FINED s10O FOR LEAVING CAMP
FIRE IN FOREST

Charged with abandoning a fire
within the Okanogan national forest
without totally extinguishing the same
A. L. Arneson, of Mabton, Washing
ton, appeared before the department
of justice at Spokane, Feb. II, and en-
tered plea of nolo contendere. He
was adjudged guilty upon this plea
and fined 500 by the court.
This fire trespass occurred in July,
1917, when Mr.. Arneson, who was
working with sheep outfit near Hid
den Lakes, on the Okanogan national
forest, in northern Washington, left
camp without putting out his camp
fire.
The fire spread to the surrounding
timber and before it was extinguished
burned over about seventy-five hun
bred acres of timber land, killed and
rendered understandable fifteen mil
lion feet of saw timber having an es-
timated value of $3.50, besides de-
stroying immature timber, young
growth and forage value at $4,000.
In addition to thse losses it cost the
forest service $5,264.54 to suppress the
fire and prevent it's doing greater
damage.

NEW RULING ON HoMEsTEADs

"a decision rendered in the stock
raising homestead act by the secre-
tary of the interior, changes several
rulings heretofore made by the land
office in matters relating to the TAX
ing of additional homestead grazing
land" said John L. Wiley, register of
the government land office in Spo-
kane this week. "This is of great in
terest to homesteaders, permitting
them to do what hitherto we have
always advised that they could not
do" The gist of the decision is as fol-
lows:
Where a person is entitled to 40 or
more acres under the ordinary home
stead laws, that is, land known as
160-acre land, he is entitled to make
an original stock raising entry of
enough more land to make in all $40
acres. The first entry does not need
to be designated as grazing land, and
the stock raising land does not need
to be within 20 miles of the first entry.
To illustrate: If the entryman has
taken homestead of 120 or less acres
he would then be entitled to take
enough more land which the depart
ment would designate as grazing land
to make $40 in all. He could take it
in any state where he could find such
land and his first entry of 100 acres
would not have to be designated as
grazing land. The balance of his right
taken as a stock raising entry is
treated as an original entry.
The 20 mile limitation applies only
to an additional entry under the stock
raising act, unless the first entry I'M
der other laws was not perfected, that
is, final proof had not been made.
