THE Federal League announces that
1t hopes to save more than a quarter
of a million dollars next year. The
statement is hard to reconcile with
with the oft-repeated assertion that
the Feds would sign up more big
league stars next season than they
did In 1914, but the Feds have no
parks to build this year.

Charley Doom turned down a
$4,000 offer from the Feds because
he prefers to remain in organized
baseball. Charley has something up
his sleeve He says he would rather
be with the Brooklyn Club than any
other, and 1t would be no surprise
If he landed there.

WOLF DEN FOUND.

For the past two or three months two
gray wolves in the vicinity of Montgom-
cry, Freeland and Heumphreus' ranches
have been committing many depreda
tions. Every few days they would kill
from one to two head of live stock be
longing to the ranchmen living in the
southwestern portion of Custer county.
AS result of the numerous losses, live
stock men living in that vicinity got to-
gether and decided to make determin-
ed effort to rid the country of the
wolves. During the past month or six
weeks on several different occasions all
of the ranchmen living in the vicinity
assembled and made a united effort to
round them up by the use of horses,
dogs, guns, traps and whatever assistance
they could bring into play. Several
round ups were held but with no further
success than that on each occasion one
big dog wolf and she would be sighted.
These two wolves, it was decided by
the ranchmen, were indeed old timers
and so very cunning that they were
able to elude the most skilful plans made
for their capture. Traps were set through
out the entire territory. On one occasion
she wolf lost two of her toes in trap.
The year before the same she wolf was
caught in trap and was able to loosen
fastenings and get away with it. AS a
result she was minus one front foot.
The systematic effort made by the
settlers, however. brought results last
week. This only shows that when man
sets his mind to accomplish certain re.
suit, he is able to outwit even such a
cunning animal as gray wolf. Mr..
Walter Mann who lives in the Elk
mountain territory, located the wolves
den week ago Friday and prompt
ly set three or four traps at the mouth
of the den and upon returning the next
morning he found the mother wolf safe
ly fastened in the traps and about Is or
20 feet back in the den a number OF
wolf pups. The hole was small but his
small boy crawled into the den and
brought out pups less than week old,
as their eyes were not yet open. The
cattlemen had previously agreed to give
a reward of $50 per head for the capture
of the old wolves and $40 per head for
the pups, therefore, it appears that Mr..
Mann will be rewarded approximately
$40 for his find.
An accurate account kept by the cat
tlemen shows that during the past six
months these two wolves have killed 80
head of live stock, causing loss estimat
ed at 5000. Had the pups grown to
maturity it would have taken a good
sized herd of cattle to have kept them
in fresh meat for II months. While the
dog wolf is still at large, it is hoped that
he will remove to other quarters, ,or that
the cattlemen will be successful in catch
ing him in one of the numerous traps
which have been set.

NOMINATIONS POSTPONED
Bull Moosers Decide to Meet Again in
June to Name Ticket-Time is
Given ALI to Sign Pledge!

After an all day wrangle at their con-
vention in Mitchell last week, over var
ious non-essentials. the delegates to the
bull moose state convention decided
late in the day by vote of 10,0l7 to
S,S79, not to put up ticket at this tune
but to postpone action until meeting
at Huron to be held about the first Of
June. The action taken was victory
for E. L. Sem, editor of the Deadwood
Telegram, who came to the convention
committed to the proposition that it is
too early now to name ticket. In
answer to a question put by o. S. Bas-
ford, Mr.. Sem declared that he was in
favor of naming a complete third par
ty ticket, but that he did not think the
time was ripe for it. Mr.. Basford ex-
pressed the opinion that there might be
some on the republican ticket who
would sign the "bull moose pledge" end
he said that he thought no candidate
should be put up against those who
sign. The pledge is as follows:
Believing in the principles of the
progressive party as set forth in it's con-
tract with the people, l hereby enroll as
a member of the progressive party of
South Dakota, and pledge my support to
its principles and organization"
How any candidate who is running
on the republican ticket can sign such
pledge. and remain on the republican
ticket, Mr.. Basford did not explain.
There was fight in the convention
over the plank in the platform de-
nouncing the policy of the Wilson adj
ministration on the free tolls issue. This
plank was retained by vote of l5 to Ia.

