Disposal OF Pnblio Lands

WASHINGTON, ID. D., Aug. 25.-A
statement OF the disposal of public
lands during the fiscal year ending June
80, 1882, has been prepared At the gen.
eral land office and shows that the Total
number of acres disposed of was 15.-
d99 ,S4S, an increase over last year of
about 100000 acres. The cash re-
ceived for this land aggregates about
$3.50, 100, against about 5000 600 for
the last fiscal year. The number of
acres entered for agricultural pur-
yoses as cash sales during the
year amounted to 3,699, 800 acres !;
desert lands, 166,055; coal lands,
1894 acres; G.347, 729 acres we're entered
under the homestead laws, while 2,2l6,
pa acres were proved up" under the
same laws under timber culture acts,
2,6O9, 7O7 acres were entered and s'proved
up" under the various land warrants.
railroad grants, school and state selec.
ton acts, including the various kinds of
scrip, 6.l5S. 666 acres were disposed of.
The great increase in the disposition of
public lands during the last fiscal year
IS SAID to be owing to the immense I'M
migration IN the northwest
In Dakota the increase is more notice
able than in any other state of territory
a very large increase is nov noticeable
in Louisiana and Florida.
The area OF state and railroad selsc-
tlOns IS more complete than ever before,
and this adds greatly to the aggregate
number of acres disposed of during the
past year. The area ofcash sales in Da
kota alone were COS, Q94 acres, the home
stead entries in the same territory was
more than 1000 900 acres. The returns
from several of the local Offices are not
yet in for the month of June, and the
amounts in those instances have been es-
timated.
