How TO take Advantage OF the Sol.
dierS Homestead Bill.

We see by the official proceedings
Of the soldiers' meeting held in this
city, last Saturday night, that they
are about to take steps to have each
soldier entitled thereto, combine with
his fellow-soldiers to facilitate taking
up homesteads. The law allows an
entry to be made through an agent,
and the claim made by him, holds the
land for six months. The plan is to
have those belonging to the organi-
cation empower an agent to visit the
several localities where homesteads
are to be had, and make claims for
the whole. BY this means the ex-
pense Of prospecting can be largely
saved, and il judicious man may be
selected for the agent, . good claims
could be made for each as they could
make for themselves.
So much for getting this thing
started, then comes the duty Of get
ting upon the soil within six months
after the claims are made. And
right there it seems to us the utility
Of ASSOCIATION for the purpose Of get.
ting the legal title to lands claimed,
confirmed to the soldiers, comes in
play, and can be made most servicea-
BILE 10 the claimants. II might be
used to enable the settlers to improve
their lands, by using the same teams
and agricultural implements, thus saw
ing any large investments for that
purpose, which would be necessary il

gestion 10 not made for the benefit Of
those who have mcans, or to those
who are fully determined to make
permanent homes on their claims, and
have the means to be independent.
But we understood the object Of .

zation is to get title to 100 acres Of
land, to either hold Or sell, that they
