Schafer, May 13.-The homestead
ers in their eagerness for quarter
section of any kind of government
land are driving the cattle and horse
ranchers of western North Dakota
from their last stronghold, the vast
territory along the Little Missouri
river, known as the Bad lands.
1t was believed until a year ago
that these lands would remain perm

men, but they are being filed upon so
! rapidly this spring that the big
ranchers within the last week have
acknowledged defeat and are getting

since that time the Indians have been
taking cattle and horses to. run at
the rate of 81 head for horses and
$50 for cattle. The Bad lands ranch
ers have just completed arrangements
with them to use the entire tract this
season. The move of the cattlemen
from the Little issouri region to the
reservation will be their last pilgrim
age in North Dakota.
The Bad Lands, though for the
most part not tillable, yet have here
and there isolated among the buttes
grassy flats and coulees. 1t is on
these areas the homesteaders are put

claims are fenced in and the stockmen
will not be able to make use of the
thousands of acres of grazing land.
How tense the feeling between the
ranchers and homesteaders has grown
may be judged from the two follow
ing notices now running in the
Schafer Record, paper published
near the Bad Lands. The first, notice
signed by all the prominent ranchers
is as follows:

AS the words came out, a black frowa

spread over Leslie's features, and
waves of color chased each other over
his face as he heard the verdict.

Oil Cheaper Than Water.

According to the figures given out
by the commissioner of public works
of Rhode Island, it cost less last year
to lay the dust on the highways by the
use of oil than it cost to attempt to
do so by the use of water in previous
years. The total figures which were
made public give about $1,000 in favor
of the oil.
But it will be very generally admit
ted that the advantage in other ways
is so much greater that had the money
cost for the oil been greater every one
in the city would have approved the
policy Of the highway department. or
course the cost of oil is greater than
the cost of water. but the saving is in
the matter of labor.
One man with a wagon and pair of
horses can keep only small section of
the city sprinklcd with water. while
that same outfit, having gone over a
stretch of street with oil. is not re
quired to visit that particular place
again for weeks.

Candy For Children.

1t goes without saying that discretion
must be used as the time and amount
when candy is given to children. The
best time for such indulgence is inn
mediately after meal, not before it. If
surfeited with sweets there will be no
room left for wholesome food of other
varieties. Children who have plenty of
fresh air will bring to the table a good
appetite for soup, meat and potatoes
and they would much better have fruit,
raw or cooked. and pure candy by way
of dessert than rich pastry and plum
cake. The Christian Herald.
