BLACK HILLS FOREST RESERVE
OPENED TO HORSES AND CATTLE

Edgemont, S. u. July l0.-The United
States government, through the officers
of the forestry service. has come to the
relief of the cattlemen and horse rais-
ers of the Black Hills and adjacent ter.
ritory, whose range has been burned
off by the excessively hot and dry
weather which has prevailed In this
part OF the northwest during the great
or part of the summer.
The feed for the cattle and horses
has been reduced to almost nothing and
more serious even than this in the fact
that waterholes have become dry over
many parts Of the range and there is
not sufficient water to supply the
wants OF the animals.
The forestry service has decided to
permit cattle and horses to be placed
in the Black Hills forest reserve under
a lease system. The national forest
in the Black Hills affords grazing and
water to almost unlimited quantities
and the cattle and horse raisers are
glad to avail themselves Of the oppor.
tunity.
Applications have been made to the
service for the grazing of about 5000
head Of cattle and nearly 1000 head
of horses. The department of agricul.
ture has authorized the grazing of TO-.
600 head of cattle or horses in each OF
the two divisions Of the reserve. and
there is no doubt that additional APP
plications Will run the number of cattle
and horses there up to the full number
allowed
In case of necessity thousands more
could be admitted without taxing the
limit Of the grass and water. But ever
under the present limitation of the de.
partment, 10000 can be cared for.
Summer grazing permits are issued
from May to November 80, the charge
for which is % cents for CO tie per
head. and So cents per head for horses
Winter permits, good from December
to April 30, are issued at the rate of 20
cents per head for cattle and 80 cents
per head for horses.
Associate Forester A. F. Potter, of
washington, ID. c., who recently visited
the Black Hills at the request of sheep
owners of South Dakota and Wyom-
ing, following their petition to forestry
department to permit them to Craze
their herds in the reserve during the
continuance Of the drought, has de-
cided against the sheep owners.
The official found that there was
general opposition on the part of the
settlers surrounding the reserve to per-
hitting sheep to Craze and 1t also was
made apparent that the capacity of the
reserve would be taxed to the utmost
by the admission of the cattle and
hOrseg from the foothills country

some years ago Scotch laird found
on succeeding to his estates that the
house contained two portraits Of q dis
tinguished member of the family who
had fourished during the reign of
George Ill, one by Reynolds and the
other by Raeburn. He knew no more
or the pictures than q Newfoundland
dog, and he decided that two portraits
or the same individual need not be
kept. The Reynolds was retained,
while the Raeburn was presented TO q
puolic gallery. The worthy man was
struck with CONSERVATION some time
afterward when he found that his gift
had been valued at 5000 guineas. and
probably the picture would now fetch
double that sum.

There Is 2-year-Old baby burdened

GubernatOriaI Situation

Atlanta, Ca, July 25.-The gu

campaign of j. Pope Brown in a
speech at Waycross Saturday, al
though as yet the entire situation IS
in a, puzzlins state. Mr.. Browns
platform as outlined in the Way
cross speech, is being widely dis
cussed here in legislative and po-
litical circles.
The recent adoption of the Ault
resolution, providing for an investl-
CATION of the department OF agrl-
culture, by the senate, following its
passage in the house, is said by
many to be an effort to keep Mr..

race. However, number of Mr..
HudsOn's enemies contend that
should he enter the race, he would
receive the support of not one fac
ton but a scattering vote from all
sides.
1t is held that Mr.. Hudson in his
appointments does not show that ne
favored any one side, but has APP
pointed both Smith and Brown men

it is contended, has hurt him poIltl-

Two-Thirds Of Cotton
Crop Produced In South.

Atlanta, July 25.-That the
greatest monopoly in the world IS
in the cotton crop of the south was
the assertion made by Claud N.
Bennett of Washington D. G., in a
lecture before the general assembly
in the hall of the house of repre-
sentatives last night. MIR. bennett
stated that the cotton crop OF 1917
brought the farmers OF the SCUM
more than two hundred and nifty
millions of dollars in actual cash.
and that more than two thirds OF
the cotton crop of the entire world
is produced in the Southern states.
Speaking of the various uses TO
which the cotton of the south is
now being put he pointed out that
the southern states produces cot
ton that is being used in clothing
cotton seed oil, feed, fertilizers
Iamp wicks and other materials
and that in Philadelphia they are
making peanut brittle mainly out
of cotton seed.
He stated that peanuts is announcer
southern monopoly, the south pro
ducing ninety-nine percent OF the
peanuts of the world.
Another great southern monop-
DIV" said MT. Bennett is turpen-
tine and rosin. In the south alone
of the United States are these pro
duced, and their actual value IS
thirty-six millions a year, Prac-
ticaliy all the sulphur used IN the
country is also produced IN me
south, as are all Of the boxle: tne
mineral used for making ALUMINIUM
and other lesser minerals.
you could fence the south with
a wall as high as the stars declar-
ed Mr.. Bennett, and the section
would flourish"

News From The Capitol.

Washington ID. Y. July 1o-roi
the past week the State and Navy
Departments have been busy max
ing preparations for the coming OF
Admiral Count Heihachiro Togo,
Chief of the Naval staff OF Japan
and hero of the great sea fight OF
May 27-2S, 1904, when his feet
Ynet the fleet of Russia in the Sea
of Japan and brought about Its
entire humiliation in the course
of the fight
In the last quatrer Of a century
no such welcome has been extend
ed to a foreign officer with the
possible exception of the enter
tainment furnished to Prince Henry
of Prussia, who came to the united
States. not so much as laqrel-
crowned hero of a well known
hattie but as the representative
and relative of a friendly sovereign
Prince Henry had neves Smelled
powder except as puff Of Salutlng
smoke may have assalled MS
nostrils. Prince Henry has never
seen a shot fired in anger No SO
Admiral Heihachiro Togo, Samural
and Noble of the land of the Rising
Sun
According to tentative plans OF
the two departments Admiral
TOGO and his aide will arrive at
New York August 4, where the
hero Of the Sea Of Japan will be
met by Capt Templin M. Potts, U.
s N. who has been detailed by
President Taft to represent the
United States government during
Admiral Togo's stay in this country
including his projected transcontl-
! mental journey, for the Admiral
will sail for home from Vancouver.
THE Itinerary as tentively prepared
by the State and Navy Depart
ments provides for a two days
visit in New York and its envlrons.
He is expected to arrive in WASH
inaton on Aug 6 where ne viii
snend three or four days During
his stay in the Capital he will be
djned at the White House and by
Secretary of State Knox and the
Secretary of the Navy Meyer. The
Admiral will be taken to Mt Vern-
On on the presidential yatch May
flower" where he will deposit a
wreath on the tomb of Washing
ton and will also be shown over
the Indian Head (Md) naval prov
;ne grounds. Annapolis will fur
nish a side trip and there the
Admiral will be given glimpse OF
the alma mater of many OF ms
brothers in arms, for Annapolis
furnished educations for more than
. score of the higher officers OF the
Japanese Navy.
From Washington Admiral Togo
will visit Philadelphia and Boston
and from that city he will journey
to NIAGARA Falls where he Will
cross into Canada and it is doubt
full if he will again enter the United
States as his present plan calls Tor
his westward trip over the Can
adam Pacific Railway.
Admiral Togo's rank is a full
Admiral. In this he parallels Ad-
miraI George Dewey. Therefore
when he visits any of the military
or naval posts of the United
States he will be accorded the
honors of the highest naval rank
including the salute of seventeen
guns.
