The Country Penetrated by Custer's Column Fifteen Yearn AC Well IVe- Pled-Grcnt Wealth nnd lc-)tirvi. AmwJ. dimming-, In New Yerk Bun. Six days have I spent among the peaks f the Alack Hills. It is a wonderland. Aptly may the Hills be termed the Azoic fifthe plains. They are the centre of an ocean of verdure. They tower above the vast prairies or Datekn and Wyoming as the Western Inlands tower above the bread besom of the Atlantic. Seamed with wild Irerges, sprinkled with fortlle valleys, ulelhcd in forests of dark pines, and capped with tiirroted crags, thev may well excite awe and admiration. Hut tliev are far mero valuable thiiu hcuuli Ail. They are ribbed with lodes of Beld, silver, tin and cepiier. The golden fnds of the gulches arc still being Washed. The llomestnko and ether mlnes are still pouring out thelr millions over ever year. TneronrelOO.OOOtousor tin ero eh dumps awaiting concentration. Loud, Iren, copper, and ether minerals are found, and coal has been discovered at the feet of the hills. Just new the tin prosieelers are the most active. They are selling their lodes as fust as they llnd them, and they are find ing them every week. The plne forests nre another seurce of wealth. The music of the circular saw is heard In many a gulch, and little settlements are springing up like magic. Hut this Is net all. The Black Hills glye birth te a scere or mere of streams that Slve llfe te an agricultural kingdom below lern. They water wide vallevs of extra ordinary fertility. Ne irrigation is needed. Like Pike's Peak, Harney's Vcak Is a storm centre, but, unllke l'ike's Peak, it generously scatters Its showers ever the wide v alleys and bread nlatcaus that stretch te the horizon. The effort Is marvelous. Dakota te-day Is the greatest wheat-producing country in the Union. I ml tec!. It is said te be raising nearly uthlitlcth of the' wheat crop of the world. The Hlack Hills easW, however, Is only just beginning te de its shuru of the werli. Its fertility almost surpasses belief. The best wheat and eats undoubtedly grew ujxni its farms. There nre surprising state ments concerning Its crops. Wheat yields from 20 te 10 bushels per acre, but samples of n yield of K4 bushels te the aero are shown. Jehn Schainrl, who lives two miles west of Hapld City, recently raised 400 bushels of wheat from ten acres of ground, and sold It out of the wagon for ninety cents per bushel. The grains eftlw lllnck Hills wheat are large and plump. They seldom fall under seventy pounds te the bushel. The soil, bear in mind, is net stimulated. Scratch the rich earth, and you get your reward without fertilisers. Oats in the Hills, sewn upon the same Mill, become top heavy. A field in Hill City was ceil which yielded nearly sixty bushels te the aero. Thoeats weighed fully forty-six pounds te the bushel. The golden sheaves were a sight te beheld. The heads were apparently a solid mass of eats, and the overburdened sprayshungdewn below tiie girdle of each sheaf. Tills, however, Is by no means a marvelleus yield for the HUN. The statement that Sum Scott, who owns a small plaee adjoining Hapld City, raised 760 bushels of eats from thrce a-rcs, seems incredible, Thore is no doubt, how ever, that Dr. Doty gleaned 050 bushels from ten acres. His ranch Is en Hex Elder oreek, only a few miles from the city. The Hill farms are sheltered ft out the wind, and well watered and timbored. Ne richer garden Bpets can be found. Vegetables attain an unusual slze without losing their fluver. A potato, weighing ever ten teunds, grown in a gulch, has been ox ex libitcd. When baked it proved mealy from skin te heart, and satisfied the ap petites of four men. A luxuriant grewtii of grass extends ever fhe w hole legion. The wild grass turns out tremendous crops of hay. Timethy, clever, blue grass, eichard "grass, millet, red-top, and alfalfa equal wheat in growth. Hcsldes this nature has supplied six va rieties of wild grass. Hye, barley, corn, buckwheat, and sorghum thrlve wonder fully. A faimer may raise grain in the low hills and mountain slopes. Thovulleys are lovely. Peaks clothed te the very top with dark pines surround them. Crystal springs purl through tbciu. They head in springs of the purest watur, and they are fed by the snows and rainfalls of the moun tains. Many