MUCH knowledge
REQUIRED By U. S.
HOMESTEAD WITNESSES AND
CLAIMANTS OBLIGED TO FILL
OUT BLANKS TELLING or CROP
ON EVERY FORTY FOR FIVE
YEARS.

Az result Of a new set OF blanks
which are used In all homestead proofs
as result OF an order OF the depart
nent, II is seldom that a claimant an
pears at the United States landofice
prepared to make a perfect proof. II
is possible that the claimant in ques-
tioA was informed by his neighbor as
70 what was required when he proved
up and the fact that there has been a
recent change, is confusing to some
extent
At the present time witnesses In
homestead proofs are required to an
swer series Of questions concerning
the land which tells It's entire history
for the past Ave years, the length Of
time the homesteader has resided there.
The land is taken ND by forties and
q description Of the crop, the amount
harvested for each OF the 1--WE years is
required. To man not more inter-
ested than neighbor and whose OBJ
servations have not been particularly
close, II Is often next to impossible to
get the matter Strengthened out. 1t
would doubtless be necessary for the
claimant to keep diary In order to
get his story absolutely correct.
When appearing before a landoffice
to make proof claimants and witnesses
should be prepared to give the exact
crop history for five years.
