TIME FOR ASSESSMENT
 WORK ON MINING CLAIMS
Hdited by

State attorney general Galbraith, in reference to the new federal law regarding the time in which annual work must be done on mining claims, says: .,
 On all claims, where under the old law, the annual work should have been done on or before December 31, 1921, the owner of the claim shall have up to noon, July 1, 1922, in which to do his work. In other words, all claims located in 1920, or before, the claimants have until July 1, 1922, in which to do their annual work. All claims located on and after January 1, and before noon, July 1, 1922, the
 claimants have until noon, July l, 1922, in which to do their work. All claims located on and after noon, July 1, 1921, the claimants have until July 1, 1923, in which to do their annual work.
 Claim owners are warned to be very careful in complying with the terms of this law, otherwise they may inadvertently expose their claims to claim jumpers, and thus lose their valuable property rights.
