NEW RULING OF INTEREST
TO DESERT ENTRYMEk

The L. S. land office at Yakima has
received notice of the passage of
two bills by congress, provisions of
which make important changes in the
public land laws and which come into
: operation forthwith. 1t provides for
"second" entries under the desert
land law, on conditions similar to
those under which "second" home
stead entries may be made The other
measure is entitled an act "limiting
and restricting the right Of entry and
assignment under the desert land law
and authorizing extension of time
within which to make final proof"
Both are are important and of inter
est in Kit;itas valley, where many
desert claims have been filed on and
are still held.
The new law provides that right to
make entry of desert lands under the
PlON vi tlC dCl VI .hdICI, 1910,
and of the amendment act of March.
1891, shall be restricted to surveyed
public lands, and no entries of unsur
veyed lands shall be allowed, provid
ed, however, that any person who
has, prior to survey, taken possession
Of unsurveyed desert land not exceed
$50 acres and has reclaimed the land
in good faith, or commenced so to re-
claim it, shall have preferential
right to make entry within 80 days
after the filing of the approved plat
Of survey in the district land office.
1t also provides that no assignment
of desert land entries shall be allowed
or recognized, except such assignments
be to individuals who are known to
be qualified to make entry under the
desert land laws. Such assignm ents
may cover all or part of land entries.
But no such assignments to or for the
benefit of any corporation or associa-
ton shall be authorized or recognized.
Any entryman who shall show sat
isfactorily that he has in good faith
complied with the terms and require
ments of the desert land laws but
but through una yodable delay in the
construction of irrigation works is un-
able to make proof of the reclamation
or cultivation of his land shall, upon
the filing of a corroborated affidavit,
be allowed an additional period not
exceeding three years within which
to furnish the required proof.
The act regarding the "second en-
tries on desert lands provides that
"any person who, prior to to the pas
sage of this act, has made entry under
the desert land laws, but from any
cause has lost, forfeited or abandoned
the same, shall be entitled to the ben
fits of the desert land law as though
such former entry had not been made,
and any person applying for second
desert land entry under this act shall
furnish the description and date of
the former entry, provided that the
provisions of this act shall not apply
to any person whose former entry
was assigned in whole or in part or
Cancelled for fraud or who relinquished
the former entry for a valuable con-
sderation.

by the State Board at IS, 500 per

ROTATE YOUR CROPS

The greatest danger that threat
ems the Colorado farmer. iu the
opinion OF Henry Wallace, one of
the members of President koose-
velt's farm commission, who was
in Denver the first part of this
week, will be the failure to rotate
crops and retain the life in the
ground. Another menace. and
perhaps II greater one, in the
opinion of Mr.. Wallace, is dry
farming. He believes dry farm
ing is all right in wet years and
with men OF capital who can afford
to plant ore year and rest the
next. But. he says, it is crime
for IA man to take a dry farm and
pursue Iowa methods.
