Homestead Laws.
By Stephen B. Rayburn, Phoenix
Attorney.

On filing an application for public
land. same is carefully checked over by
q competent clerk. and if any defect
appears. same is noted, and the appli-
cant is called upon to amend same.
This is usually done by affidavit. Thirty
days IS the time usually allowed there
tor. and it is important that entryman
comply with the requirements, since
should he fail to so do, his application
will be rejected and closed without fur
ther notice to him.
If the entrymah finds it difficult to
comply with the regulations or does not
fully understand same, he should i'm
mediately write some competent Land
Attorney.
All vacant, unreserved, non-mneral
public lands are subject to entry under
the ordinary homestead laws 16O
acres). Other tracts have been desig-
mated as subject to entry under the en-
larged homestead laws 1920 acres), and
still other tracts have been classified as
being subject to entry under the stock
raising homestead laws (640 acres).
Before filing en- tract of land under
the enlarged or stock-raising home
stead laws. inquiry should be made for
the purpose of ascertaining whether
said land has been so designated. /
Will furnish such data on request. In
case said land is not so designated,
same may be designated on petition.
The Land Office does not furnish such
petitions for designation, but | have a
large supply on hand.
Three years residence Is required of
entryman. This means that actual res
idence must be shown for period of
seven months per year for said period.
Within six months after the date of
allowance of homestead entry. claim
ant must establish residence, or secul e
an extension of time for an additional
period of six months, or the entry will
be subject to contest for abandonment.
The Land Office does not furnish appli-
tions for extension of time. but if entry
man will advise me of his excuse for
not establishing residence, said applica-
tiOn will be prepared and forwarded.
After residence is established if entry
man finds that it is impossible to reside
on the land, he may secure years
leave of absence, provided good ex-
cuse therefor is shown.
No cultivation Is required during the
first year; one-sixteenth of the culti-
vatable area must be cultivated during
the second year, and one-eighth of the
land during the third year, and each
year thereafter until proof. In the
event that the land is too rough for
cultivation, two methods are open to
entrvman. He may either apply for a
reduction of area (which is the method
most commonly employed), or he may
use the land for grazing purposes.
This is applicable to ordinary and ell
larged homesteads.

TURKEY DENIES
FORCES To
SYRIA
No Additional Troops on Bor-
der, as French Accuse,
Leader Says.
By LOUISE BRYANT
Special Correspondent Of international
News Service.

By LOUISE BRYANT
Suecial Correspondent Of International
News Service.
CONSTANTINOPLE, May 5.-Ad-
nan Bey, representative Of the An
CORA government in Constantinople,
today denied the French accusation
that Turkish troops have been con-
centrated on the Syrian frontier.
There are no heavy forces of
Turkish troops massed on the
Syrian border" said Adnan Bey.
1.-THE French are irritated and they
mistake the Encouragement Of small
detachments for fresh concentra-
tionS.'
France holds a mandate for Syria
and is refusing to relinqHish ad-
ministration of the territory to
Turkey. as demanded by the An
CORA government.
Adnan Bey assured International
News Service that reports of a
Bolshevist plot in Constantinople
were unfounded. He took from his
desk two sheets of paper bearing
manifeStos in Turkish script saying
as he did SO:
Two men threw these about the
streets and they were arrested for
1t. That is the sum total of the
communist conspiracy against the
government. It is an isolated case;
not plot. 1t has no relations
with the Moscow soviets whatso-
ever"
1t is evident here that French
and Turkish relations are strained.
ConstantinOple newspapers print ed.
itorials full of bitter comment over
the French attitude toward the
Chester concessions.

derry SILK CO.
IS REPORTED
SOLVENT
Receivers Declare Business of
Concern Is Distinctly
Encouraging"
By HARRY GUsACK.


