* T.
The Instructions referring to entry
under the Smoot enlarged homestead
bill, which have been expected for.
some time, have arrived at the local
office from the department OF the in
terror, Washington. The act provides
for honisteading 800 acres of non-mtn-
eral. nom ilnbered and non-irrisable
public lands in what is known as the
arid regions of the west.
The Instructions covering this state
are as follows:
The sixth section of the act under
consideration provides that not exceed
ing 1000, 900 acres Of land in the State.

sufficient water suitable for domestic
purposes as will render continuous res
iGence upon such lands possible, may
be designated by the secretary of the
interior as subject to entry under the
provisions of this act: with the excep-s
ticn. however, that entrylnen of such
lands will not be required to prove
continuous residence thereon. The act
provides i'll such cases that all entry
