COLONY Of Russians,

Pierre-The preliminary work is
under way for the location of a colony
of Russian Jew farmers on lands in
Harding county. The state owns a
large amount Of land in that county,
and as none of it is near railway trans
portation, the market price is now
what is required by the constitution
as the minimum selling price for such
lands, but state capitol lands can be
sold on terms which will allow sales
where the school lands could not be
disposed of, and the attempt to locate
this colony is no doubt based on posi-
bilities in that direction.