of tiie valleys are under cul tivation. Others await the nppieciatlve husbaudui'iu. Ten years from new, when the tin mines are fully develops!, these alleys will un doubtedly prove f.ir mero valuable than the geld placers in the gulches. Penning ton county, of which Hapld City is tiie shire town, includes the hcail et the hills. It lias about 5,000 farms under various .tnges of cultivation. Tlioiearo very l'uw burns and very few ideal farm houses. Settlers who have Just taken up choice locations frequently live in wall tents. Uimjii the cultivated fauns you llnd the latest improved agilcultuial implements. A farmer was seen using a mewing machine, while his wife followed with a horse rake. They weie gathering in the icceiid crop of hay for the season. Most of the firms In the valley are taken up. There are choice tuble lauds in the country round the hills, seme of which aie still open te settlement. They are subject te rainfalls, and, with few exceptions, are Mild te be fully as feitile as the lands in the vnllevs. Aside from agriculture, the drainage of the Hills sustains an immense cattle in dustry. Nearly a million cittle brew se en the grass bordering streams that have their seurce near Harney's Peak. They dot the valleys as lar as the eye can see. They feed upon the native grasses, sum mer and winter. These cittle mostly es caped the rigors of the winter that proud se disastrous in Mentana and upper Wyo ming a few years age. Huge trains laden with them are beginning te roll down the Klkhern lead tewaid Omaha and Chicago. Tliose trains have the right of way, and frequently attain n speed of forty-llve miles an "hour. "If you are ever in a hurry te get out et the Black Hills coun try," said W. It. Wilsen, or Fremont, "take a hog train. You'll get here twelve hours ahead of the regular express. " Tiie choicest grazing laiuU in the entire Northwest are found in thu Hills. It seems te be u paradise for stock mixers. Proba bly net mero than a twentieth efthcaiea Is tit for cultivation. The remainder is covered with forests. It makes the finest ranges for stock and sheep. Thore are ranges along most of the sti earns Mow Mew ing from the Hills. The great cattle kings of the district arc C. J. White and the Weeds Brethers. They own 10,000 head, and have ever $1,000,000 invested in the business. The management is concen trated at Hanld City. I-ist year they shipped ever 10,000 cattle, yielding a wish return of ever 100,000 The saine cei posi tion owns a great herse ranch, with se en miles of never-failing water. It is stecked with 1,000 line mares and 'M pure-brcd Pprehoren, Clyaevlale, and.Shliu stallions. It Is said te return 'JO per cent, a ye.ir in dividends. These ranches, however, are only a surface indication of what is being done. There are many breeding farms within a day's rldn et the Hills. It is a liort.e country. Everybody listens with pleasure te the soil click of the hoof. Thore are nvcingassoclatiens ut Hapld City and Deudwoed. Geed time is made anil the purses this fall aggregate 0,00 . A ranch w ithlu a mile and a h ilf of Hapld City has fourteen standard broil mures, all with foal by the noted stallion Saturn. When completed it will be the lamest breeding establishment in the West. Per Per Per choreii and English Hhlre horses aie te be added, with a view of breeding stock for range purposes. A string of French coach horses and marcs are en the way here. Ne opportunity for improvement will be missed. Meney Is te be spent without stint. The herse ranches around Hapid City may in time become, us famous us theso in'Kentueky and California. Small ranches are springing up in every direction. There are seven en Hanid creek, nine en Hex Elder and several en Spring creek. Edward Lyneh's is a fair example. He lias 2.4SJ acres, tjventy-flve miles southeast of Hapld City en Hapld creek. Sevcntr breed inares pranoe ever the ranch. They nre Auiei Au ijurts and are inbred with French coach horses. S. P. Cenrad has 400 horses en a :i,OO0-cre ranch en Hex Klder, and the Overback brothers have a larger ranch en Spring creek. The herse indus try premises te be a seurce of great wealth te the country. The lllack Hills arise from a series of pla teaus from 3,600 te 5,000 feet abeve sea level. Harnev's Peak is 8,300 feet