There are about 100000 acres OF
unsold lands in Kansas. The leg.
islature of 1895 enacted law pro-
hibiting the further sale of school
lands for a period of two years.
This was to give the irrigation
board room to experiment. The
board established irrigation plants
on these lands. The two years are
now up aud the lands can be sold
whenever the state superintendent
of public instruction makes an or
der placing them on the market.
The land is in Western Kansas and
much of Il would not bring the
minimum price prescribed by law,
s. an acre. Superintendent Stryker
proposes a measure which he be-
lieves will meet with the approval
of the legislature. 1t authorizes
that the lands be leased for term
of years. aEven II we could lease
them for only 81 IN acre Il would be
better than to let them lie idle"
Mr.. stryker says. A bill to this ef-
feet will be prepared and intro
duced.
