j “That said land is not desert land; 1
| that it will and does Jproduce natural j
grasses sufficient in quantity if unfed ,
by grazing animals to make an ordin-
ary crop of hay in usual seasons; that
said land will produce and does pro-
‘ (luce agricultural crops in amount to
make the cultivation thereof reason-
ably renumerative; that the contesuee
has failed to comply with the law
after entry in that he failed to expend
j the sum of $1 per year upon said j
giojnd and has in nowise complied
with the law for desert ground.
“The land officers at Rapid City :
properly suppressed the charge of |
failure to expend the sum of $1 per j
aere, one year since entry not having ,
' elapsed, and issued notice for a hear--
ing before them on thoehargeof non-
desert character of the land, citing
j the parties to a hearing on April 8,
1909, the testimony to be taken before '
the clerk of the court of Meade coun-,
ly, S. 1)., March SB, 1909.
“The said hearing was had, both
parties appearing with their witnesses
i aggregating more than 30, and sub-
mitting their testimony. In additfop ,
to the testimony taken at the hearing :
in the ease of Thompson vs Peterson, 1
then being heard, might also be con- I
: sidered, a copy thereof being attached
to the record, the same to have effect
so far as practicable relative to the
climatic conditions and results of j
farming in the vicinity, the land in-
volved in the two contests being lo-
cated about a mile distant from each
other. A copy of the said record of
Thompson vs is attached to j
the record of this coti test.
“On June 15, 1909, the local officers
at Rap' ' ’lty rendered the decision,

“On September 10, 1909, you trans-
mitted the case which had been trans-
ferred from Rapid City to your office.
“In the decision of this case the
testimony of both records has been
considered, l'he testimony is con-
flicting as to the crops the land in-
volved and other lands in the vicinity
willproduce. The witnesses for the 1
contestant testify that there is a draw
running through the land that will 1
produce half a ton of hay to the acre 1
if not pastured. They admit that
much of the land has ‘white epots, 1
that willnot produce anything unless
manured, and upon their showing it '
appears a few acres in the vicinity '
here and there have produced crop» 1
of wheat, oats aud corn hut they have 1
failed to show that any remunerative 1
yield has been obtained; that agricul-
tural crops, either hay, corn, oats or I
wheat can be profitably grow n with-
out irrigation.
“From tho testimony in both cases
the evidence is conclusive these lands
are covered with cactus, sage brush
and a few plum trees; that much of
it is alkali land and known at ‘gumbo’
and all of it is recognized as arid in j
character; that the soil is of the same
nature as that included in the Belle
i Fourche irrigation project, distant
about fi or 7 miles therefrom. There
is no doubt that the yield of these
lands has been increased to some ex-
tent by greater rainfall within the
past few years, also by cultivation,
but it is doubtful that any crops have
ever been raised that are fairly re-
munerative on this land or any other
land in this vicinity, which has been
referred to in the testimony.
“There is a clear preponderance of
of the evidence that the lands, one
! year with another, without artificial
irrigation, willnot produce remuner-
ative crops.
“Your decision is affirmed and the
contest is dismissed.”
