Rrookings S. d. June 1e,-Give the

grass will get so strong that 1T Will

When cut too often the roots OF tne
blue grass are starved and lose their
vitality because they do not receive the
plant food which is manufactured py
the leaves. The only way to strengthen
the roots is to leave the tops alone.
However. public opinion is 50 strong
that this advice probably will not be
followed. This is stated as a demon
strated fact and one may do as he likes
in his matter. :,

PLAN CENTENNIAL Of
FORT PIERRE OPENING
Oldest Continuous Settlement
in South Dakota to Cele-
brate Next Fall.

Pierre, S. d. June 1S.-The Tooth am
niversary of the permanent settlement
at Fort Pierre, will be celebrated in the
autumn.
In the fall of 1917 Joseph LaFrambois
q mere youth. trading under the license
of Joseph Rolette, at Prairie du Chen,
came across to the Missouri, and es-
tablished a small trading post at the
month of the Teton tBad) river, at its
junction with the Missouri river.
1t is uncertain whether it was north
or south of the Bad. Tradition says. on
the north side, but the extensive grows
on the south side makes it more prob
able that it was there
This post was continued until 1922,
when the Columbia Fur company built
Fort Tecumseh, a mile and a half fur
Their north, n absorbed the trade. La
Frambois then went over and built a
post at the present site of F~landreau,
OF .he Sioux River.
Fort Tecumseh at the Fort Pierre set
Element was continued until 1923, when
h river threatened to undermine it,
and Fort Pierre Choteau was built by
the American Fur company, which a
succeeded to the business of heC Column
bia Fur company, and the business was
continued there until 1855, when the
post was sold to h government, and
the fur company built a new post
known as New Fort Pierre, a little far
Their up the Missouri river, which in
1862 was hold to the Hubell people of
st. Paul, and where trade was con-
tinued until the Black Hills gold x
citement built the village Of Fort Pierre
upon it's present site.
This is much the oldest continuous
settlement in South Dakota, and two
years older than the Fort Smelling set
Element on the Mississippi. In connec-
ton with this anniversary the depart
ment of history sent Charles F.. DeLand
to st. Louis, last fall where he secured
the journals and letter books kept at
Fort Tecumseh and Fort Pierre, and
these are being carefully edited fortt:se

materials Of history to be published
