inspectors for the district under the j
supervision of II. R. Fawks, are j
now busily engaged in looking aftej-1
the duties in connection with the
dipping of all quarantined herds dur-;
ing the month of March. It is the i
intention of Mr. Fawks to dip all
of the thirteen quarantined herds in
Parker County during March, thereby
starting the season off right, and
as it were, taking time by the fore-
lock.
Mr. Fawks called atention to the
new requirement, or ruling made by
the government, in regard to the
cleaning out of all vats in the coun-
ty. The ruling is that all vats must
positively be cleaned out and re-
charged with new water and dip
before the 1922 season starts, and
at the cattle owners expense. The
cost of dip to recharge the average
county built vat, is estimated at
$21.00 in addition to the time re-
quired to clean out and refill. All
quarantined herd owners are re-
quired to get their vats in shape!
before dipping starts.
Mr. Fawks stated Wednesday that
he desires to impress all quarantined
herd owners that their herds when
once quarantined, remain under the
regulations until they are released.
The release is served them by writ-
ten authority, just as is done when
the herds are first placed under
quarantine. He said that some cat-
tlemen are inclined to disregard the
quarantine regulations, and that in
such cases complaints will be made
before the county attorney.
Fawks said that he and his inspec-
tors are at all times ready and | ______

Kelly stopped at Berthold only long
enough to eat and then pushed on to
Buford. 200 miles away. Four miles
from Berthold he came to a timbered
valley. When lie readied the bottom,
a bullet whizzed past Ills ears. As
the scout dropped behind a log, three
Sioux warriors rushed him. “Old
Sweetness" spoke three times and the
warriors dropped In their tracks.
Kelly returned to Fort Berthold and
told of his adventure. The friendly
Indians were wild with joy. and after
that they called KeH.v “The Little Man
With tlie Strong Heart.”
The scout started again for Fort
Buford and delivered the dispatches
without further ndventure. He. be-
came the regular mall carrier, but the
Sioux were so frightened of his
"strong medicine” that they never at-
tacked him again.
Kelly remained In the United States
service as a scout until 1883. He was
a lieutenant of volunteers in the
Spanish-American war and In tlie
Philippines the old Indian scout, as
captain of the Filipino scouts, added
further to his laurels of war before
he retired as a fighting man.

“I would rather lose a third of my

services of a scout it meant that