abeve It. Prem its top tiie distant plains leek like the swelling undulation of the sea. Ne ether mountain ranges are in sight, Even the Uig Hern and Powder mountains are Ih yond view. Immediately below you Is n wilderness of granite pinnacles, hills, ravins, canons, gulches, parks, and streams, and beyond the circle an ocean of vendure and dry grass. Just new the view Is dimmed by the smoke from the Mentana pralrie fires, limit black patches en the plains below tell you that such fires are net confined te Mentana. The fanners along the Klkhern railroad mew the grass and weeds along the track and then burn It. They thus prevent tires that might preve disas trous te their crops and cattte. A thousand farmers are at work along the track this week, and the heat In the cars is at times almost insufferable. The I'rnlt of the lllack Hills is remarka ble. Apples, ears, plums, cherries and grapes grew te a large slze and are unu sually luscious. Hale A Thomsen, who own a nursery flve miles abeve Hapld City, are sending te the state fair a choice collection of fruits. They luclude Duchess of Oldenburg and Weltliy apples, and Mar tin, Hyslep, transcendent, and Siberian crab apples, and Concord grapes. They would de credit te California. The hills cover 3,200 square miles, and He In the extreme southwestern part of Seuth Dakota. Tiie scenery is magnificent. In years te comethey will undoubtedly be a favorite resert for tourists. Thore are no trout In the brooks, nor are there any lakes in the hills. Small chubs and suckers are the only fish te Ite found. The plne trees are filled with red squirrels, but they are net tit te cat. They feed upon plne cones almost exclusively. When cooked their flesh retains the taste of the pine. The irreuud snuirrels are strllsxl llke chip munks, and are net much larger than mice. They infest ,e?ery dwelling and granary. A mele as large as a rat is a cu riosity. He heaves bushels of subsoil te the surface, and seems te enjoy himself Imineuscly. Elk and butl.ile have disappeared. A few cinnamon bears and seme black-talled deer nre loll. The deer are ulready pretected by game laws. Habhlts are leund, but the hawks and eagles prevent their rapid In crease. There are no beaverH, minks, nor fur-bcarlng animals. A few quails have been brought from the East, and are said te be doing well. Heblns and meadow larks are plentiful, but tliore nre no brown thrushes or orioles. Hlackblrds hover ever the wheat fields in donse clouds. A stray mocking bird is Nomctlme scen, but he quickly wends his way back te Texas. Tiie English sparrow has net yet found this paradise, and the ground chippy has the country te himself. Thcre are a few oaks and quaking asps In the valleys, but the moil of the timber Is yellow plne. Gelden nxl, wild nces, blackberries, thistles and wild suutlowers are plentiful. I saw no million stalks nor wild pirsulps. The cllmate Is delightful. The sum liter months nre characterized by warm days and cool night i. The alris pure at.d w hole helo hole somo.

It Is asserted that thcre are mero davs of sunshine in the lllack Hills than in any ethor part of the United States. The winters nre cold, but thcre Is little snow. Sleighs are nover used. The mer cury seldom rises abeve 110' In summer. In winter it sometimes readies CO" below zero. The cllmate is especially faverable te theso sutlering from pulmonary and malarial diseases. It has all the geed qual ities of the air of Colerado, without the light, rarelied atmosphere Yeu boldem hear or sickness in the lilack Hills. The border days nre past. The read ugent has disappeared. The hills are as sale for travelers as the reads of New England. The Indians are kept iien reservations hundreds of miles away. I have been here sixteen days without seeing a solitary sav age. The people are hospitable and enter taining. They nre proud of the country, and have glowing hopes of Its luture. It is still in its infancy, but it is grew lug llke a giant. Thirteen years have passed since the Custer massacre. The lllack Hills were then developing the tlrst germs of com mercial life. Te-day uelty of 5,000 Inhab itants squats at its gateway, and thcre are 00,000 miners and laborers within sight of Harney's Peak. It leeks as though some body was menkeying with Aladdin's lamp.
