EXERCISE CARE IN
SELECTION OF SEED

The Period for making the selec-
tion of seed grain for the coming
seasons planting is drawing near,
the advent OF spring and seeding
time being only about mouth
away.
Especial care should be taken to
select grain that is perfectly clean
and free frOL L deleteriOus seed, as,
if only clean seed is sown, the land
under cultivation can more easily
be kept free from weed growths
that otherwise would become trou-
blesOme and materially reduce the
yield in all fields infected.
This applies to all kinds of
small grain-wheat, oats, fax, al
falfa, etc.
Care shown in this matter now
will be the means OF saving the
farmer from worry and all kinds
Of work eradicating the weed nui-
sance once it gets start on the
farm, and special attention should
be given the subject from now
until planting time.
The present crop outlook is very
favorable and no doubt the acre
age planted will be much larger
than formerly anticipated. This
will make necessary the purchase
of extra quantities of seed and
these additional demands will
quickly deplete the stocks now
available and may be the means of
bringing in poor seed for sale to
those who fail to provide against
the possibility of having to take
anything they can get when seed
ing time comes. .-Dupree News.

perviSor Paul Keller, of the Black
Hills forest, has represented the
department of agriculture, and f.
r. Brnker, commissioner cf school
and public lands of the state of
South Dakota, has represented the
sete, with Seth Bullock as third
member, has made careful study

school lands and of the areas not
relinquished by the government.
Field parties have gathered data
for every section involved, with
the result that the lieu areas are
known to be a fair exchange for
the school lands to which the state
relinquishes its claim.
This exchange is the first fruit
Of plan inauqurated by the forest
service several years ago, and laid
before the governors of various
western states with a view to set
tling the vexed question of school
lands within national forests. An
agreement similar to that ! ith the
state of South Dakota has been en-
tered into with Idaho and negotia

into compact bodies will enable
both the states and the forest SER
vice to manage their respective
holdings more advantageously than
would otherwise b1 possible, and
will enable the state to obtain bet
ter returns for the benefit of its
schools.
Under the terms of the procla-
ton all selections by the state of
South Dakota must be filed within
ninety days from the date of the
proclamation or from the approval
Of the official plat Of survey of any
unsurveyed land covered by the
agreement.

GEO. P. PERRY
FREE AGAIN
Former Sheriff OF Corson County
Released From Federal
PeDitentiary.

according TO press dlSpatcheS,
Geo. L. Perry, formerly sheriff OF
CorSon county, was released from
the federal penitentiary at Leaven-
worth, Kansas, after serving q
year and a day Cor introducing in
toxicating liquors on the Standing
Rock Indian reservation.
Perry wa+ the first sheriff of the
county, being e.ected at the time
the county was organized in the
summer of 1909 He was badly
addicted to the liquor and drug
habits and was under the influence
Of these stimulants a large portion
Of the time. at which intervals his
conduct was most unbecOming to a
peace officer even in a new coun-
try. Complaints were made to the
federal authorities that he had
been guilty of eXtOrtlLg quite large
sums of money from the Indians
under various pretenses and of
giving and selling them intoxica.-
ing liquors. The government sent
detectives to Mcintosh, who watch
ed bis actions closely for some
time, and about the middle Of Sep
temt er, 1910, he was placed under
arrest by government secret SER
vice men while on a train between
Mcintosh and Mobridge. He was
taken to Aberdeen and boand over
to the federal court, when he en-
tered plea of guilty to one of the
indictments against that of
introducing intoxicating liquors
into Indian country-and was sem
fenced to prison for a term of
one year and one day. He was
taken to Leavenworth about De-
cember 1st, and was released un-
der parole March Dist, being sent
to Michigan, where his aged mo-
ther ard other relatives reside. He
violated the provisions of his re-
lease on probation and on August
18th was returned to LeavenwOrth h
to complete the unexpired term,
which has just expired.
During the time Perry was sher-
ife of Corson county he gained a
somewhat extensive acquaintance
over the state, and while his arrest
was anticipated at Mcintosh, it
was the cause of considerable sur
prise where his personal habits
were not so we'll known. 1t is not
known where he intends to 60, but
it is not likely that he will return
to these parts.

During the past year the COW
demonstrated what she can do,
even In poor year, toward the

THINKS RESERVE
Will Be OPENED
Senator Gamble Says He Believes
Bills viii Pass ConGeess
at This Session.
Senior Senator Believes Taft's Ad-
ministration Has Been Com
S.ruCiiv2.

