NEW PRACTICES IN
THE LAND OFFICE
The Government Institutes
Means to Protect Entry
men at Las Cruces.

Las Cruces, N. NJ. Jan. 1.-THE
United States land office at Las Cruces,
N NJ, has just received a copy of the
new rules of practice. which will gov
ern all proceedings before the local
land offices. the general land office
and the secretary of the interior, be-
ginning February I, 1911.
The new rules of practice make
many very important changes in land
office matters, the most important OF
which is in the matter of contests
Heretofore a contest against any en-
try could be made by any one, which
has caused a good deal Of useless liti-
cation before the department, owing to
the fact that neighboring homesteaders
disagreeing, often brought contests for
spite, others brought contests with a
view to selling the preference right to
the land acquired by reason of the con-
test, and, in fact, it has been the prac-
tice to initiate contests against home
stead and other entrymen on very
slight pretexts.
Who May Bring Contests.
However, beginning February 1. 1911,
contests can only be brought by per-
sons seeking to acquire title to, or
claiming an interest in, the land in
volved. For this reason, after Febru-
airy 1. any one initiating a contest
against any entryman will have to
show, first, that he Is seeking to &C
quire title to the land IN contest; sec
ond. a statement of the law under
which he intends to acquire title If he
is given a preference right; third, a
sworn statement showing that he is
qualified entryman; fourth. that the
contest he is initiating is not collusive
or speculative, but will be diligently
pursued in good faith.
Must BE Witnessed.
All of the above statements, together
with the usual statement Of charges
and allegations, must be cororborated
by one witness under oath.
Upon a contest being allowed by the
officials of the local land office a
notice of the charges made will be sent
to the entryman Unless he appears
within 80 days after service Of this
notice upon him and answers the
charges, or denies the same, the allie
cations made will be taken as confess
ed and decision will be rendered by
the register and receiver without fur
Their proceedings.
The rule as to serving a notice of
contest either personally or by publica-
ton mas not been changed.
DismiSsing Contests.
Another important change provides
that unless a notice of contest is per-
sonally served, and proof of this ser
vice returned to the local land office
within 80 days after issuance of such
notice. or if where service by publica-
ton is ordered. publication is not COM
menced within 10 days after the order
is made, and the proof of publication
filed with the local office within 10
days after the last publication, then
the contest shall be dismissed This
will prevent contests being unneces-
Sarily prolonged.
Time Allowed to Answer.
Another change requires an entry
man whose land has been contested,

Farmers Institute Meetings.

The Craig County Farmers Institute
has secured the services of Hon. Hardy
Dial and Prof. John w. Wilkinson, two
of the state lecturers of the state
board of agriculture, who will make
a "whirlwind campaign" of Craig
county. Thursday. Friday and Satur-
day of this week for the purpose of
arousing the interest of our people in
agriculture and stock-raising, and or,
ganizing boys and girls corn clubs.
They will lecture at the following
places on the following dates:
bluejacket, 10 a. M, Thursday
April 9Th.
Welch, 3 p. M, Thursday, April 9Th.
Centralia, II a. M, Friday, April 7th.
Vinita, Y p. M, Saturday, April Sth.
These men are experts of more than
statewide reputation and bring a mes
sage which If heard by our people, will
mean thousands of dollars annually to
Craig county, and as these lectures
are absolutely free, every man, wo-
man and child who possibly can should
attend.

the institute.
I repeat. the institute is merely q
vehicle belonging to the board of agri
culture and A. & NJ. college for con
veying improved agricultural truths
to farming people; a disseminator Of
agricultural information to those who
without its aid. will be compelled "a
seek a living in some other occupa
tion.
Il is clearly recognized by everyone
from the highest to the lowest. that
the tilIage Of the soil is the natural
and most desirable occupation for men,
TO which every other is subsidiary and
to which all else must in the end yield,
as the first requisite.
The Farmers Institute is merely a
travelling school OF agriculture that
teaches the latest and best plans that
science and practice have discovered
and brings it to the practical farmer
in such a way that he cannot forget
It and in such a form that he will be
able TO apply it. 1t is the official agent
for rural betterment; Il stands for
rural progress and improvements; and
ii brings to the rural community new
ideas and urges upon them the i'm
portance and benefit to be derived
from putting them into practice That
they need an awakening, 1t is not nee
essary to argue or prove. The demand
for products Is rapidly increasing,
hence we need increased agricultural
practice; what men have done and
the methods by which they succeed
ed, and thus introduce more economi-
cal and lucrative methods through
rural communities and make known
to the farmers the advantage of edu-
cation for the farmer; to point them
to the A. & M. College, the expert
ment station, the agricultural depart
ment, as reliable sources for informa-
tion.
Then the Woman's Auxiliary-Its
motto is to make the home SO pleas
ant and beautiful that the boys and
girls will not want to leave the farm
for pleasure and enjoyment.
We are receiving many inquiries in
regard to the institute work and find
deep interest manifested in these
things which make for a higher and
more wholesome country life as well
as more lucrative one.
Through the Junior Clubs" the
A. & M. College hopes to show by
practical monstration-which does
not interfere with them having another
plat in connection with this, to enable
them to compete for any prize that may
be offered-that the farmer should Sc
lect his planting seed with as much
care as the stock raiser selects his
sires and dams with which to begin
herd.
