So enticing is the flavor of the buffalo bherry, according to local tradition, that the pie soon produces in the individual sampling it a de- sire for more buffalo berries, com- parable to the craving of an habit- ual inebriate for strong drink. To a Black Hills family, the buf- falo berry picking expedition is an annual event, considercd as regular sary as Fourth -of July or Late in the summer and picknickers scour the s and protected creek banks, intent ing-in” a supply of berrics for the year.
