEECH OF TOUR
Tells Hearers of Good Work
Done by Department of
Agriculture.

SYRACUSE, n. T., Sept. ia dis
cussion of the activities of the depart
ment of agriculture and of the oppor-
tunities for progress open to farmers
formed the substance of the address
delivered by President Taft a. the
State fair grounds today. The Presl-
dent said in part:
We are spending $751; 00. 900 a year
in the maintenance of a department
OF agriculture, and we might as we'll
face the truth and realize that this ex-
pense, instead of decreasing, is bound
to increase. / have given much atten-
ton to the matter of economy and
efficiency in government.
while I do not mean to say that
the present department of agriculture
In the work which it Is doing might
not be made to do the same work for
less money by a closer-knit organiza-
ton and greater care in its expendi-
lures, I am confident from looking into
the future of the department to the
pressing need for expansion of its
work. that an increase in the appro-
prlations each year for that depart
i0tIt may W diio Od6hb W
in the interest of the government.
1.-THE amount of information when
the farmers have received and acted
upon in their farming business from
the bureau of plant industry, from the
bureau of soils and from the bureau OF
animal industry, in the department OF
agriculture, can hardly be o~verrated,
and the dependence Of the welfare OF
the country on the continued spread OF
this information for the Improvement
of agriculture ought to be emphasized
whenever opportunity arises.
S78, 600, 900 Acres in Farm.
I'VE have today in this country. in
continental United States, about 1,90o.-
900, 900 acres of land. OF this, S73, 900, 900
are included In the acreage of farms.
In the last ten years that acreage did
not increase more than $4,000, 900, or a
little over 4 per cent. In that same
time our population increased 20 per
cent. OF the 1878, 600, 900 acres. All, 000, 900
are improved farm land. The 1913, 600, 900
includes wood land and unimproved
land. The improved land in farms has
increased about So, 90, 900 in ten years,
or some 10 per cent, but this. it will be
seen, is not equal to the increases in
population. Now, If NJ population in
creases as rapidly as it has heretofore,
we shall in fifty years have upwards of
200. DOC, 900 of people in this country to
support on this S73. 900, 900 acres, much
of which is probably not capable OF
producing a great deal. There are some
8 1000, 900 acres of swamp land that car
be drained; and there are $4,000, 0O(
acres of land that can be irrigated; but
with all these. 1t is perfectly palpable
hat within the life of many who are
born now, we shall be pressing the limit
of our self-support from the soil unless
some other method than by the mere
extension of area be found for the In
ereasing of our crop production.
