Enlarged Homestead Measure.

Rapid City.-Advices received at the
local land office from the interior de-
partment indicate a favorable attitude
toward extending the enlarged home
stead act to the remaining govern
ment lands in western South Dakota.
1t seems entirely probable that a con
g~ressional enactment to thios effect
will be forthcoming within a shor
time.
South Dakota could easily have been
included in the enlarged homestead
region at the time the original meas
ure was enacted, but was eliminated
from the bill by special effort of the
states delegation in congress at that
time. It is now generally claimed that
this elimination involved very faulty
judgment with reference to the welfare
of the western part of the state.
The South Dakota legislature, at the
last session, adopted a resolution ask
ing that the unentered lands in South
Dakota be listed as subject to the full
section privilege, and such a bill is
now pending. The bill permits of the
land being used for grazing purposes,
without the present requirement as to
cultivation. Persons h have previ-
ously AXE a homestead of 100 acres
are granted the additional right on
these lands to complete an entry of
$40 acres.
In harmony with the suggestion Of
the interior department, Receiver Har-
ry L.. Candy, of the local LAND office,
is communicating with homesteaders
for suggestions that will help to perfect
the measure.

Seeks to Defer New Rate.

Pierre.-The state railroad commits
sioners have entered a request with
the interstate commerce commission
to defer putting into execution the or
der of the railroads for an increase OF
2 cents per 100 pounds on all cattle
shipments going east. This raise in
rates would make thousands of dollars
increase in rates in South Dakota
alone, and the railroad commission will
endeavor at a hearing to get the mat
ter abated.
The commissioners have also order.
ed that claims for damage and losses
may be sent to railroad companies up
to April 1, regardless Of the fact that
the loss may hav occurred more than
four months 90. For about a year
past all bills of lading have contained
injunctions that loss claims must be
submitted within four months to the
railroad offices. Some claims have not
been filed in accordance with that pro-
vision through ignorance on the part
of shippers as to the new regulation.
This order of the railroad commission
ers to allow all such bills to be sent
in to railroad departments up to April
l will furnish some protection in such
cases.

Pierre.-Doane Robinson, supervisor
OF census, is beginning preparations
for securing as complete a ensus as
possible for the third state census Of
South Dakota. In this line he is call
ing upon the farmers to assist in the
work of securing reliable figures for
that document. So far as production
In the state is concerned the censu
must depend upon the production of
1914, as the work is taken as the date
of May 1, 1915. For the purposes Of &C
curacy he takes the position that it is
especially important that complete and
accurate data pertaining to the acre
age and yield of all crops grown this
year be kept, as well as the produc-
ton of poultry, eggs, butter. milk, fruit
and vegetables, produced and sold, to
the end that the third census may be
reliable. No one can contribute so
much to the value of the census as
can the farmers of the state, by TAX
ing thought now in the matters of
production. The cooperation of every
one is earnestly solicited in this move
ment.

USE MILK FOR THE SHAMPOO
Luxuriant Hair Of italian peasant
Women Said to Be Largely Due
to This Custom.

The Italian peasant women near We

which Is responsible for their beautl-
full long hair. Nine. Carolina White
of the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Grand
Opera company, when travelling
through Italy two years ago., noticed
the luxuriant, silky growth of hair Pc
culiar to the peasant women near
Naples. Upon inquiry as to what they
used on their hair, she learned that
a milk massage was all they ever In
dulped in. and she has since used the
recipe with great success.
A very small quantity of good milk
should be used, and should be thor
oughly rubbed in by massage, just as
any other tonic. The fat in the milk
is said to stimulate the growth OF the
hair. The peasant girls use this sham
poo daily, they told Nine. White.

None of you, l suppose, when you
sign the new Chronicle insurance
coupon, think of William Gibbons,
though you certainly ought to. For
William, who deserves to be better
known, was the first man to insure his
life. This policy was made in June,
1883, and was for the sum of 1883 6sA
3d., for IL months, 16 underwriters
dividing the risk. And this first pol
Icy also produced the first insurance
law case, for when William died, IN
the following May, the underwriters
attempted to maintain that IL months
meant IL periods Of % days, and had
to be taken into court before they
would pay up.-London Chronicle.

eompadour Patterns Attractive

P~ompadours show a background of
one color with a design of another, as,
for instance, a ground of soft flesh
pink, with a large, loose, soft design
of green literally scattered over the
material. A mauve background will
be enhanced by a black or white fig
ure; a coral ground shows a gray fig.
ure; a yellow ground, a blue figure.
These contrasts sound striking to talk
of, but they are SO ~cleverly worked out

UAkOTA'S FUEL SSfrLT
Question Is Discussed at the Conserva-
ton Congress.

bSt SSfiS
Sioux Falls.-Each succeeding Ses-
sion of the South Dakota Conservation
congress now being held in Sioux
Falls was distinguished by a larger
attendance.
At the third session topics Of spe-
cial interest to all who are interested
in the development of South Dakota
along all lines We're brought up and
discussed. George R. Grant, of the lsa-
bel mines in northwestern South Da-
kota, spoke on "Our Ignite Supply"
THE question of the fuel supply"
said Mr.. Grant, sis vital to the state.
The fact that the supply has been con-
sidered as limited has kept many a
ufacturers out of the state, retarded
the building of railroads, caused mil
lions to be expended annually in the
purchase of fuel from n~eighboring
states, and their fuel is no better than
much of that to be found within the
confines of South Dakota" He called
attention to a government bulletin
which set forth that there are 5000
square miles of Ignite deposits in
South Dakota, and estimated the con-
tents at 10, 900, 900 short tons. These,
the speaker pointed out, are practical
ly untouched.
One of the important propositions
brought before the congress was the
urging of the enactment of a law Of
fering an inducement to every school
district in South Dakota to conduct
at least ten public meetings a year at
which the people themselves should
discuss all sorts of problems involving
the interests and welfare of the home,
the school, the farm, the store and the
factory.

Pierre.-That the prairie in this part
of the Missouri valley will receive a
good soaking from melting snow this
spring, is indicated by the reports
from the snow blanket which reaches
north from this city, being about a
foot in depth just owe the hill, and
reaching two feet in the vicinity OF
Laurel, in northern Suiiy county. Fol-
several years the lack of melting snow
in the spring caused a slow start OF
grass on the prairie, but with so much
snow it is certain that the grass will
get an early start this year.
