(From oatman Section Daily Miner)


 At the 0atman Combination drift ing continues east and west on the 500-foot level. The east drift is now 200 feet in length. A large quartz stringer has been followed in the drift for some time. It is thought to be an off-shoot from the main vein which is believed to be near.
 Pannings from the stringer show free gold, and assays as high as s9 have been obtained from it. It is the opinion of the management that within a very short time the vein will be exposed. The west drift is 150 feet long.

Oregon Lands Are
Taken Up Fast

Figures collected by o. P. Hoff.
state labor commissioner, from Ore
gon land offices, show that July l.
1916. there were 15,337,sO9 acres OF
vacant public lands in Oregon open
to settlement and entry under the
provisions of the homestead laws.
OF this amount 13,942,34S acres are
surveyed. This acreage is a decrease
in the year of 104,369 acres and
632 OS7 acres since July l, 1914
Much of the acreage taken up in
the last two years was under the
timber and stone acts, mineral, coal.
desert land entries and withdrawn
for power sites and public water re-
serves. A small portion was taken
the homestead act From the rec
ords obtainable," said Mr.. Hoff. 1T
would appear that desirable home
stead lands are scarce in Oregon. es-
pecially in the part lying west OF the
Cascades"
OF the 1S.942.34S acres of sur
yeyed lands only 257,71S acres, or
about IS per cent, are situated in
western Oregon. and a very small
percentage Of this area is suitable
for practical homesteading.
Many Oregon counties show an in
crease in the public land area, and
of this total 24,S22 acres lie west of
the Cascade mountains and repre-
sent entries that have been cancelled
for nonfulfillment of statutory re-
quirements, or relinQuisned for the
reason that they were found unten-
able for homestead purposes.
In the high plateau regions of east
enr and central Oregon, where irriga-
tion and dry farming methods are
used and the enlarged homestead act
applies, there is abundant opportun-
ity for settlement and entry, and it
is in this region that the great bulk
of the homestead settlement has tax
en- place during recent years.
The opening of the o. & c. grant
lands will add great acreage to
Jackson countys public lands.
