The Times Herald is in receipt

The Times-Herald is in receipt
of a letter written by H. l..
Mcdonald, a deputy U. S. stock
inspector, who has been in this
section more or less for two
years, saying the reported loss
Of sheep had been greatly exag-
gerated. The letter was written
from Andrews under date of
Feb. IL and Mr.. Mcdonald had
just come up from DEMO. He
says in part: I'VE are having a
chinook" at Wild Horse Valley
yesterday and today and snow is
practically all gone. Carlson
says weather is good in Catlow
Valley also. Unless we have an
unfavorable spring l do not
think the loss will exceed 10 per
cent and in many cases not over
5 per cent. This is 1, certainly
good news and indicates that the
reports were scares rather than
facts.

'aThe first proviso to section

THE first proviso to section l
of the act provides that the peri
cd of communication or of actual
residence under the homestead
law shall not be shortened. En-
trymen who have taken advan-
tage of this extension cannot
submit Communication proof until
they have maintained substan-
tally continuous residence for Ia
months from the date same was
established; and in five year proof
cannot claim credit for construc-
tive residence for more than six
months prior to the date actual
residence was established.
Under the second proviso of
section / the act will not be held
to defeat the adverse claim of
one who made entry over SOL
dier's declaratory statement, and
who prior to the passage of the
act had established a bona fide
residence on the land entered,
where the six months from date
of the reclaratory statement had
expired prior to the passage of
the act without the soldier hav-
ing made his homestead entry
and established his residence
on the land.
'The second section of the act
grants a leave of absence for
three months from January %,
1910, to all homestead entrymen
or settlers in the states named in
the first section of the act. En-
trymen who avail themselves of
this leave of absence cannot claim
credit for residence during the
time they are absent under such
leave, such period of absence be-
ing simply eliminated from con-
sideration in cases of either final
or communication proofs,

HOMESTEADERs GIVEN MORE TIME.

The commissioner of the gen.
eral land office has promulgated
a set of regulations for the guild
ance of registers and receivers
of local land offices in the admin
istration of the provisions of an
act of congress. approved Janu-
ary %, 1910, extending the time
for certain homesteaders to es-
tablish residence upon their lands,
as follows:
''The first section of the act
applies to all homestead entries
in the states named made after
June l, 1909, and in such cases
the entrymen are given until May
Is, 1910, to establish residence
on their claims. 1t also applies
to soldiers declaratory state
ments filed in the states named
after June 1, 1909, and such de-
clarants are given until May 15,
1910, to make their homestead
entries and establish their resi-
dence on the land. If any pay
ment is required to be made in
connection with the entry under
the declaratory statement, as in
the case of ceded Indian reserva-
tons, the act also operates to ex-
tend the payment until the entry
is made.

LYING ABOUT HARVEY COUNTY.

Among the outside arrivals
this week were Richard and
Henry Hedges and G. e. Boil
singer, the latter q dentist from
Tacoma. DR.. Bolsinger says
there is a syndicate Of real estate
sharks up in Washington that
are lying about this country.
They seem to be an unscrupulous
set who get their victims to put
up $125 location fees before leav-
ing Seattle on the representation
that there is no one here in the
locating business and that they
must have a man come with them.
They praise the country and
have an old man in a nearby
office who has a fine display of
grain, grass, vegetables, etc.
which he claims to have raised
on his place in Harvey County
near Malheur lake. The old
man says he wouldn't take $780,
600 for it and the land hungry
man puts up his $125 and thinks
it cheap. When he lands here
they have their men to locate
them if they can. The old
mans place is not shown them
for he never did any more on the
place than was absolutely neces-
sary to make communication proof.
The victims are located on any
vacant 160 or 800 acres handy
with the assurance that it is the
finest kind of soil, no alkali or
anything that would be detri-
mental, although it is covered
with snow.
The Times-Herald has this
from good authority and hopes
the work of such men will soon
be found out and they put on the
bum. Their agents here should
be asked to leave town.

The first sagebrush distillery
will be in operation at Reno next

the Chicago manufacturers of
the plant, says he will show the
people how at a cost of $5 he
will produce five products from a
ton of sagebrush worth $50. The
most important item will be al

in sagebrush distillation in Ne

people but the continuous crops

BOXING CONTEST.

There will be a Is round glove
contest at the hall next Saturday
evening between Sailor" Hert-

This promises to be one of the
classiest scraps ever seen in this
section and will be full Of inter-
est throughout. The Sailor"

tailoring establishment Of Schenk
Bros, but he was formerly on
the British battleship Victoria
where he defeated sixteen men
and fought the 18th man draw.
The Frisco Kidd" claims to
