Black War Bonnet Gets
Farm His Father Ownsd

Title to tract Of land, composed of
100 acres, homesteaded by his father,
Black War Bonnet, in 1878, has been
given to Joseph War Bonnet. Sioux
Indian Of the Ogalalla band, through
decision Of the Department Of the
interior. Originally, it was unsur-
veyed land, and Black War Bonnet
settled on the 160 acres. making I'm
provements costing over $500, and also
occupied the tract continuously for
three years. thus emitting him to own
ership. In 1879 he received . certif-
cate giving him complete possession Of
the piece Of land, upon which he con-
tinued to reside with his family until
dispossessed in 1882. In the same
year he died, leaving his wife and two
children. The wife and the other
child have since died, leaving Joseph
War Bonnet the only surviving heir.
For many years Joseph War Bon
net has been making efforts to obtain
possession Of the 160 acres of land
homesteaded by his father. but be-
cause it was withdrawn from the pub
lAS w III C4CCulAvC OI0CA ahh
for other reasons his petitions have
been denied by officials Of the general
land office.
Joseph War Bonnet in 1921 made an
appeal from all these adverse decisions
to the secretary Of the interior, and
final action was postponed pending
the examination OF witnesses and the
securing OF accurate description Of the
land. Several hearings have been held
In the case during the past two years,
with the result that a final decision
was issued. giving the heir full owner

FORESTS VERY DRY
Conditions Extremely Hazard
Gus Ia Five States.

July opened with the forest h,e
situation on the Pacific coast not
greatly changed during the past
month, being in the main still we'll
in hand but extremely critical, ac-
cording to the bulletin issued July
3 by the Western Forestry and
Conservation association from
reports by official and private
agencies in FIVE states.
Although in most localities the
dryness and hazard has increased,
temporary favorable weather has
also enabled coping with the abb
normally numerous fires Of early
June, SO that the patrol and fire.
fighting forces have heldtheir own.
Nevertheless it is one of the esrli-
est and most threatening seasons
ever experienced Grave conceTn
is expressed in nearly all tho
reports that, without rain, the sit
uation may get out Of hand at any
time unless settlers, loggers, and
forest visitors use excessive
caution with fire in any form, ir-
cluding matches and cigarettes.
Slashings are becoming almost ex-
plosive and fire near them should
be extinguished instantly.
In California the situation IS
doubly serious because there is
little hope of more rain. The
national forests have had over 400
fires already, I8o of these caused
by lightning, with some $4,000
acres burned. The government
has made GO arrests and already
secured over 40 convictions. Out
side OF national forests, California
reports l3s recent fires, covering
36, 600 acres OF forest and open
land with money loss Of $r2o, occ.
Washington and Oregon have
lost only few million feet OF
merchantable timber, but fires
have run into the hundreds and
before controlled have done heavy
damage to second-growth, loef,
equipment, and improvements.
Idaho reports the situation sx-
ceedingly dangerous, but that SO
far the several fires have been
handled successfully with smaH
loss.
In Montana there were fair rams
in Iunc, SO the hazard is less than
elsewhere on the Pacific coast
although again gathering IN inten-
sity.

IDEAS IN
ROADS MIGHT
PROVE WORTHY

The man who is laughed at today
is revered tomorrow. They laughed
at Bell and his telephone, Edison
and his electric light, and Langley
with his crazy flying machine. The
Wright brothers were derided, the
discoverer of X rays was ridiculed,
and the radio delusion' brought
smiles and amusement.
But not now!
1t is as impossible for us to say
now, what the road of the future is
10 be, as it was impossible for us to
say. five years ago, what the radio
broadcast of tadoy would be.
An inventor wants to interest capt.
tai in making a roadway of steel.
1t will cost. II built, not thousands,
but several hundreds of thousands of
dollars per mile. Road builders
laugh. The public laughs. We all
laugh. Why pay three hundred
thousand dollars a mile for roads
when we can get them for a few
thousands?
Twenty years ago the idea OF pay
ing twenty-five thousand dollars a
mile for road was laughed at!
This steel idea may be all wrong.
1t hasn't been tried. 1t may be fan
tastic in the extreme. We don't
know. But we do know hat laugh
inging at it because its different is
no way to prove it idiotic. Ter years
ago people laughed at the idea of
national highways. They don't
laugh any more More and more
people are coming to think that
highways are as much a part of the
Nations business as waterways. Pa
mama Canal, battleships. an army.
The new idea is always laughed
at. Laughter doesn't prove anything
except the ~"stand-pat mind of the
Laughter. Maybe steel roads at three
hundred thousand dollars a mile are
impractical. But why not bring
something else to bear on the ques-
ton beside laughter? Nobody
laughs at national highways any
more; not even Congress-!
The joke of yesterday is the fact
of today. Maybe we will yet ride on
national highways of steel! They
laughed at steel rails for locomotives
too. They laughed at ~transcontinen-
tai highways. And how they did
laugh at De Lesseps and his Panama
Canal,
He laughs best who laughs last.

LIVESTOCK IN
WYOMING HAS
GOOD OUTLOOK

Wyoming livestock continues in
good condition and the state has a
good supply of feed according to
the monthly livestock and range re-
port issued by the Division OF Crop
and Livestock Estimates of the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture.
The snow and cold weather of ear
ly January resulted in covering the
ranges over much of the state and
feeding was generally necessary. Lat
err in the month the ranges opened
with milder weather. The ranges
carry a good supply of feed, but
there is considerable complaint as to
the lack of strength due to lack OF
curing. The condition of the ranges
is 95 per mi compared with 100
per cent January l and SO per cent
one yea ago.
The state has a good supply of
hay and other feed which is gen
orally ample for the remainder of
the winter. except in a few localities
in the central and southern districts
where early feeding has run the sup
ply to a low point. Some corn and
concentrates were shipped in for
sheep in the central section and Big
Horn basin. Northeastern Wyoming
seems to hnve a surplus of feed.

The new surgical methods are based
on the suggestion of a German physi-

nerve fbers which are accessible to

German surgeon reported that he had
performed the operation in six cases

the nerve caused a cessation Of the
