LAND ACREAGE SURVEYED.

by the permission OF the gentlemanly
receiver Of the u. S. Land Office in this
city, we obtained access to the plats and
books of the Office. From them we
have CLEANED the following statistics
respecting the surveyed lands in this
district, outside the Nez Perez Reserva-
ton. The surveys made in forty. seven
townships aggregate 58l,9S7 acres,
about three fourths of which is prairie
land. The other fourth is timbered
iaud, and full four-fifths of the whole is
we'll adapted to settlement and high
degree of cultivation. OF this amount
there have been entered as homesteads
l4,76l acres. Declaratory statements
for pre.emptious have been fled on 49,
$50 acres, and timber culture filings
amount to only 766 acres, The Pre-.
emptiou sales already completed, amount
to 8,942 acres.
A few abandonmcnts Of homesteads and
cancellations of Prescriptions have been
made, which may aggregate to 5000
acres, leaving balance now occupied
by pre.emptors and homesteaders within
the district, Of 44,277 acres, equivalent
to about 277 farms Of 100 acres each.
It is estimated that upwards Of 50
other settlers have recently gone upon
quarter sections, who have not yet re-
ported themselves to the Land Once
for tho purpose Of holnesteading OF
pre-emp'ing, but who will do so as soon
As the vacancy Of Register in the Land
Office is filed. These will absorb 5000
more acres Of the surveyed lands Of the
district, making in all 5O,277 acres
leaving as a balance Of the surveyed
lands Of the district open for settlement
by presumption and homestead the sun
Of 531 10 acres, full 200 900 acres o
which is we'll adapted to settlement
and cultivation, aud equally as good al
that now occupied. Hence North Idaho
offers to farming immigr; its $500 farms
Of l6O acres each. at Z government
price, not one Of which but wat j
either we'll timbe.ed, or not removed
more than fifteen miles from good build
ing, fencing and fuel timber, and w9er
water is not upon the surface, it can b
obtained at depth Of less than frol
ten to eighteen feet beneath the surface
sufficient for all farming and stock pu'
poses, and where no irrigation is n
quired. It is the finest body of whe'
land now unoccupied upon this coast.
