 Great Scouts ws,,on
0, Western Newspaper Union. FORSYTH'S SCOUTS, THE ORlG- INAL TROUGH RIDERS"

This is the story of 51 scouts, in- stead of just enc, for together they won undying fame in one of the fiercest battles ever fought with the Indians on the frontier. They were Forsyths Scouts, the Rough Riders of 1868" Gen. George A. Forsyth was their leader-"Sandy" Forsyth, he had been called in Civil war days.
 The scouts left Fort Wallace, Kan, in pursuit of a band of Dog Soldier Cheyennes who had been raiding in western Kansas. Early one Septem- Der morning while they were camped on the Arickaree river in eastern Colo rado the Indians appeared and tried to stampede their horses. As the scouts prepared to mount and give battle, Sharpe Grover, their guide, touched Forsyth on the arm. "Oh, heavens, general" he cried, Hook at the Indians!'
 In the next instant the surrounding hills and valleys were alive with saV- ages, who charged down upon the scouts, but were driven off by few volleys Surrounded and hopelessly outnumbered, there was but one thing for Forsyth to do. In the center Of the stream was little island on which grew few small trees. Make for the island men" shouted Forsyth "It'S our only chance"
 They reached the island just in time While Indian rifiemen along the banks of the stream poured in a hot fire, a picked body of 800 warriors led by the Cheyenne chief Roman Nose charged down upon them, intending to ride over Forsyth's band i'll one red wave of destruction. The Indians were beaten back, they settled down to besiege the scouts.
 Twenty-three of the 5l scouts haC been killed or wounded when evening came. Forsyth was suffering from three wounds and Lieut. Fred Beecher the second in command, had beer killed, as had the only surgeon in the command.
 For nine days. in spite of hunger and wounds, the little band of scouts beat off the Cheyennes, until two oi the scouts managed to slip through the Indian lines at night and guide force of cavalry to their rescue. Once Forsyth gave the unwounded scouts chance to try to escape, leaving hin and the other wounded to their fate but they refused. We've fought to gether, and we'll die together, if VIC must P was their heroic answer
 The island was named Beecher's island. in honor of their lieutenant and today monument stands on il to mark forever the place where For syth's Scouts fought so bravely.

The condition of Arkansas rice is one point below the ten-year av- craze of 90. As usual, some of the crop is late and quite grassy. but in the main producing sections it is close to average in promise. The expected yield is nearly 42 bushels per acre, with total production of 5,o5S,000 bushels.
 Those who desire apples will have to get along without Arkansas ap- pies this fall. There arc not enough in the state to supply local demands. The probability is that prices will be high, because the pres ent United States prospect is for not more than 21,000,000 barrel commercial crop, about two-thirds of an average crop, or two-fifths of full crop.

POTATO EXCHANGE BENEFITS
BOTH BUYER AND. SELLER

The worst difficulty the exchange Is
meeting is to have the potato grower
understand the Importance Of grading
his tubers. Heretofore he has been
selling field run potatoes, and forgets
that the potato buyer graded the pota-
toes as part Of his share In getting
them to the market. The exchange
has not the facilities at the central
shipping point to sort the potatoes,
and asks that this be done before the
product is Shipped, when It can be-
done at the least expense.
The grade is the assurance to the
buyer that he Is getting Just what he
wants. and allows the potatoes to be
sold by wire or letter, without the
usual inspection by the buyer before
the sale is made. II dealer buysa .
car Of United States Grade No. Early

no recourse II the potatoes Of the
specified grade are delivered In the.
time specified. II, however, the pota-

Among Western Sioux there was
u humiliating sort Of punishment
consisting Of making an offender
camp outside Of the circle. Thus
was man punished for such small
offenses as breaking some Of the
smaller tfibal rules, killing game In
discriminatory, disrespecting those
who had honorably won distinction,
or aged persons, or unfortunates, or
harshness to women, or failure to
take full interest in rearing or edu-
eating children, or for most any thing
that would tend to make the circle
Of the tribe smhller or weaker while
not in itself Of immediate drastic
danger to the tribe.
The fundamental lay Of all laws
was brave fidelity to the tribe and
nation, and ifsone fulfilled this one
law zealously he might dirregard
numerous ordinary rules freely. i
could cite almost numberless cases
showing this. And this gave some
white frontiersmen their erroneous
impression that the Sioux had one
code Of laws for one class Of people
and adifferent code for another class.
