was received at the school laud depart-
ment yesterday. *
This decision sustains the board for
leasing school lands in their appeal, from
the holding of the commissioner of the
general land office, and means the saving
of about fifteen thousand dollars to the
colleges of the territory.
l"ndc-r section 12 of the enabling act
lands were granted to the collegts as
follows:
Mechanical college,
Agricultural ar.d
260.ooo acres.
University, 250.000 acres.
Normal schools, 300,000 acres.
University Preparatory school 150,000
acres.
Colored Agricultural and Normal Uni-
versity 101) 000 acres.
Total, 1.050.000 acres.
Immediately upon tfye passage of the
net these lands were seletced by the sec-
ret ny of tl^e board in the various land
Under En- :,n'1 t,lc elections certified up by
ti e governor. When the matter reached
the commissioner of the general" land
office he fej'vted the selections, for the
;<*crr tCJr.rfield of | rotfon that the non saline and non min-
rel-ttlrg to tii" mnk-| eral affidavits had not been made, and

for every selection. To comply with this
finding it would have been necessary tt>
e-mpluy agents to visit even piece of
land filed on and make an inspection of
same so as to be able to make the affi-
davit/ and this would have entailed an
expense of from twelve to fourteen thou-
sand dollars.
The board appealed from this find in*?.
upon the ground that the* lands were
granted to the colleges fully and com-
pletely. without regard as to whether
they were agricultural or mineral lands
and that the Intent of congress to grant
to the colleges the mineral on all lands
wis shown by section 8 of the enabling
act. wherein It was provided that any
<*f the lands found to be valuable for
mineral should not be sold until 1915,
but should be leased for mineral purposes
by the state. The' secretary of the in-
terior sustains the board in this conten-
tion, and the selections will now be ap-
prove Jn every case where they do .not
conflict v^ith homestead or other entries
and th<* state will secure the benefits of
salt or other minerals upon any ,'and
upon which, they have filed.
The other point on which an apecf, w. «
taken from' the findings of the commis-
sioner was In the payment of fees, the
commissioner holding that#the filing fte
of $2 Iflust be paid for •■ o h selection of
160 acres or "raction thereof. The board
Contended that the proper method is
clearly outlined in the rules of the land
office, was to divide the total acreage
embraced in any one filed list by 100.
and charge two dollars for each 180
acres and £or any fration remaining over.
•As it was necessary to make many tfC
selections In small tracts, th method of
charging fees prescribed by the commis-
sioner would cause them to be several
thousand dollars In excess of what they
t'ould be if computed In the other way.
for which the board contended, and in
which the secretary sustains thejn.
This decision clears up most of the
complications In regard to the now col-
lege lands, and the school land depatt-
ment will now proceed with the leasing
of the same as rapidly as possible.
The only matter remaining to be acled.
upon by the department is the final ap-
proval of each Individual selection, the
only question coming up at such ap-
proval being wither the particular land
selected was subject to entry or not it
the time the selection was made.
The first leasing of these college* lands
will be for grazing purposes only, and
the leases be temporary leases running
until April 1, 1908. Between llow .and
that time all of the lana. will be ap-
praised and classified preparatory to
their permanent leasing foi sal" as rm y
be decided upon by the proper authori-
ties,

regulations very objectionable to the pro-

quired to pay a douhh rental or the

vanced royalty and one dollar an acre
for delnyed drilling. The last amount Is
objected to and the producers would have
It cut out. Again the lessi e is requiri I
to furnish a trust bond as a guarantee
that he will faithfully pay over the <«ie

dian when in fact the Indian's money is
paid direct to the Indian agent by the

as to do Inestimable Good to the
Farmer and Cotton Raisers the
World Over
The Bureau of Biological Survey of the
United States department of agriculture
in bulletin Nms. r.ij hnd ,'.7, issued April
Ti, 1907, calls the attention of farmers
and especially colton raisers to the pres-
sing necessity of protecting our hird-;,
and especially those which prey upon the
cotton boll weevil. Thfs « bulletins ougiu
to bo In th,?« hands of every cotton
ralfrr In this territory and can he had
free by writing to the department at
Washington. Among the boll weevil dc
strorers prominence Is glv&i t>> swallow
family. As a result bf the inveii tibn
of the Biological Survey, thirty-eight
species of birds are now known to fe d
upon this weevil and the most prom-
inent among these are tlie several specie*
of the swallows, including the purpl"
martin, the*xlghthawk, or Bullbat. a id
the Oriole. In an examination of tno
stomachs of. thf> swallow famll.v is high
as .77 full grown Weevils were found In
a single stomach. The sw.ilTow • ■ s
encouragement and with a little .utten-
t!on from thq, farmers they can be In
cna.sed almost without limit. It would
take ton much space to describe the
several species and the inestimable ben-
efits they cenfer upon the farmer's o**-
*■ hard 1st and especially the cotton "row
er but the martin Is the largest, and
'perhaps the moft domestic, and its hab-
its of nesting In boxes provided for 't
about the farm makes It the most val-
uable of its tribe, for by providing th.is
for it its increase la measured ontv
the supply of food obtainable. Cotton
raisers should supply these nesting boxes
in abundance in and about their cotton
fields and then watch the results. Their
only enemies are the cat and the Eng-
lish sparrow, especially the latter, but
the martin is a fighter Jtsclf and only
succumbs to superior numbers, which
this little devil Incarnate of a bird has
no difficulty in calling to its assistance
All others of the swallow family and
many others of our most valuable hird-;
are the victims of the English sparrow
in their forage upon nests, eggs and their
young. I myself have witnessed thl«
The little inoffensive but most valuable
honse-wrcn whose sweet notes rc - o
delightful tr> the ear in home life, are
driven out and their eggs destroyed, r.nd
their nest taken possession of by the.?"2
pests. On my back porch there are sev -
eral box nests Into which these little
wrens had made their nests and lai«l
their eggs, when the sparrows tool; it
into their heads to drive them out ..ml
appropriate the nests for themselves, ar. 1
did so and now not a wren rlars
approach the house in tact, are com-
pletely driven away.
The English sparrow ought to be c\-
eonimunieated and a price put upon its
head. Ever since it did that unmannerly
trick to the old Hebrew patriarch, Tobit
centuries befor* the Christ ian era. in
which lie lost his eyesight, it has been
under the ban of public sentiment as m

Purity and Cleanliness
Cleanliness is.necessary for purity in foods, and especially
in beer. No one realizes this important fact more than Pabst.
In the treat Pabst Brewery at Milwaukee, everything is
as neat and clean as in your own kitchen. Every grain of
barley is washed and scoured before it is made into malt.
Even the air in which the malt is grown is washed by being
drawn through fourteen zinc screens, over each of which
flows a constant stream of pure water.
The great shining copper brew-kettles are washed and"
sterilized before each brew of • -

Before it is bottled, Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer is'forced through wood
fiber filters. The bottles are thoroughly cleaned, then filled and pasteurized.
Pabst cleanliness, like Pabst purity, cannot be extelled.
