Opening of the Shoshone or Wind River
Reservation in Wyoming.
The President's proclamation
opening the Shoshone res rvation
lands for settlement has been
published and prescribes the plan
of drawing for these lands , which
has proved so successful wi th
other \gencies. Applicants are
to register at Worland , 'l'her.I I .
lI1opolis , . Shoshone , or Lander in.
Wyoming , between July 16th and. .
31st. 'l'he subsequent drawing
for these lands will be held at
Lander commencing August 4th , I
the drawing to be supervJsed by. .
a committec of threc persons of
undoubted integrity. Parties
can return homc after registering -
ing , and the successful ones' are
notificd by card when and where
to appear to mdke filings for the
land drawn.
1'he Shoshone area comprises
about 400,000 acres of agricultural -
cultural lands to be drawn for ,
and thc government made a
remarkably cheap settlement
with the Indians so that the
cost is 110t going to exceed $1.50
an acre for the agricultural lands ,
except , of course , the additional
cost on the prorate plan for thc
irrigation works to be built.
Sixty days after August 15th ,
those seeldng timbcr and mineral
claims can cross the border and
tal up these claims under the
timber and mincral act , and all
persons are especially admonished
hy the Government not to at-
tcmpt to jump mincral or dmber
claims or to enter the H.cserva-
tion for that pnrpose prior to thc
appointed time.
It has been a close race. e
tween thc building of tbe Bur-
lington's Worland extensIOn up
the BIg Horn l iver and the opening -
ing date for this registration ,
and the 1I10St remarkable energy
has bcen pnt into the work by
the railroad to get this line
finishcd to Worland by the 4th
of July. 'l'wo or three dai1 '
shifts of laborers are laying rail
day and nighl , and right behind
the stcel gang come thc ballast
trains loaded from an immense
gravel bed on the right.of-way.
It is ccrtain that the Burlington' ! :
line will be finished to 'Vorl and
probably two weeks before July
IMh , which is tbe first day 01
registration. ,

to show buyers and settlers from
the East the regularity and the
wealth of irrigated reps from
lear to year. All seekers for
lands from the wh\le
country east of the Missouri
l ivcr appear to be from Missouri
and "have to be shown , " and this
was one of the chief reasons why
the Burlington bauled out 5,000
laborers a thousand miles to the
basin to hurry up this line
throu h the irrigated land of
the Big Horn Valley , so that the
army of persons going to register
for Shoshone lands could see and
appreciate the valuc of irrigated
lands enroute. The new Worland
line goes right through a zone of
irrigated lands extending all the !
way from (1'rannie along the Big
Horn Hiver , traversing single
tracts of 30,000 acres under cul-
tivation.
Tle railroads have also shown
their interest in tha enterprise of
settling up tbe new 'Ve3t by
undertaking to bring out the
largest possible number of entries
for this drawing with unusua1y !
low excursion rates , the main
motive being to get the people
out and scatter them over the
new lands of the West.

For the first time in history
the farmcrs got the first cutting
of alfalfa in the stack without
gettina- wet.
Sevcral of the wells in the
community have been cloing anything -
thing but furnishing water lately.
Mrs. Marquis has been on the
sick list the past week , but is
improving. The doctor who responded -
sponded to the sick call had an
exciting time on Frida } ' evening.
lIe ran into a wire gate stretched
across the roa l and brole his
buggy pole , thcn commanded a
cart and resumed his journey , the
cart upset and threw him out.
Guy Hector was along , but
modestly rcfused to relatc his
part in the adventure.
Another game of ball hcre on
Saturday afternoon , between t e
"Bcncdicts" and "Bachelors"
brought together a big crowd
( inculding Charley J..andreth )
and wore the graSs ! 01T a quarter
section of land. 'l'hc "Bcnedicts"
acknowledged defeat and agreed
to furnish the material for an
ice cream picnic to be held in the
rove on Spring Creek next
Saturday. After the boys quit
the coyotes took up the serenade.
I.A THIt ,
'l'he picnic held in the grove
at the mouth of Spring Creek
last Saturdd.Y under the manage.
ment ot the Ryno baseball club ,
was a success. Ice cream an
cake vlas furnishect in plenty. A
ball gaine in.1 afternoon added

THE MAN WITH A HOBBY
I confess to having a hobby and my bobby is to sell
th ' best buggy that can be sold for the money and to
B"ive you a guarantce that if the buggy is not what I
tell you it is I will fix it or refund your mone ) ' .
I have my buggies made after m"own specifications
and I know what they are made of. By buying dircct
from the fact ry I am able to save 25 per cent over what
my competitors pay for theirs and consequently am able
to sell you buggy from $10 to $20.00 less than they
can possibly do. I have just received
-J'IVVo : : Car I..oads ,
the latest effect of the factories , all bright and new.
1'here has n vcr been shown in Custer county as many
buggies un(1er ( one roof as I will s ow you if you come
in. I have ever'thing , carriages , surreys , road wagons ,
spring wagons , driving wagons , carts land buggies of
all descriptions. In fact , I will show you over 100
different jobs.
