To tho editor Of the Graphic:

To the editor Of the Graphic:
On January 7th wrote to Senator
Hansbrough making complaint Of the
condition OF affairs in this section Of the
country in regard to taking final proofs.
and Senator HansbrouRh forwarded the
same to Hon. W. A. Richards, COM
missioner Of the general land Office. I
have received through Senator Hans
broueh the commissions reply to this
letter.
The commissioner states in part that
such regulations contemplate las the
special agents have been advised). that
the local officers and the special agents
shall 6x dates for taking the proofs out.
side of the local Offices where applicants
may submit final proof without nnneces-
sary expense and trouble. and where
tho special agent can in the interests Of
the government attend the taking Of
proofs. It was further contemplated that
this method would afford speedy actions
on such proofs. Strict aud definite
instructions have been given the special
agents to take prompt aud d+sisive
actious upon any case coming before
them. % that the claimant may not be
needlessly put to trouble and expense
because of failure on part of the agent
to perform Ills duty.
The commissioner further states that
be has directed that two more special
agents proceed to North Dakota to
assist in the disposition of the accumu.
lated work in that district.
1t would appear from this that 1t was
not the intention Of the department,
that The attendance Of the special agent
IN taking proofs should work a hardship
to legitimate claimants or that it should
be more difficult to make final proof out
side of the land office than at the land
office.
We believe that the commissioner
will make every effort to relieve condi-
tons here and make it a. convenient
and practical to prove up here as 1t
wonld DO At Minot. aud the people OF
this section OF country will most GER
tsinly appreciate the commissioner
efforts in relieving us Of the intolerable
conditions which prevail at the pressn t
time. Very truly yours,

for . tract exceeding one hundred and
sixty acres to any one land owner"
Owners of moro than 100 acres may how
ever subscribe for water rights for all
their lands with the understanding
that tho amount in excess Of ore hold
ing must be subdivided into tracts of
100 acres or less and sold to other per-
sons who will comply with all require.
using the irrigation water, by which to
perfect their water right. The sale Of
the lands in excess Of 100 'aures, owned
by any individual, may be accomplish
Cd during the years of construction of
tho irrigation works, but il this has not
been done when the works are complete
and able to supply the water, then the
owner must empower the association to
effect the svle.
The maximum acreage for which any
person can secure water right is 16O
acres as stated above but it is within
the discretion and power of the secre-
tary to reduce the size OF holdings to
12O. 80 or 40 acres. it being expressly
stated in the Reclamation Act that the
"limit shall represent the acreage which
in the opinion OF the Secretary may be
reasonably required for the support Of
. family upon the lands in question.
The size of the farm unit" will be
greater in Northern portions OF the
country where the irrigation season is
shortest and smaller in tho Southern
portions where longer irrigation sea-
son enables greater number of crops
to be raised per year: from which it
max be assumed that the NAHUM size
Of farm units will be allowed in North
Dakota.
GENERAL STATEMENT ON BU-
FORD-TRENTON PROJECT
Preliminary estimates have been has
ed upon a rough survey OF the Buford-
Trenton project and on the following
| data
Length of irrigating season, 100 days
Duty of water 2 acre feet per acre,
Cost Of coal, $500 per ton,
Area of land irrigated, $4,000 acres
This estimate gives
Total first cost for 1900 acres. $500, 000
Total annual charges for $1,000
Approximate first cost ,; per :; acre. .siS 81
Approximate annual cost per A.. 2 90
This meane an annual payment for
10 years of 81. 66 per acre for first cost
and $500 per acre for operation, or a
total Of 3.66 per acre per year for the
ten years. After this time, tho cost for
operation and maintenance will be
abour 200 per year.
A more careful estimate is now being
made which will probably change these
figures somewhat. 1t is hoped that
thoy will be reduced, especially the cost
OF annual operation.
For use in forming the water users as.
ISOLATION, the general figures given above
can be used.
