Sandhills Section Has
Good Crops; Indians
1 Make Fine Showing
John Batchelor, leading cattleman
of the sandhill section, is here from
Valentine, marketing the last of a
string of 4,500 head of steers which
he has grazed in the sandhills, Pine
Ridge and Rosebud agencies this
year.
"Conditions in the .sandhills were
fine this year," said he. "We cut the
normal crop of hay and the grass
has been fine in its quality. Wheat,
corn, potatoes and other crops have
turned out excellently and our peo
ple have proved that our section is
no longer the remnant of the 'Great
Anlerican Desert.'
"I was at the Indian fair at the
Rosebud aeencv recently and saw a
really wonderful exhibit of the grain,
root and grass crops raised on tne
reservation by Indians. It was a
revelation. Indians have gone to
farming quite extensively on the
rich bottom lands and benches, es
pecially along the White river.
"The showing they made would
have been a credit to the richest
agricultural counties of the south
eastern part of the state and the
contributions of food stuffs they
have made to the general program
for winning the war, during the
present season, show they are real
patriots at heart as well as in practice.".
