idea of the manner ia which the population sincreasne
may be gathered from the very large sales OF the pub

hundred thousand acres paid for in cash. and the
remainder, nearly six hundred thousand acres, were
paid for with land warrants. During the year 1913,
more than million of land in the State were en-
