SCHOOL LAND LEASES.
Quite an Income for the Schools OF
South Dakota.

Each year a greater amount OF the
state school and endowment lands are
taken under term lease, and leaving a
smaller area to be taken up in the an
nual leases. The funds received from
the annual leases for the past year
were s5S,271 for public school lands,
and $10,344 for endowment lands. The
greatest increase in leasing Is shown
in the range counties, the receipts IN
Butte county increasing from S1,510 to
$2,720 for the common school lands
and from 1882 to 1914 for endowment
lands. The other range counties all
show a decided increase, but Butte
shows the greatest percentage. The
counties east of the river, which con.
tain much of the endowment lands,
show a better demand for this class OF
lands, increasing in Sully county from
$196 to sl,254, with other counties
showing a heavy increase. The leas.
ing value of the endowment lands is
increasing from the fact that the set.
of the country which has been
used for free or partly free range,
forces the cattle owners to look for
lands which they can secure in large
bodies, and this can be supplied best
