BUY FROM HOME MERCHANTS.

Don't expect the impossible of your
town and its merchants. Be sure first
before you complain of the goods and
prices of home merchants, that you
haven't had hand in making it i'm.
practicable for our merchants to handle
the kind of goods you want at the prices
you can pay. Merchants are not mind
readers, nor are they blind to their own
best interests. II they haven't what
you want they will get it for you at as
low or lower price than you can get it
anywhere else. They deserve an op-
portunity to do SO. anyhow; but If they
do not deserve it, you will be doing
yourself bigger favor than you will be
doing them to deal face to face with
men you know and that can be held per-
sonally accountable for their promises
and performances. You cannot find
better goods than you can buy right here
in Custer.

BLACK HILLS TIMBER
Valuable For Paper-Experiments by New
York Herald Proves
Successful.

Unusual interest is attached by local
forestry officials to the successful results
Of the operative tests recently made by
a large metropolitan daily to determine
the possibilities of various substitutes for
spruce in the manufacture of news print
paper. AS announced short time ago,
the New York Herald arranged with
the forest service to print part of one
OF its daily issues on paper made from
pulp produced at the forest service wood
pulp laboratory at Wausaa, Wisconsin.
A preliminary report just received at
Denver headquarters of the service an
nounces the results of these tests.
Among the successful runs were papers
made from several species of trees COM
mon to this region, including lodgepole
pine, western yellow pine, douglas FIR,
alpine fir, and engelmann spruce. These
species constitute almost entirely the
timber stands in Colorado, Wyoming
and the Black Hills of South Dakota.
Because lodgepole pine and engel-
mann spruce reach only comparatively
small size, they are not considered as
valuable for sawtimber as western yell
low pine and douglas FIR, and while there
is demand for them as mining and
railroad tie material, it is the opinion
of local forest officers that these two
species will be used extensively in the
future for the manufacture of paper.
How soon it will be profitable to use
them will depend it is said, upon the
rapidity with which the supply of pulp
timber farther east is exhausted.
1t is particularly interesting to note
from the preliminary report that alpine
fir, commonly known as balsam through
out this region, was one of the two spe-
cies of seventeen included in the test
giving the best results. This tree has
long been looked upon by local lumber.
men as undesirable for lumber and since
it is found to be valuable for pulp its
utilization for this purpose should de
velop rapidly when the paper pulp in
dustry is established in this region.
The print paper problem has been a
matter Of much concern to newspaper
publishers for number of years. The
excessive price of print paper at this
time is due to the scarcity of material
and it is quite likely that paper mills
will be located near this city within a
short time. The output of several large
mills would not exceed the demand and
the price of print paper would be re-
duced considerably.

SCHOOL NOTES.

On account of the disagreeable wealth
er last Friday the tournament was post
poned and held on Monday after the
last recess. The games and contests
were held in small park among the
pines about quarter of a mile west of
the school house. All rooms took part
in the tournament. The Primary room
held backward running races in which
Joe Pyne won the first grade. and John
Pyne the second grade race. Of the In
termedates, the third grade held a one
legged race, the fourth grade foot race
and the fifth and sixth an arrow-shoot-
ing contest. John Fox won the one
legged race, Rex Barnes the foot race
and William Pyne excelled In arrow
workmanship. After the nail driving
contest by the high school girls, the
horseshoe contests took place. May
Wilkinson won first place, Clara Robin
son second and Leona Meeker "booby."
The horseshoe throwing contests were
to be participated in by both Grammar
room and High School but because of
the late hour, the formers contest was
not held. 1t has been planned to have
it at some other time. In the High
School, the teams of Charles Fox and
Eric Heidepriem won the preliminaries
and the latter took first place in the
finals. Prizes ranging all the way from
peanuts and candy to horseshoes were
given to the winners.
~
Mr.. Kess wishes to thank all those
who have contributed to make the de-
clamatory contest q success. He has
understood the disadvantage under
which the school has been laboring in
having no pupils at all with experience
in deciamatory work.

The Primary and Second intermediate
rooms had no tardiness last week.

what settled at present, however, and
the green grass is starting in fine shape.
Everybody is very optimistic about the
crop outlook.
Saturday F. E. Serry submitted his
petition for the rural mail route to Post
Master Stanley, who reported favorably
on it, and in turn submitted 1t to the
Fourth Assistant Post Master General
at Washington. 1t will take about a
month before the road is inspected, and
it will probably be two months before
service will begin. This route accom-
modates about eighty families in Custer
and Fall River county, and will be the
first rural route out of Hot Springs. Il
is hoped that enough more will join to
make it daily route, and indications
look good for the realization of such &
hope.

HAS BEEN PROGRAMMED

Rapid City is assured of the continu-
ance Of the operations of the big lumber
company, which was temporarily put
out Of business by recent fire. Here
after, however, it will not be known as
the Lamphere-Heinrichs company, as
in the past, but as the Warren-Lamb
Lumber company, which name it has
taken under a reorganization recently
effected. H. w. Warren has bought out
the interests of Harbeson and Crawford
and now has control of the stock. The
capital stock of the company has been
increased from $l50,00O to $3.50, 900.

tunity for the securing of additional
funds, enough to operate it's business on
a more extensive scale.
The destroyed saw mill will be replac
ed by one of larger capacity, at Rapid
City, on the site occupied by the former
liant. The new mill will have a capa-
city of 10000, 600 feet year; the old mill
had capacity of from l2,O00,00 to i5,-
100000. The new machinery has been
contracted for and Isis expected it will
be delivered within month. The COM
pany has two contracts with the govern
ment for the purchase Of timber; one
calling for 100000, on which they
were working when the fire occurred.
and another for 100, 100000 feet, none of
which has been cut as yet.-Pioneer-

Immediately afterward, in a second
