been a tendency to extend this decora-

SOCIAL CUSTONS OF THE CROW
INDIANS.

The Grow Indians are divided into thlr-
probably greater These groups are called
bv nickname-like designations such as
Whistlmg waters, They bring game without
having killed it. Kicked in their stomachs,
and so forth. Every individual belongs to
his mothers clan, and it is considered highly
improper to marry person OF ones own
clan, since all the manageable women OF
that group are reconed as belonging to the
individuals whose fathers belong to the same
clan stand to each other in a very special
relation, which for want Of a better name
may be called the Cooking relationship
They are privileged to play pranks and
practical Jokes on each other without giving
offense More particularly is it the func-
ton Of one of them to administer a singing
rebuke when the other has transgressedsome
rule Of tribal morality or etiquette. In such
a case the '.joker' will bide his time until
some public occasion arises. Then he will
boldly come forward and twit the culprit
with his deed in the face of the assembled
throng and to his utter discontinue.
Against this punishment there is no redress,
for nothing said by a joking relative can be
resented The only thing a man can do
is to wait for an offense on the part Of his
denouncer and then treat him to a dose of
his own medicine Another social custom
among Indian tribes, and also among the
natives Of Australia and Africa, is the
mother in law taboo. A man and his Wife's
mother never talk with each other, not from
of mutual respect Southern Workman.

REAL HELP FOR THE INDIANS.


The present Commissioner OF Indian Al
fairs. Cato Sells, of Texas, has not only
taken a keen and unusual interest in behalf
Of improving the social and educational con-
ditions Of the Indians, but he has succeeded
in commanding the country's interest to
this work There has never been time
when so intelligent and general an under
standing of the real Indian problem existed
among the public generally.
Especial attention, therefore, is likely to
be attracted to the announcement that the
Indian Service committee on courses OF
study for the Indian Schools has completed
preparation Of scheme which will give
direction to all this work in future Its
basis is the division of the school day into
two equal parts; one half day is devoted
to Industrial and the other half to academic
training. The boys are given practical
courses in farming, gardening blacksmith
ing, carpentering, dairy management, sad
dlery, ETC.; the girls in cooking, sewing,
like.
Uncle Sam does things of this sort we'll
because he provides necessary facilities, and
knows where to find experts to use them.
If the precise educational system that is
to be carried to the Indians of the younger
generation, could also be applied in the
rural schools of the country generally, it
would be one of the most practical services
that the Government could render. There
has been endless discussion of plans for
Government aid in vocational training, but
accomplishment has been meager. The eN
pertinent with the Indian schools should
be watched closely by all educators; it
promises to develop much that will help
in the proper expansion and Improvement OF
the schools everywhere.
It is, Of course, easier to do such work
for the Indian children than for the COM
munity generally because the Government
assumes that the Indians are destined to
country life They are going to be farmers;
thousands of them have already proved that
they make excellent farmers and most
useful citizens This presumption narroWs
the range of instruction for which provi-
sion must be made, and insures more etfec-
tive work Yet the plan that is being APP

 TO THE MAN THAT HAS ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO INVEST, Will sell a one-half interest in the townsite of St. Joe Colorado, now on the map, consists of 20 acres, only town site located on ten thousand acres of land. Land located in the Arkansas valley of Colorado. 27 miles east of Puebla. 25 miles west of Rockyford On the Missouri and Pacific and Santa Fe railroads.
 The Santa Fe Trail. National High way runs through the land
 The land joins on the east the Rocky ford high line canal out of the Askans as river and runs for 70 miles down the valley. Adjoining lands on the east and west are under irrigation and highly developed, and are held at from $150.00 to s25OO0 per acre. The ten thousand acres is square body of level mesa land, no levelng or clearing required, but ready for the blow. Soil choco- late colored sandy loam. A perfect mixed soil. Nothing finer anywhere. Gremma grass is the only growth on the land, growing from IS to "A inches tall. No cactus or sage brush. A flood water system of irrigation has been built for this land. Has three sources of water supply. Canal system IS miles long carry the waters to two large res ervoirs adjoining the land. The one reservoir has always been a natural lake with one of the water sources emptying into it.
 The land owners built their own sys- shares of water stock. Has been build ing for the past seven years and just now completed Costing over three hundred thousand dollars and all paid for. Not dollar of debt against the system and balance yet remaining in the treasury to the land owners credit. A perpetual water right fully paid and nonassessable goes with the land.
 Over three thousand acres now un- der cultivation and irrigation and i'm proved with buildings.
 The United Commercial Travelling Mems Association have a tract of over 200 acres set out to cherries in one solid orchard. About one-half of this land is owned by business and professional men in Pueblo and other parts of Col orado. These parties will option their land to me at prices ranging from $65.O to sS5.0O per acre. The land can be sold in tracts from 20 acres up, at pric- es from s75.OO to s10O0O per acre.
 The writer has had considerable land selling experience. Having been field agent at one time in running excursions from the east into Colorado and had full control of over thirty agents. The party who will purchase a one half in terest in the townsite of St. Joe will be taken in as a partner in the selling of the land. All sales on the town lots will be divided equally and all com missions on the sale of lands will be divided. Method of obtaining buyers will be by personal canvassing through the neighboring states and newspaper advertising in the localities being can vassed.
 This is an opportunity seldom offered at these figures and I will guarantee the investor to make him more money in one year than he will ordinarily in a life time
