placed on the statutes, SO said senator

senate Iogged-off lands committee,
and authority on the logged-of land
problem.
The operation of the law under the

development district. This dis
trict can be any size, the county COM

serve three years, one retiring yearly.
The elections will be held the first
Saturday in each year.
The commissioners shall have the

domination any agricultural lands,
and any waters suitable for irrigat lion

wise acquire materials and equip
ment to be used in the development
of agricultural land.
To give aid in the marketing Of the

To create and fill such Offices as
may be necessary to carry out the pro-
visions of the act.
The commissioners will at once after

survey of all unimproved lands with
their districts. Lands held in private
ownership may be acquired at price
not to exceed $25 per acre for arid
lands and $15 an acre for logged off
land.
Settlers can turn their land over to
the district with preferential right
of purchase after it has been improv-
ed.
Clearing and deveopment of the
land shall be done by contract work,
the commissioner being authorized to
do the work themselves by day labor
If they so desire.
After development the property is
to be sold to settlers on the deferred
payment plan, at rate of interest
