SCHOOL LANDS ARE
SOLD AT A LOSS
MILLIONS ARE SACRIFICED
IN DISPOSING OF PROPERTY
worthless Acres are Being Held by
the state and Valuable Tracts are
Disposed of Through UnfamiIiarity
OF State Boards.

Salem, Ore, March 12.-"Th,
school fund of the state of Oregon
has been beaten out of millions o.
dollars simply because the state lane
boards have not had data as to the
value of school lands that have beer
sold.' is the surprising statement
made by State Land Agent II. A
Rinehart
speaking in round numbers. we
have s6,OOO,OOO in the school fund
and we ought to have $4,000, 600
Nearly all the school land in western
oregon has been sold-at some price
We have about 100000 acres of
school land left, most of which is in
the eastern part of the state. An
appraisement of the land has never
been made.
When a man comes to the state
land board and wants to buy school
land, he offers price and we have
no information by which we can
tell whether he is offering to nav
full value for the land or only a
third of its value. And you may de-
pend on it that the offer is usually
much less than the true value.
we have minimum price fixed
of $3.50 an acre. School land that
is worth more than that price has
been readily sold, while the real $3.50
land and poorer quality has been left
on the states hands,"
This matter came before the state
land board in a proposition State
Land Agent Rinehart made to under
taFe' the appraisement of all the
school land left to the state. He is
urging the board to permit him to
begin on the task in May, after the
weather is settled. His plan is to
take wagon and team and make a
personal inspection of every section
belonging to the state. He says the
work will take two or three sum-
mers to accomplish, but that the da-
ia secured will be the means of saw
ing to the school fund large sums.
Just now the land board is negoti-
ating with the federal government in
an effort to get the government to
send special agent here to clear up
the state title to certain swamp
lands within the state. If the agent
is sent and the work is done the COM
ing summer it will likely interfere
with state Land Agent Rinehart un-
dertaking the appraisement of the
school lands until next year.
