NEW HOMES IN THE WEST
ill ill ion Acres of Govern
ment I aiulM to be Opened
to tlic ISomeateacler.
. Almost half a million acres of
government land in the Kosebud
Indian Reservation , in the south
western part of South Dakotaand
one and a half million acres on the
Shoshone reservation in Wyoming ,
are to be opened for homestead
settlement at an early day. Reg
istration for the Rosebud lands will
probably begin August S and the
final allotment take place a month
later. The Rosebud reservation
lands are well watered by the Mis-
aouri , Niobrara and White rivers
and are situated in the great corn
beltwhere adjacent farmlands are
selling at from § 25 to giO.OO per
acre. The region that is to be
opened is reached by the direct line
of the Chicago & North-western
R'y. from Chicago , St. Paul , Min
neapolis , Sioux City , Des Moines ,
Omaha , Fremont , the Black Hills
and other points in the west ,
through to Bono toel on the eastern
reservation border. ,
The Shoshone or Wind river res
ervation is in uie high platear
lands of central Wyoming , bound
ed on the south by tne Wind river
and on the north by the Owl Creek
mountains , while the Big Horn
drains the eastern portion of the
lands that are to be opened.
These lands are to be reached
via the Chicago & North-western
R'y. to Casper , thence by stage to
Lander , or via the'Chicago , Union
Pacific and North-western Line to
Rawlins.
The treaty has been made by
which the Shoshoue lands north of
the Wind river are to be opened
to settlement , and awaits early
Congressional action. Government
lands of good quality are much
scarcer than they were at one time
and the interest evidenced by this
announcement of new lands to be
the settler is very great. A heavy
movement westward of those who
desire to avail themselves of the
United States homestead act will
doubtless begin as a result of the
announcement that these lands are
to be opened.
