INDIANS SELL FARMS
TNNEDIATELY UPON BEING
GRANTED DEEDS BY GOV
ERNMENT THEY SQUAN-
DER MONEY.

Wheeler, June MANY of the
Indians who recently participated in
the ceremonies at Yankton Indian
agency attendant upon deeds to gov
eminent land being turned over TO
them by Secretary Franklin X. Lane
in person, now are busy spending
their wealth for automobiles. The
money with which they now are pro-
vided was received from the sale Of
their farms to white purchasers after
they had received the deeds from the
government. In the last ten days
more than fifty of these Indians have
purchased automobiles from dealers
between Platte and Dante. They be
lieye that to be the owner of a buzz
wagon is far ahead OF being the own
err of a farm. AS the government has
no control over the sale of the lands
since the deeds were transferred To
the Indians. and as the money be
longs to the Indians themselves. gov
eminent officials can do nothing to-
ward preventing the redmen from
squandering their money Tor the
white mans devil wagons"

rent was turned off during the noon

from city streets some weeks ago.
New poles have already been in
stalled in the alley between Egan

MAKE AUTO TRIP TO BIG
STATE SCHOOL.

Prof. f. r. Walser, head of the
agricultural department of the high
school, and four members of the
Junior high school class. returned
this forenoon from Bookings, where
yesterday they visited the various de
partments of Bookings college.
Members of the college faculty
conducted the visitors from Madison
through the various departments of
the institution. including the live
stock and dairy barns.
Rare flowers and plants were
shown the students and their in
structor. The visitors also viewed
the bones of the elephant, which es-
capped from a circus, and was later
killed a short distance from Brook
ings. The college students were
served with elephant steak, following
the killing of the animal last week.
The bones are to be assembled and
the skeleton placed on exhibition at
the college.
The return trip to Madison was
made in n hour and forty minutes,
which is considered good time for the
3S-mile run, in view of the fact that
the roads between Madison and
Brookings are not in the very best
condition. Vertus Elfert. Raymond
Winesburg. Archie Carmichael and
Harold Walters accompanied Prof.
Walser.

warm dinner will be welcome"
Their appearance belied any
thoughts of WEAKNESS, however, for
they looked as fresh in their neat
khaki suits and broad trimmed hats
as if they had just arisen from a
pleasant nap, and the girls who were
members of the automobile party
from Sioux Falls who had overtaken
them, eyed the mixers Just the least
bit ~enviously.
The two young women, Miss Ma
tilda Kluge and Miss Inga Solberg,
of Colman, were met by the Sioux
Falls Automobiles first about ten
miles from Dell Rapids, and OF the
return trip the party overlook them
two miles out of Sioux Falls, and
their curiosity was aroused at seeing
them still walking along the road
they stopped and offered to take
them into Sioux Falls, only to learn
that they had left Colman at 6 a. m
reached Dell Rapids in time for
lunch, and expected to arrive in
Sioux Falls to enjoy "A Z O'Clock
