Ia, has made on investigation Of the
situation.
persons desiring to make homestead
entries said Mr.. Femrite. SHOULD
first fully inform themselves as to the
character and quality Of lands they
desire to crtcr and should in no case
apply to enter until they have tx
amined each legal subdivision for
which they make application. Salts
factory information concerning the
lands may he obtained from a personal
visit to the district In which one
wishes 10 take out land.
Each applicant Is required to swear
that he Is well acquainted with the
character of the land described In
his application and the only way that
h" can assure himself that prior
settlers have nc claim Is to make a
personal inspection of same
y e~X-$""vice man Is required to
establish residence on the land in
VOWED after his entry Is allowed, un-
less an extension of time is granted
OF account of sickness, climatic
reasons or similar xcuses Credit is
given for service In the Army, Navy
or Marines, providing the applicant
has had eighteen months Of service. n
such Is tn" case. tie applicant is re.
Quircd to live on the land only seven
months. If he obtains so much credit
for military service that there is re-
Qlirrh only on" years residence. he
must prove only such amount NJ
cultivation as will prove his good faith
as n homestead claimant. If his
credit for service requires more than
one years residence, he must show

There Is only one portion OF the
country where land may be obtained
without the requirement Of n home,

10000 acres open. for which no home
stead Is required. but which necessi'
tates the payment OF seventy-five

dollar per acre for improvement. This
Is arid land which may be used fol

three hundred dollars an acre. II
Is estimated that the cost Of irriga'
tion on three hundred and twenty
acres is about $4,000.
approximately 49,. 900, 900 acres o.
land are open, including every state

Mexico Newspaper Says Tacoma Maj, is Official Representative

Mexico City, Oct. 5.-(By Associat- cd Press. )-Reports that Elmer Do- yer Of Tacoma, Wash, had been named personal representative of President Harding in Mexico which were current some time ago, were re- viyed here today by the newspapeI Excelsior. Information 'obtained with the greatest difficulty from high Mexican sources,' according to the newspaper, indicated that 'overtures from the State department in Wash ington, expected to pave the way fol speedy recognition of the Obregon government by the United States were being brought to Mexico City by Mi Dover who was expected to arrive here his afternoon"
 MT. Dover was said to have been gwen an autographed letter to Presi- dent Obregon by MT. Harding, this being the fourth in an important ser ies of personal communications be- tween the two executives.
 The newspaper statements were not iii accordance. with general belief here that George T. Summerlin, U. $ Charge d 'Affaires, had been designat- ed sole spokesman and representative of the United States government in the negotiations preliminary to recogni- ton. Sunmerlin said last night he had received no instructions from the State department relative to MT. Do vcr's visit to Mexico.
