LONG AND TIMBER CULTURE.


An Amendment to the Timber Culture Re
peal Act Introduced.
From the State Journals Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S. = An amend
ment to the timber culture repeal act
which is of interest in the western parts
of the Seventh and Sixth districts, has
been introduced in the house by repre-
sentative Long. 1t provides that per-
sons who have made entries under the
old timber culture laws may make final
proof before any court of record. The
present law requires that the final proof
shall be made at the land office
court of record in the land district in
which the land is situated.
The result has been that the non-resi-
dent holders of timber claims have in
most cases failed to make final proof be-
cause they did not think it worth their
making trip to the land. This amend
ment will allow them to make that proof
at their homes. The object is to bring
large area of land under taxation which
is not now subject to it.
