Excerpt from History of Dakota Territory, Vol. 1: South Dakota, Its History and Its People Regarding the early inhabitants of this country, trustworthy history goes no farther into the past than to the discovery and settlement of the Atlantic region by the Europeans. Conjectures have been formed from the traditions of the Indians, and from relics discovered in ancient mounds and earthworks taken in connection with the course of events narrated in sacred and profane history, that lead to the belief that this country was peopled at a very early period by colonies from Eastern Asia.

Excerpt from History of Dakota Territory, And, South Dakota, Its History and Its People, Vol. 3 Probably no subject is of greater historic interest to the people of the state than the development of the natural resources. South Dakota did not start out on the perilous but prosperous voyage of statehood with either a bankrupt treasury or a dearth of resources that could be made useful. Three very important resources shone above all others when the young state began its career, namely: (1) The mines; (2) the plant products, and (3) the live stock industry. All three had grown wonderfully under the sunny skies of territorial existence, but had in reality only well commenced. In addition and only of secondary importance, were the following additional means of resource (1) Lignite and coal beds; (2) artesian water supply; (3) cement formations; (4) building stone; (5) fer tile soil; (6) available moisture for crops; (7) abundant timber in the extreme western part and along many streams; (8) extension of the corn growing area; (9) introduction of drouth resistant plants; (10) irrigation and intensive farm ing; (11) improvement of live stock; (12) diversified farming and rotation of crops (13) extension of the fruit growing area; (14) oil and natural gas deposits; (15) available water power; (16) the intelligent, mixed and industrious popula tion; (17) healthful climate; (18) large amount of annual sunshine; (19) wild game for food, furs, pelts, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
