DRUNKEN ROW AT STURGIS

Sturgis, S. D., April-Sturgis was
the scene of wild disturbance on
April S, when a dozen soldiers from
Fort Meade INDUCED in a riot IN
Liant Merritt's licensed saloon. They
entered the drink shop bent on trou-
Bile and were not long in raising it.
An argument of an unimportant char
acter developed into row, in which
Merritt and c. L. Bradford tried to
preserve order, but were set upon by
the rioters and badly beaten up. The
soldiers drew guns and used them TO
pound the two saloon men on the
heads.
The riot finally was carried into the
street and the single police officer on
duty secured some help in an effort
to quell it. One shot was fired by the
soldiers, but no one was injured. Two
of the soldiers were arrested, but the
other ten escaped before they could
be taken into custody.
The people are ho1lering for more
policemen to take care of the continu-
Gus round of trouble growing out Of
the licensed saloon.
The voters licensed the saloon and
this is what they get for it.

THOUSANDS OF
AVAILABLE HOMESTEADS
Western Canada's Homestead
Area Being Increased.

The great rush for homesteads
whenever a reservation Is opened by
the L. s. government reveals the fact
that there Is a great desire on the
part Of the American people to get
land. The fact that tens OF thousands
are on hand at every opening, and on
ly a few hundred homesteads are
available shows that the avail
able agricultural lands which are
in the gift OF the government are rap
idly diminishing. In addition TO this
agricultural lands that are OF proved
value have advanced In price to such
an extent that II becomes a serious
question 20 the man with moderate
means who intends to go into farming,
where he shall go. Fortunately there
is yet to be- had in Western Canada,
either In Manitoba. Saskatchewan or
Alberta. thousands Of free hoinesteads
OF 100 acres each, which may be had.
by the simple process OF Hing. paying
a ten dollar entrance fee, and living on
IL for six months each year for three
years. There is no necessity to make
a long, tedious and expensive journey,
only 10 find you have one chance in
fifty of getting what you want. Al
though this demonstrating has been
going on Ia Canada for a number Of
years. and hundreds Of thousands OF
them have been taken by hundreds OF
thousands OF Americans, there re-
mains sufficient to last for some time,
and Of as good land as any that has
yet been taken up. In fact, In the
opinion Of very many, those that are
left are OF the best. They comprise
lands that give the opportunity to in
dulge in the growing Of grain. wheth-
or Il be wheat, oats, barley or flax,
but In addition these lands are admir-
ably adapted for mixed farming, a
class OF farming hat is certain to give
better returns than that of all grain
growing. Cattle thrive and fatten on
the nutritious grasses; dairying car
be- carried on successfully; timber for
building Is within reach, and water IS
easy TO get. These lands are located
in the park districts of any OF the
three provinces; grOycs OF trees in
tcrspcrse the landscape and give II a
beauty that can only be attained In
the more open prairie sections by the
planting OF trees. Tree culture by the
way is being carried on to a great ex-
tent. Besides these free grant lands
there are lands which may be had by
purchasing from railways and private
companies and individuals. These
lands nave not increased in price az
their productive qualities and their To-
cation might have warranted. and may
still be had a. reasonably low prices
and on easy terms. The crop in West
ern Canada in 1913 was one OF the
best OF the number of good crops that
that country has raised Wheat has
been reported with yicla1 Of from 80
