SOUR SKIM MILK FOR CALVES.

That in summer time calves do as
we'll on sour skim milk as they do on
sweet will be interesting news to the
many farmers who have hitherto been
kept from raising calves by the expense
of keeping the milk sweet in hot wealth
er. This expense experiments carried
out by the department indicate to be
quite unnecessary. In winter it is true,
this is not quite so satisfactory. 1t chills
the calves and some of them drink it
with great reluctance. Very young
calves have even been known to refuse
it altogether. On the other hand it is
much easier to keep the milk sweet in
winter.
In the course of these experiments
sour skim milk was fed to % calves al
different seasons of the year. In no
case did it cause digestive disturbances
even when the change from sweet to
sour milk was made abruptly when the
calves were only few days old. II
seems, therefore, that the common idea
that sour milk leads to scours is quite
unfounded.

MORE FOSSILS FOUND.

Dallas, S. D.-The attention of geolo-
gists is again being attracted to this part
of the state by the recent discovered fos.
silzed remains of ancient birds, reptiles
and big vari colored shells such as are
usually found on ocean beaches. The
discoveries seem to indicate that the
Rosebud country was one large inland
sea.
Persons digging we'll here recently
found large shell, shaped like an ocean
clam, delightfully."- colored and in perfect
condition. 1t was imbedded in solid
earth 80 feet below the surface and had
probably been preserved deep in the
earth for thousands of years.
Other evidences of ancient animal life
even more remarkable are being discov-
cred in the fats in McNeeley township,
where streak of mari and magnesia
earth formation appears, containing an
apparently endless supply of fossil de-
posits. When taken out these fossils are
soft, but soon harden in the air.

Short Cut to Yellowstone Park Nearing
Completion. Forest Service
Making Final Survey.

The forest service has q crew at work
this week making final survey Of the
Buffal o. Hazelton road, preparatory to
completing construction work begun
last summer. This strip of road, cross
ing the Bighorn national forest. forms
an important link in the black and vel.
low trail leading from Belle Fourche,
through Sundance, Moorcroft, Gillette,
Buffalo, Hazelton, Hyattville, Basin and
Cody to the east entrance of the Yellow
stone National Park
According to forestry officials, the
completion of this road comprises one
of the most important road projects in
the national forests of the west. The
successful outcome of the black and
yellow trail is said to have depended to
great extent upon this stretch Of
road, leading as it does across the Big
Horn mountains, and the work accom-
plished last year fully demonstrates the
feasibility of the route. With the COM
pletion of the work this year the Black
and Yellow trail will be placed on the
map.
Not only will the advantages of this
road be felt along its route but by tour
lists from Colorado points as well. The
Denver-National Park trail connects
with this new road at Buffalo and per-
sons desiring short cut to the park

TO PLANT MEMORIAL TO ALAMO.

Prof Shigetaka Shigo, the eminent
Jap geographer, traveller and author
will come to the United States this fall
to address the American Historical So.
ciety at Washington, d. c. and will full.
fill during his visit long cherished de.
sire to erect memorial at San Antonio,
Texas, on the grave of the famous Bon
ham whose defense of the Alamo with
his heroic band of Texans is one of the
landmarks of American history.
DR.. Shigo's admiration of Bonham is
an old story. The famous defense of the
Texans fred his imagination and when
he discovered in Jap history an almost
exact parallel in the battle of Narashino
his ambition grew to commemorate the
great admiration the story of the Alamo
had awakened in a Japanese schoolboy.
He will bring with him two blocks of
stone from the battlefield of Narashimo.
A Jap poem which he has composed in
honor of Bonham's defense will be cary
ed on one of the stones which will boil
be erected over Bonham's grave.

Many Tourists Coming.