Washington investors in the D
q. Derry Corporation, manufactur
ers of broad silks, today declared
themselves as highly pleased with
the first report of the receivers OF
the company, filed bfeore Justice
Hand in New York yesterday, de-
Scribing the present condition OF
the concern as solvent and dis
ttnctly encouraging.
The Derry company passed into
the control of George "A. Post,
Joseph M. Proskauer and John P.
Mcguire, as receivers in equity,
on March 26, on an application by
Il. Gerli Company, Inc.,t a creditor
with a claim of $159,015 due on
trade acceptances. Total assets OF
the corporation are estimated at
$16,6I3,6l4, and liabilities at $16,-
314,6I4. The corporation owns silk
mills in New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Virginia and Massachusetts,.
The preliminary survey, accord
ing to the report, indicates that the
corporation has a working capital
OF $7S0,63S, and that this could be
increased to $1,5O0,000 by the sale
of real property and the consolida.
ton of the corporation with the
Cedar Cliff Silk Company, the
stock of which is owned by the
Derry corporation.
Appended to the report is bal
ance sheet which shows that the
fixed assets of the corporation are
the same as shown in statement
prepared prior to the receivership.
1t is explained that present work.
ing capital of $780,66S has been
found by computing the values in
the inventory on the basis of $175
q pound for raw silk and $S.25 for
raw silk in process.
According to the report, the
Cedar Cliff Silk Company has a me-
working capital of 100000 and
owns 81 per cent of the Terra
Realty Company, which owns an
apartment house at West Seven
ty-fifth street and the Croisic build
ing at 200 Fifth avenue. Sale of the
interest in this realty, the report
says, would add $250,000 to the COM
pany's capital. Then the paper
reports:
I'm the period extending from
March 81 to April 80. inclusive,

been in charge of the operation of
the d. G. Derry Corporation, the
gross sales have amounted to ST.
515,3S4, and the advances from fac
tors, which on March 26 stood at
$1,949, 974494, had been reduced on
April 80 to $505,57 by sales of mer-
chandise consigned to and held by
the factors prior to the appoint
ment of the receivers
While a sound business policy
probably dictates the sale or dis
continuance of small number Of
plants, in the opinion of the receiv-
ers the plants as whole are in a
state of good operating efficiency.
and the direct manufacturing cost
compares favorably with that of the
company's competitors, and the
mills are well situated from the
point OF view of labor supply and
other conditions and should be able
to hold their own in competition
with other manufacturers"

IRREGULAR
TREND
Market Dull and Reactionary
In Today's Short
Session.
Copyright. 1923. by Cosmopolitan
NAMA Service

News Service.)
NEW YORK, May 5.-Little
progress was made by the specula.
tive leaders today on the road to
recovery.
1t required but a short period for
the execution of accumulated buy.
ing orders, most of which were for
the active Industrial and steel
stocks. Some short covering was
also in progress in several sections
of the list, especially in the equip.
ments, and this impaired strength
to the market. Before the end OF
the first hour, however, buying
power again vanished and the mar.
ket turned dull and reactionary.
Another cut in Mid-Continent
crude oil prices checked the re.
covery in the oil list, though here
as elsewhere the volume of bust
ness was comparatively small The
Standard Oil and Pan-American Oils
made the best showing with Simms
Petroleum the most prominent In
the low priced sections. Simms
sold above IL on reports that net
operating profits in the first three
months of the year were equivalent
to an annual rate Of $5.S4 per
share. Pan-American sold up to
II for a lead of 3A points above
yesterdays low but subsequently
reacted.
Consolidated Gas was one of the
most active stocks on the board.
Reacting IN points at the opening
in reflection Of the passage of the
81 gas bill, it recovered about a
point in the last period.
Trading dwindled down to an ex-
tremely small volume in the section
hour and market activity was con-
cerned only with a. few of the steel
and industrial leaders. Price changes
were narrow and of little signifi.
canoe, representing little more than
churning around of speculative
stocks by the professionals. Bald
win made a new low at 18TH.
The bond market was firm and
steady, with slight reaction in
foreign government bonds and frac-
tionaI advances in domestic rails
and industrials. Liberty bonds also
reflected the continuance of a good
buying demand. Goodrich Rubber
6H's, Baltimore and Ohio SIS, Katy
new adjustment SIS and Southern
Railway SIS made fractional i'm.
provement in prices, while sugar
and copper bonds continued in
irregular form.

AFTER LONG SEARCH
10Y is FOUND SAFE

SPARTANBURG, S. c., Nov, ;.
Bernas Spurlock, four-year-old boy,
reported kidnapped from his home in
Augusta, Ga, eleven months ago,
has been found by local police. He
was playing in the yard of a wo-
man who told the police man had
brought the boy there and agreed
to pay her one dollar day for his
maintenance.
The boy was taken to Augusta
by his uncle, Henry Mulligan. A
regard of 500 had been offered
by the governor of Georgia for th e
finding of the child, it was said. e.