HON EsTEADERs BENEFIT
THROUGH NEW RULING


A decision has recently been handed
down by the secretary of the interior to
the effect that persons, who have or
who may hereafter apply for and make
homestead entry on the national forests
under the forest homestead act, will be
credited at inal proof for continuous
residence upon and cultivation of lands
occupied under special use permits, is
sued by the forest service, prior to actual
restoration of the lands to entry.
This ruling of the secretary re-estab-
fishes the original Interpretation placed
upon the law by Ex.secretary Garfield
but which was reversed by a decison
promulgated Jan. /, 1910. 1t is the
opinion of forestry officials that the new
decision will materially benefit all bona
fide settlers on the national forests, since
it places them upon an equal footing
with those making homes upon the pub.
lie domain. Considerable delay is fire.

In order to prevent any hardship on
account of this delay it is said to have
been the policy of long standing with
the forest service to issue to the ap-
plicant free special permit authorizing
him to occupy and use the land pending
its restoration to entry. This permit in
itself was of great advantage to the
homesteader since it enabled him to i'm.
prove and cultivate the land. The added
benefit of being able to accelerate patent

ly prove boon to a large number of
settlers seeking permanent homes on

Auburn, August 4.-,Special 1.-The far mers summer school at Auburn opened Monday with farmers from 37 counties of Alabama. Representatives from Lauder dale on the north to Mobile and Baldwin
 on the south, from Sumter on the west to Chambers on the east. Large delegations came in on every train. The indications from the opening show that the attend-
 ance will be as large ifs not larger than tbat of any previous year
 The opening lecture was given bv Dr. c. A. Cary on Permanent Pastures in Ala abama." He advised that Bermuda should be the basis of permanent pas lures and have on the same ground bur clover for winter He also advised using spring vetch and Augusta vetch because they will more readily reseed themselves than hairy vetch. He advised the use of less Japan clover, carpet grass black
 medic, and any of the other clovers that would grow-such as hop clover Caro- lima clover. and red clover The poor lands should be fertilized and brought up
 by cultivation and by the addition of humus to the soil before an attempt is made to secure permanent stand of Bermuda. After the pasture has been started 1t is very important to keep down the shrubs, bushes. and weeds, the most troublesome of which are alder, sumac
 sweet gum, black gum. blackberries and sometimes sassafras. The weeds that should be kept out are cypress, bitter
 weed, horse nettle, bull thistle. wild let
 tuce. rag weed. etc. In order to do this 1t is necessary to have the pasture so that it can be moved once or twice d year. The next lecture was delivered by Prof George Templeton on the four principal dairy breeds of cattle: Jerseys, Gurn- seys Aryshires and Holstens. He gave the characteristics of each breed, their variation in size, and the records made
 by each breed in milk and butter produc- ton.
 Professor Templeton was followed by Prof. N. A. Nagley. who discussed the
 making and handling of dairy products, and the methods of handling sweet milk and making and marketing of butter He gave comparative figures to illustrate
 the differences in selling sweet milk, cream and butter.
 Prof. E. l. Girton told the farmers how to prepare balanced rations with Ala
 bama feeds. He also told them how to give maintenance and productive rations to dairy cattle. He pointed out how the dairyman should study each individual animal and feed each animal according to it's productive powers The mainten- ance factor is more o. less constant
 while the productive factor in feed will
 vary with the grade of lactation and the productive power of the individual ami maj. The principles given will enable the farmers to utilize the feed to the greatest advantage and with the most profit.
 Following this lecture the farmers all went to the college farm, where Professor
 Girton directed the prize judging con-
