truthfully said of Bill that he never
shot a man without giving him an
even break, and the writer knows of
one desperate who "got there" first,
and shot Tilghman through the Shout

Bill was alive.
The writer has known Tilghman in

knows the Bill Tilghman of today. He

friends, and his friends love him. He
will make the greatest of sacrifices for
a friend and his friends who will sac

less in the discharge of his duty under
all circumstances. His life of sobriety
and outdoor activity has enabled him
to fully retain his mental and physical
strength. He is today, notwithstanding
his long service, as active and yigor-
Gus as any man in Oklahoma.

Bill Tilghman, Last of the Wild
Westerners, U.S.. Marshal for Oklahoma

st. Joseph (Mo.) News Press: When
President Wilson appoints bill"
Tilghman. to the position Of United
States marshal for Oklahoma, he will
round out the life Of usefulness of one
of the most noted frontiersmen in the
world.
William Tilghman was born in Fort
Dodge, Ia, in 1854, and moved with
his parents to Atchison, Kan, in 1856,
at q time when Atchison was just a
trading point. In 1870 he crossed the
Arkansas river at Wichita, which city
was at that time a village of half a
dozen houses. From 1870 to 1875 he
was employed in scouting and in kill
ing buffalo In Kansas and Oklahoma.
He located in Dodge City, Kan, in
1875, and was twice city marshal and
once sheriff, filling both of these Of
fees with credit at q time when a
man took his life in his hands the
moment he took the oath of office, as
Dodge was then the headquarters for
all the desperadoes and gunfighters of
the west. He knew Boot Hill"
when it was the burying ground of
outlaws and bad men who died with
their boots on, and he a Witnessed
the rise of the splendid high school
which now adorns its summit. He
was scout and guide under Gen. Phil
Sheridan at the time of the visit of
the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia to
this country, and was chief guide in
a buffalo hunt arranged by General
Sheridan for that distinguished guest.
Bill Tilghman is a remarkable
man, and a always been master of
himself under all circumstances. He
never tasted intoxicants of any kind,
as drink W. appealed-to him, and
no officer of that day and country
could dring and survive. In a meas
ure this may explain why he has not
been killed. though he has gone
through many gun fights with men
whose sole purpose was to kill. 1t is
from the lives of such men that ro-
nance is made.
Tilghman was a government scout
under Gen. Nelson A. Miles during
the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indian
war of 1874, and was in the campaign
against Chief Dull Knife when the In
dams broke away from eantonment
and made their escape, marking with
blood and fire the settlements Of
Kansas and Nebraska. Tilghman's
home was burned and all his cattle
killed by this murderous band Of In
dams. In 1882 Mr.. Tilghman settled In
Oklahoma and was at once appointed
deputy United States marshal by VIII
liam Grimes, thus taking to a. calling
that q made him famous AS a hunter
Of outlaws Of the most desperate kind.

ALFALFA FACTS
Brookings Register:

Brookings Register:
/ have been interested n the recent
discussion in your paper regarding
alfalfa in Brookings county. The fol-
lowing yields were obtained last year
on the college farm by the agronomy
department by ordinary field methods.
Bulletin 1873 gives the averages for a
number of years, and can be obtained
free by any or all who wish it. A type
written circular telling how to grow it
is also free for the asking. One of the
best fields made 5.07 tons per acre.
Ten other fields in a variety test aver
aged 3.3 tons per acre. Four OF these
We're five years old. Six of them were
four years old. The four year old
fields averaged about one ton per acre
less than the five year old old fields
None of these fields were MANFRED or
fortified. / trust the above figures
may be of interest to your readers who
are planning to grow alfalfa. The
yield of alfalfa like that of any other
crop is fixed by the amount and distri-
button of the rainfall and by the fer
tility Of the soil. A black or dark loan,

and phosphate is capable of producing
