Remarkable Number of transactions
at the Chamberlain Land Office
The Month of November Was a
Record Breaker.

During the month of November the
United States land office located ut
Chamberlain transacted. the following
business: Original homestead entries,
81. appropriating lands to the extent of
1880 acres; final proofs on homcsteads,
16, pcrfecting title to $3.50 acres; COM
muted proofs, 81, covering 1920 acres,
or a total of 1874 entries, involving title
to $4,000 acres. Considering the sea-
son of the year this showing is quite re-
markable, and it is reasonable to sup
pose that with such activity during Win
ter months the influx of immigration in
the spring is likely to he something of a
record breaker. In addition to the de
mand for government lands the demand
for decided lands continues undated. and
many transfers are recorded daily at the
office of Register of Deeds Cliggitt. who
states that business has never been
more active in his Office than ut present.