The systematized scheme of advertis-
ing which has been entered into by the
commercial clubs of the various cities
and towns of the Black Hills is com
mencing to show material results. The
scheme was intended to call the atten-
ton of the outside world to the resourc-
es of the Black Hills and to the advan-
tages of the region as place of recrea.
ton and resort. 1t is accomplishing
its object and to An extent scarcely ex-
pected by those who were most sanguine
of its efficacy, says Pioneer-Times.
The results of the plan, as they bear
upon the mineral developmc.s of the
Black Hills, must necessarily come
gradually, but even they are already
noticed and will be in striking evidence
before many months have passed. 1t is,
however, in connection with the adver-
tising of this district as place ofresort,
as Mecca for tourists, that the immed-
late results are most prominently appar-
ent. The hotel registers of Deadwood
bear convincing evidence in this regard
The tourists are focking in as they
never did before at this season of the
year and the hotels are now and have
been for two weeks taxed to their
capacity.
Two years ago there was scarcely any
evidence of an influx of tourists much
before August l; last year they COM
menced to come toward the latter part
of July, but this year they are now here
in goodly numbers and have been COM
ing since Immediately after July 4. 1t is
conservatively estimated that the tour
ist trade is 100 per cent greater than it
was year ago at this time and it is
certain to increase materially from now
on until the middle of August and per-
haps until the end of that month. 1t is
not only in Deadwood that this condi-
ton is noted but throughout the entire
Black Hills district it is a subject of
common talk. Lead, Spearfish, Spear
fish canyon, Sylvan lake, Hot Springs
and various other points that are picked
as resorts by tourists are getting their
share of the patronage and are prosper
ing accordingly. Such advertising as
was given the Black Hills in the Phila-
delphia Record several weeks ago is of
incalcuable value and it is the purpose
of the commercial organizations of the
district to vigorously pursue the cam
paign which they have started, know
ing that they are practcing no decep-
tion on the public when they advertise
the Black Hills as the one ideal summer
resort of the North American continent.

Money For Range Extension.

A concerted effort is to be pade the
coming year to bring into use all of the
remaining unused ranges in the nation
al forests under the jurisdiction of the
Denver Office of the forest service This
announcement is made today by local
forest officers following the allotment of
a special fund by the Washington Office
to carry out the project.
According to forestry officials the
department has sought to utilize all of
the accessible forage resources as far
as possible consistent with the interests
OF timber and water conservation, and
the permanent use of the ranges them
selves. Consequently practically all of
the accessible areas within the national
forests of Colo, Wyo., and S. OAK, are
now annually allotted to the livestock
industry. What few ranges remain
vacant are unallotted either because
of their inaccessibility and lack of local
demand, or because they are necessarily
closed owing to the presence of plants
injurious to stock, or through lack of
requisite water. In order to overcome
these adverse conditions and to open up
all of the accessible grazing areas a
special fund has been allotted to the
district forester in addition to the
regular annual range improvement al
lotment. This special fund will be ex-
pended only on such forests as have
unused ranges that may be made useful
through the construction of additional
trails, drift fences, and through wa.
ter development and like means.

the Masons and for Masons of all the
world is the dream of DIR. Edward
Buckley of Chicago, who was in Sioux
Falls yesterday to explain the purpose
of his plan to the local lodge, says the
Argus-Leader. Throughout his stay
here, the flag of the proposed Masonic
republic which is to be located on the
northwest coast of Africa, on territory
controlled by the Moorish tribes of
Morocco was flying above the Carpen-
ter hotel and at the Masonic temple.
The emblem has circular plane of
blue, surmounted by white figures of a
square and compass with star in the
center, on an orange background.
my intention" said DR.. Buckley, "is
to establish purely Masonic govern
ment and all offices. except that of pres
ident and cabinet, are to correspond
to Offices in the Masonic order. l am
now arranging for the purchase of three
cruisers and the establishment of an
army of 1000 men. Not that we ex-
pect to have serious need of any of
these, but they will be necessary for
state occasions"
DR.. Buckley announced his plan for a
government cabinet as follows:
President of the Masonic republic, Ed
war6 Buckley, secretary of state to the
English grand lodge, unnamed; assist
ant secretary of state to the German
Masons, DR.. E. l.. Strom of Landau,
Germany; End Asst. Secy of state to the
French Masons, unnamed, secretary of
instructions to the Netherlands or the
Swedish Masons, unnamed; Assist Secy
to the Welsh Masons, unnamed; End
Assist. Secy, Moorish Masons, unnamed.
The attorney general will be selected
from the English grand lodge, and an
Irishman will be selected as private
secretary to the president.
An American will be chosen as grand
master of the grand lodge of Masonic
City. President Buckley has not yet
decided whether the grand secretary of
the grand lodge of Masonic City will be
Dane or Norwegion.

goes through not only will there be no
hunting permitted for decade but
campers will be required to give their
