that if he has not yet made final proof the additional land sought or applied for must be contiguous to that en- braced in his original entry. If final proof has been made on the former entry additional land may be located anywhere, provided it is otherwise sub- ject to entry.
 While the government expects every applicant for government land to use due precaution in selecting the land he desires, it realizes that the human being is not infallible and that they are apt to make mistakes in applying for land, often misdescribing the tract he wants. The entryman is therefore allowed, upon a proper showing that he has made a mistake in filing on his entry and that he took proper precau- tion, to change his entry to the land he desires or, if that is already otherwise appropriated, to relinquish his entry and get his money back.
 The next article in this series will appear in The Arizona Republican of August 4, 1917.

A preference right to file on govern ment land may be secured by one quail flied to make entry by settling thereon or by successfully contesting an entry already in force In the former case the preference right exists for 90 days from the date of settlement or Gin case the land is unsurveyed) the filing of plat of survey. In case the settler dies before making entry the right to file passes to his widow if there be any, or. if there be no widow surviving, to his heirs or devisees. The prefer ence right accruing as a result of successful contest, continues for 30 days. In the event that the contestant dies before the contest has been con- cluded the preference right, if there be any, descends to the heirs.
 The maximum amount of land that may be entered under the homestead laws. except the Enlarged Homestead and the Stock Grazing Homestead Laws, is 160 acres with one exception. viz: land under government recla- nation project, where the maximum is the farm unit, which may be 40, so or 160 acres, accordingly as the secretary of the interior decides.
 The law requires that the land ap-
 
 tain only legal subdivisions Casually. but not always 40 acres). Thus one application may not include one tract of 40 80 or 120 acres in one locality and the balance of 160 acres allowed him in another. The land must be contagious or the application will be rejected Nor may a person file on part of a 40acre tract. say 20 or 30 acres And it makes no difference that part of the subdivision is entirely un- desirable and worthless. Under the law it is all or nothing. But while an application must embrace contiguous lands and only legal subdivisions the land applied for may be situated in different sections or even different counties, states or land districts. Where the application includes lands located in different land districts a copy of it should be filed in the United States land office wherein each tract is located.
 Where a person has made entry un- der the general homestead laws for less than 160 acres he is allowed to make an additional homestead entry for an amount of land which together with the land already entered will not exceed 160 acres, with this proviso:

PUBLIC LAND
 DEPARTMENT

By special arrangement with A. Mandl, land attorney, The Arizona Republican will conduct a Land Department. Not only will Attor- ney Mandl, through the RepubIi- can, attempt to answer questions of general interest relating to pub lie lands, federal and state, but he also proposes to place this depart ment without charge at the serv- ice of all homestead entrymen who have enlisted in or been called to the service of our country. Those desiring to avail themselves of this service should notify this de- partment. Such notices should state number and date of entry and full description of land entered. All communication should be ad- dressed to Land Editor, Arizona Republican.
 The Republican assumes no re- sponsibiIity for the views or opin- ions expressed in this department. This responsibility rests entirely with Attorney Mandl, who ranks among the successful specialists in public land law in the south west. He is a graduate of the New York university. was for years connected with the General Land Office and with local land office as special agent and law clerk. -

NEURALGIA AND SCiAT!CA

Jain and it is unmistakable.
In large proportion OF cases anernia
and debility are responsible for neural
gia, particularly in women. To remedy
the neuralgia condition it is necessary
TO build up the blood and improve the
general health and for this purpose
there is nothing better nor more con.
venient than DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Sciatica is nothing more than neu'
ralgia of the sciatic nerve.
If you have neuralgia or sciatlc pains
do not 60 to great expense for treat
ment until you have tried building up
the blood. If you are pale the chances
are very strong that the treatment with
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are all that
you will require. Hot applications and
tiniments may be used at the same
time if you desire. They may relieve
the pain and temporary relief is the
best you can expect from them anyway.
The pain in the nerve is caused by
nerve starvation. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills give to the blood the elements
that tho nerves need. They contain no
narcoticc and are not pain killers.
They remove the cause of the pain.

A PLEASING SURPRISE

If you are sore and aching from
sprain. strain. burns, bruises, or mus
cular rheumatism, it is extremely pleas
ing to learn, after YOU have secured
something advertised to relieve your
particular affliction that not only have
you obtained a preparation that is ex-
cellent for external use, but also one
you can safely and unhesitatingly take
inwardly for coughs, colds, sore throat,
cramps, chills, etc, if necessary to
have its soothing and healing qualities
go direct to the seat of an internal
trouble. Most liniments, for example,
have only one value-external use
but in the case, say. Of the we'll known
Johnson's Anodyne Liniment, the
double value-lnternal and external use
is there. This splendid preparation,
from the prescription of an erstwhile
old family physician, has been human
ity's staunch friend for over 100 years,
and its great army of users, thankful
for its wonderful. virtue, feel that john
sons Anodyne Liniment-the double
value liniment-is IAN angel in dis

Must Work Yourself
The point l wish TO make by this little
DEPRESSION is that no professional can teach
you everything; not in ii day, a. year in
one lesson, or twenty, so that you may
become fine player, or champion golfer.
After the professional has impaired his
ideas the greater part Sf the work still
rests upon you.
A fine golf game results from a careful
selection OF ideas picked up day In and
day out all along the way You will come
out Of the heap If you can learn to reject
the ideas that are bad for you, and 10 hold
fast to those that are good for you. Work.
