AN IMPORTANTLAND RULING.

The department of the interior has
handed down ruling under date of
March IS, holding that when an entry
man sells his Improvements on the land
and relinquishes his entry in connection
Herewith he is not entitled to make
second homestead entry under the act of
February IS, 1908. This decision is OF
far-reaching effect, as almost daily such
entries have been allowed by registers and
receivers of United States land offices in
southern Idaho. No further entries un-
der this act, however, whose improve
ments have been sold, will be allowed uE-
till the full text Of the ruling has been
received.
There is some question also concerning
entries already allowed, but it is not con-
sidered probable that any entries prior to
March Is will be affected Entrymen
taking lands under this act subsequent
to this ruling will no doubt be notified to
appear and show cause why their entries
should not be cancelled. This will nee
essitate filing additional afidavits to the
effect that they received no consideration
for improvements upon lands formerly
relinquished. In order for an entryman
to avail himself of the provisions of the
act of February s, 1908, it seems he must
aver that his former entry was aban-
doned and that no consideration of any
kind was received either for improve
ments or REIMBURSEMENT.
Notice to Commissioners.
The ruling win be announced in circu-
lars to be mailed to the commissioners in
the Boise district today as follows
United States Commissioners and
Other Officers Taking Homestead Appli-
cations 1t was decided by the depart
ment on March 1S, 1909, that when an
entry nan sells his improvements on the
lanG and relinquishes his entry in con-
nection Herewith he is not entitled to
make second homestead entry under
the act of February 8, 1908. In view of
this decision it will be necessary in all
cases for second homestead entry for
them to add to the second homestead
affidavit that they did not sell their inn
provements on the land of the former en-
try and relinquish the entry in connec-
ton Herewith.