Thursday mornings Aberdeen
American contained the following
interview from United States Sep
atOr Gam Bile:
Il am confident that th4 house
will pass the bills opening to eu-
try the Standing Rock and Chey-
enne River reservations. The bills
passed the senate sometime ago
and | have every assurance and
reason to believe that they will
pass the house at this session." "
This statement, which contains
so much interest to all of South
DakOta, and more especially to
Abe deem and the west Of the river
country, was made last night by
United States Senator Robert j
Gamble, who is in the city for a
couple o. days. The senator ar
rived yesterday and expects to re-
main over the greater part Of to-
day, stopl ing at the Ward.
L did not know before that the
Indians were making any Objec-
tion to the opening of the Stand
ing Rock" said the senator when
told that the Indians on tlat re-
serve had held a big pow-wOw a
couple of weeks ago and decided
upon sending delegates to Wash
ington to protest against the open
ing. The Indians originally
agreed to the terms of the open
ing, and the bills | introduced in
the senate were dlawn along the
lines agreed upon
The senator said he did not
think it possible to get the reser-
vation opened until next sp.i ing,
though he was especially emphatic
in his statement that he thought
the bills would pass congress at
this session.
TALKS POLITICS SOME
Touching on political lines, Sen
atOr Gamble said:
/ have always been a warm
friend OF Colonel Roosevelt and
never denied that he accomplished
much while in the White House.
However, | took it for granted
that he wOulo not again be can
didate and aligned myself with
President TAFT. Don't misunder-
stand me in this, however, and
make it appear that | am for Taft
because | thought Roosevelt would
not run again. | am great ad-
mirer of Mr.. Taft and believe his
administration has accomplished
much. 1t has been a progressive
and constructive administration.
AS Cne of many instances, 1T
me speak of the new powers given
the interstate commerce commits
sion. The lew of 1907 gave it
limited powers, but the law passed
during Mr.. Taft 5 administration
makes it possible for the commits
sion to bring action withour com
plant. There are many other acts
OF equal, if not greater import
ance."
The senator expresse | himself as
we'll satisfied with nis political
fences in South Dakota. though he
he did not mention the names OF

MUSHERS' DOG was

Dawson, Y. T.--After i5 day. mushing on light snow, James East, mining expert, and Charley Mason. a Peel river Indian, struck Dawson recently. having crossed the Rockies and covered 25O miles of the wilderness here and the upper reaches of the Peel.
 The men are the first to reach here from that point since last spring. They worked hard ana were reduced to Marathon con- dition on arrival. but are in splen- did health.
 Starting with four dogs, the party lost one the first night out. and completed the remainder oS the long mush with three. The fourth dog turned back for homa during the night. On going back to trace it the next morning East and Mason found it's bones and the tracks of the wolves.

PUMPS GOLD
 FROM. WELL
Cleanup of Sieve at Exchange Weighs Seven Cents In Very
 Fine Gold

Another proof that the gravels of the moraine upon which Valdez is built contains gold, was fur nishcd yesterday at the Exchange. The pump at that place has be- come detached from it's point and sand is raised with the water. The water is strained through a fine sieve and it was by this means the latest evidence of the presence of gold was furnished.
 The sieve when cmpLicd yes terday contained about one -qliar- ter of a pan of sand. Some of those present suggested that the sand be banned to sec if it car ricd gold. The result was clean up which weighed seven cents when placed on the scales.
 The gold is very fine, as might be expected, the suction of the pump not being strong enough t0 carry many particles of gold up with the sand and water.
 This is only another dcmon- stration of the possibilities of the moraine as a dredging proposi- ton. The finding of gold brought up by pumps has ceased to be a novelty and has led many to spec ulate as to the extent of it's pres ence.
 Col. Daley, while here last sum- mer, expressed the belief that the moraine would yet be run through the sluices. He is an authority on Hydraulic and dredge mining and stated that if the flats of Valdez would produce 15c per yard the ground would be eagerly sought by dredge operators, who would consider $500 per acre a reason- able price. Ground yielding 25c per yard would be worth $500 per acre.
 The ground could easily be tested by the use of keystone drill and it is among the possibilities that great dredgcs may be work ing the gravcls of the flat before many years.
