Eosebud Sioux of the Spotted Tail
Tribe Have Now Become a
Race of Farmers.
How to Build a Bird House that Will Stand Weather
MODERN HOMES AND SCHOOLS
It was only about a quarter of
a century ago that the Rosebud
Sioux, In those days better known as
the Spotted Tall Indians, laid down
the tomahawk and the scalping
knlfo and turned their attention to
more peaceful pursuits, such as
growing grain and raising cattle and
horses on their lands that now com
prise the counties of Gregory, Tripp,
Mellette and Todd, an area about
fifty miles wide and 150 long, lying
along the south line of South Da
kota, Just north of Nebraska.
That these Indians, of whom there are
now about 6,600, have made good, Is
the assertion of Charles 1. Davis, super
Intendent, who has looked after their
welfare during; the last two years.
Upturning from Washington, Mr. Davis
en route home to the agency at Rose
bud, A D., spent several hours In Omaha
last Friday. While here he discoursed
on Indians, particularity the Rosebud
Bloux, saying:
Nearly All ?elf-Snpportlnsjr.
"Of the 8,5(iO In. Hans of the Rosebud
agency, fully 3,000 are self-supporting; and
most of thrm are as good citizens as
you can find anywhere. They are farm
ers and stock raisers, though they are
giving more attention to raising cattle
and horses than to raising grain.. At
this time they have something like s.OK)
head of cattle and about the same num
ber of horses. They have considerable
land under cultivation and quite a large
area out to alfalfa.
"That they are thrifty is borne out
by the fact that in the banks In the
towns close to their lands they have
more than $600,000 on deposit. A few
of them have automobiles, but they are
not given to the purchase of these ma
chines, preferring horses and wagons
and buggies.
"During my trip to Washington, I ar
ranged for the purchase of 2,000 heifers
and 400 to 500 brood mares. These ani
mals will be sold to the Indians at cost.
The stock la of good grade, the Idea be
ing to satisfy the demand of the In
dian that tYiv? be made more self-supporting.

Work of DTelopmst,
"When I went to the agency I worked
on the idea of bringing about a develop
ment of the Indiana and Introducing the
idea of Independence- among them and I
think that I have succeeded. At the
present time practically all the Rosebud
Sioux reside In good, comfortable houses.
They are warm and as' modern as houses
can be made lnt the eountry. Jn these
houses they have good furniture and the
occupants live as . well aa tae average
.whjte people.
.""On the agency we have three board
ing and twenty day schools, but there
are not enough to supply the demand
upon them. Each year it. Is noticeable
that more and more ct the . Indian chil
dren are anxious to. enroll themselves in
the schools and 'in many instances It is
Impossible ton. them to attend, owing
to the distance that they reside from the
buildings,
"We have done awsjr with the old tri

members of which are elected. We' have

women, who lire ei lally as pood.

younger people speuk Knullsh and moat

enn notice that there has been a won

The interest taken In the enterprise of
furnishing detached homes and apart
ment houses for the feathered friends
who will sr.lourn during the summer in
snd around Omaha Is spreading at a
rapid rate. One reader of The Bee, deeply
aroused by the exhibition Just made at
the city hall of bird bouses constructed
by the pupils of tho city schools, has
asked for some detailed information as
to how- to build a blrJ house.
Almost anybody with a few tools snd
skill In using them can tack together
the bits of board ne-led to provide a
hr.bl table
shelter for a
bird. But
much I n
genulty and
taste can
also be
brought Into
play in tho
process. The
United
States De
partment of
Agriculture,
In its bulle
tin No. C,
issued In 1914, gives In great detail the
manner of providing homes for the more
familiar birds. From this publication The
Bee has selected a few that will be most
useful in this locality.
The habit of nesting in bird houses has
been adopted by Individuals of many
species which would not ordinarily be ex
pected to make use ot such homes, and
this may be taken as Indicating that It
will become more general from year to
year as facilities are afforded and the
trance hole. Fitch makeshifts are rarely
weatherproof and are never pleasing Vto
the eye. Branches containing real wood
pecker holes, when obtainable, are per
haps the best attraction that ran be of
fered most bouse blnH In the breeding
season. By carefully fitting such a
branch to a fruit or shade tree Its for
eign origin will scarcely be noticed. The
house shown In figure 6 Is suitable for
use In trees. It Is made from a log or

trated In the figure. The cover is to go
on after the log Is fastened In place.
A nest shelter desisnvd to be placed In
shrubbery for catblrd-i, brown thrashers
and song sparrows Is thown in figure I.
As it requires little lumber or labor, one
may well be placed !n evory patch of
attaching birds permanently to their
houses. A little sulphur scattered about n
house is a good remedy for parasites.
When bluebirds or swallows take posses
sion of a martin lions It Is a good plan
to put up a one-room house In the vicin
ity and remove the ,t from the martin
house. Interlopers, 'Mir evicted, often
transfer their housekeeping, to the small
house. Houses deslgn'-d for woodpeckers
should always have in Inch or so of saw
dust In the bottom for the reception of
csgs, as woodpeckers do not gather nest
materials. Due attention should be given
to repairs. It Is easier to keep houses In
good order than to btit'. ne ones.
Birds have numerous enemies front
which a careful landlo-d will try to guard
them. Among these Is the English spar
row, whose persistent attacks too often
drive more desirable birds away from
their nests and from the nelnhborhood.

Interference with native house birds.
Cats and large snak'.s are enemies of
birds, the former perhaps killing more
birds than any other mammal. Trees and
poles supporting hot.ses should be
sheathed with tin or galvanised Iron to
prevent these enemies from climbing to
the nests. Squirrels give more or less
trouble by gnawing houses, eating eggs
and killing nestlings. Red squirrels. In

number of birds hatched In houses In
creases. That western wrens and bluebirds should
take as naturally to artificial shelters as
did their eastern relatives was to be ex
pected. On the other hand, the use of
houses by birds which until recently hsd
persistently ignored them is surprising
and must be considered a victory for
those who have studiously attempted to
enlarge their circle of feathered neigh
bors. Woodpeckers, nuthatches and titmice
excavate their own houses, usually new
ones each year,

homes to leas
