One Piece Sold at $30.0O.-2,500
Acres Bring an Average Price
of $500 Per Acre.

The sale of state lands for Bel

LANDS In FOREST RESERVE
AREN'T SUBJECT TO ENTRY
Stone and Timber Entries Made Valid Prior to With
drawal of Lands, Will Not Be Effected by
Creation of Forest Reserve.

In event that this land proves to
be of value for forest purposes and
a National Forest created such
action would have no effect upon
the valid claims already established,
but after the creation of the forest,
the title of the land cannot pass
from the United States, except under
the act of June II, 1906, and under
the mineral land laws. You doubt
less know the act of June II, 1906,
authorizes the secretary of agricul-
ture to list with the secretary of the
interior lands upon National For
ests which are chiefly valuable for
agriculture and not needed for ad-
ministrative purposes, and when
lands become so listed they are open
to entry under the regular homestead
laws.
THE Timber and Stone law does
not apply in National Forests. 1t
is not quite clear from your letter
whether you wish to know the status
of timber and stone claims within
the withdrawal of National Forests,
or whether you desire an explana-
ton of the Timber and Stone laws.
Under the act of June 3, 1878, and
subsequent amendments the tim
Der and stone laws were extended
to all public land states. This act
enables any citizen in the United
States, or person who has filed his
intention of being a citizen of the
United States, to take up 160 acres
of nonmineral, nonagricultural land,
which is chiefly valuable for timber
or stone at the rate of $3.50 per acre.
Only one claim can be taken up by
each individual as is the case in
homestead entries, and he is not
allowed to take up this land for
speculative purposes, nor in the
interest of any other person. Severe
penalties are inflicted, including the
forfeiture of money and land for any
attempt to obtain this land fraudu-
lently. Any further information
upon this subject will be supplied
by the Commissioner of the land
office.
Yours very truly,
H. O. Stobler,
Acting chief"
