PROFITABLE
FARMING
Cheyenne Agency Getting TO The Front
as a Productive Center

Cheyenne Agency Getting 10 the Front
as a Productive Center
Tuesday evening the editor of
The Press had the pleasure of a
sramble' thru the extensive gar
dens and farm connected with the
government boarding school at
Cheyenne Agency, in company
with Mr.. Harry Powell, the princi-
pal of the school. and there were
so many objects of interest worthy
of note that it is too much to at
tempt to do them Justice in the
brief space of news item.
Over fifty acres L in cultiva-
tion. divided as follows: cane IA
acres; corn 10, oats 8. garden 6.
millet 3, alfalfa 10. A large part
of the corn and cane is eight feet
high and over, while the oats and
milIet will average nearly three
feet. The former stood nearly
two feet above our heads as we
walked thru it. A large section
of these crops are on ground that
was once the site of the SOld Folks
Home which was abandoned two
years ago.
One field Of oats was sown as a
nurse crop with alfalfa, next to
the Agency, on land that was for
merly the school garden. This
plot is to he devoted to alfalfa,
with a setting of forest trees, ten
foot elms having been planted on
it last spring; and a field of cane
has grown over six feet high in
sixty days from time Of planting.
The garden has been changed to
a clearing in the timber on the
bank of the river, a short distance
below the pumping station. Part
Of this is planted to apple trees. Sc
of them now having a vigorous
growth. The way everything was
growing here showed that the soil
was of the very richest kind. Ad-
joining this garden on the west is
to be the Agency's romantic spot,
viz: mo Heart Park, the plans
for which have been completed,
and the work is to he started this
fall.
Our limited space prevents us
from noting the stock and many
other interesting features, which.
we will have to leave to the future.
Mr.. Powell has made a record at
other schools where has been as a
successful farmer, his last school,
OF Lower Brule, having won sew
eral prizes last year at the Mitchell
Corn Palace. A large share ofthe
credit for the good showing is also
due to MIRO. S. Cox, who has been
in charge Of the work of planting
and cultivating, his assistants be-
ing the boys of the school.

owing to the size of the chapel where
the pictures were shown 1t was necessary
to have two shows.

Just after dinner. The men marched from
the mess hall under command of sergeants
at arms of the Golden Rule Brotherhood.
There were no guards with them. neither
were there any guards on duty In the
chapel.
The pictures gave n vivid idea OF actual
war scenes and MIR. Wilson of THE EVE
NiNG Sun bureau gave a graphic descrip-
tive lecture. Between the reels a quartet
composed of inmates sang. and after the
first show Warden Osborne made a short
address complimenting the men on their
good behavior and then left to deliver

Cobb. as s pretty commonly known, Is
just back from Belgium. lie went over
there. according To his own account, to
make some observations on the general
business OF fighting. but found himself
to be the chief OF the observed. The Ger
man army, In a word. kept much closer
watch on him than he found II possible
to keep on the German army. which re-
suited finally in his forcible detention
under suspicion Of being a spy.
Cobb has a good deal to say about the
alleged atrocities committed by Germans.
As soon as he heard OF Them and was
free to move az he listed he started an
investigation into the reports. on his
trip he travelled extensively In the wake
Of the German advance and interviewed
many peasants, town officials and cti-
zens In consequence he believes the
foundation OF the reported atrocities is
IN his possession. lie Is going TO divulse
his belief IN this regard tonight.
