ing, member Of the state league

Lease Of School Lands,
Deputy Land G Commissioner Walter
F. Cushing offered the state school
lands in this county for lease at the
courthouse last Friday. The demand
was very lignt, the rentals received
tor the first year amounting 10 I'D.
$4,000. This small result is doubtless
owing 10 the TACT that the better hay
and pasture lands were leased last
spring. Mr.. Gushing will lease the
public lands in nearly every county
in the state, 50 far having held leas-
ings in Richland, Steele and Griggs
counties. In Richland county the
leasings amounted to $312.6o and in
Steele county to the handsome sum Of
$1297.22. He reports quite an in
quiry fer the purchase of school
lands, which indicates that farmers
have money for investment even it
the price Of grain is low. Parties
desiring any Of the school lands yet
unleased in this county can secure a
lease at the minimum price on appli
cation to Auditor Melgard. Mr..
Gushing was agreeably surprised at
the many improvements made in
Cooperstown since his stay in town
in 1886, and was glad to meet so
many old friends again.

that purpose would like to meet all
the boys of above age NJ Fireman's hall
Saturday afternoon at o'clock to talk
the matter over.
