The "famiue fever has made its ap.

lies to the reality of the conditions
which have excited anxiety for the
future of the people of that unfortunate

like yellow fever or like the plague
which is devastating British India: il
is caused by eating diseased potatoes,

Suggests the Proper Method of Applying
For Forfeited Lands.

Suggests the Proper Method of Applying
For Forfeited Lands.
Land Commissioner Baker writes:
To applicants for School Lands, espe-
cially in nori hwest Texas: About 80
per cent of the applications to Purchase
sch DOL lands awaiting action by this
department have been filed to buy
lands which are under lease. The law
provides that lands under lease cannot
be sold in the following cases:
l. When the lessee has actually
settled upon such section, or part of
section, and erected thereon his resi-
dence and utstantial improvements for
permanent settlement.
2. When he has placed on such sec
| ton, or part OF section, improvements
of the value of $500.
3. When the aggregate of the lands
owned by settler and leased by him
does not exceed one section.
| An fidavit Of three cred bic citizens
| that neither of the ab2ve conditions
exist, to be filed in the land Office with
the application to Purchase, has to be
sent here before we can finally pass on
these applications. You will see that
after aiting for weeks before we can
reach and pass on many applications,
as we have to take them up in the
order of fling, and when we would be
ready to settle the matter, we are com
PEELED to lay them aside and write tC
the applicant to send such affidavits as
are above referred to, which takes an
other week or two. If you wish to as
sist US you will send along these aft
davits in advance.
Again, notice is given that no man
being on q town lot can buy additional
school lands.
| Again, a person living on home
stead who has not lived on it for three
consecutive years and cannot make
proof Of occupancy, as required by law
cannot buy additional school lands.
Again, h person residing upon other
lands not school lands, must be an own
er and not d part owner. Owning an
interest in the land with others will
not do. He cannot buy additional
| school lands.
Again, it is useless to write letters
Offering to make proof OF facts stated
| in the letter, if needed, You must
| make out your case now and in ad-
| vance Parties will readily understand
that we cannot tell before we reach
their case, whether any proof is need
ed or not, and when we do reach it, if
the proof is not there, the case is de-
cided on the record as it stands.
Now, do beg and humbly pray that
| local papers publish this for Informal
ton of the people in their counties
Nothing they can publish can possibly
be of more interest to their home

render a patriotic service to the state
and greatly relieve the land office.
