SYLVAN LAKE CHANGES
Black Hills Hotel Co. New Owners
Two Hundred Room Concrete
Hotel to be Erected.

If the contents of q handsome and
costly advertising booklet can be a cri-
terion, and there seems no reason to be-
lisve otherwise, Sylvan Lake will be
equipped in the near future to such an
extent that will place it above most of
the summer resorts of the United States.
The Black Hills hotel Co., of Chicago,
are the advertisers, and the commonly
accepted belief in this vicinity is that
the lake and appurtenances have been
sold to these Chicago gentlemen. The
booklet sets forth the proposed new ho-
tel, which will be the equal of any other
hotel in South Dakota in size and equip
ment, with 200 rooms, sun parlors, bill
lard room for ladies and ono for gentle
men, private dining rooms and grill.
Plumbing, heating, ventilating and
lighting, the latter by electricity, as well
as other metropolitan features, will
make the hotel absolutely modern in all
details. A large new club house model.
ed after the city club rooms, will be
built to supply guests with refreshments
and to provide them with opportunities
for bowling, playing pool, billiards and
other games. The hotel will be open
from May 18th to November 3Oth, the
close of the hunting season. The hotel
will be constructed of concrete, will be
fire proof, and will be near the site of
the present hotel, which will be recon-
structed into club house. The adver-
tising booklet presents several new pic.
lures of the lake and Harney regions,
and some of the views of the needles and
other scenic features are the best that
have ever been published regarding that
portion of the country.

EXPLOITATION OF GREEN
TIMBER FROM STATE.

During the past week it has been re.
ported about town that Government
timber could be purchased from the For
est Service and exported from the State
of South Dakota. In order to ascertain
definitely whether or not this rumor was
correct the CHRONICLE reporter asked
Forest Supervisor lines to give him the
latest information in regard to this mat
ter. Mr.. lines states that the situation
is as follows:
Heretofore each year when the Agri.
cultural Appropriation Bill was passed
by Congress, it contained clause which
prohibited the sale of all timber in the
Black Hills, except dead and insect in.
tested timber for the purpose of expor-
tion from the State. This clause made
it impossible for the Forest Service to
sell any green timber to those who de-
sired to ship the same from the State of
South Dakota. The reason this clause
was inserted in the Annual Appropria-
ton Bill was in order that the timber
might be retained in the State of South
Dakota for the use of local industries.
Mr.. lines states that he understands that
in the current Appropriation Bill, which
is at the present time being considered
by Congress for the Department of Agri-
culture, that thu clause which prohibits
the sale of timber for expectation from
the State has been omitted and that if
the Bill passes in its present form, tim
ber may, as soon as the Bill becomes
effective, be purchased from the Forest
Service for the purpose of sale in ada
cent states.
From the above those interested will
see that the law which will permit sx-
portation of green timber from the State,
is not yet effective, although We under
stand that our South Dakota Congress.
men are in favor of removing the rsstric-
ton heretofore contained in the Appro-
priation Bill.

dress before the state conservation con-

state could accomplish in stamping out
tuberculosis, if the institution at Custer

the appropriation of money enough to
enlarge the plant and equip it for the
care Of all patients who apply for treat
ment. In the course of a few months,
these patients return to the homes of
the state, missionaries for cleanliness
and sanitation and care, and in q few
