Timber claims have become so valuable that tlie woods of Oregon are even now full of land hunters although the trees are dripping with cold rain and the creeks are bank full in all directions. Men and women, and quite frequently women alone, may bo met travel ing through the forests, seeking out claims whose owners are absent, in order to file contests for non-compliance with the home stead laws. These lawa compel the entryman to reside on the homestead, and where the claims are simply taken up for specula tion. Uncle Sam loses no time in ousting itie citizen who remains away from the claim for a period longer than six months. That many of these abandoned claims are found, is proven by the number of contests now being initi ated in the various United States Land Offices of the state. Little cabins, built of rough boards, with the "chinks" between the boards ide enough to shake bands through are not uncommon, and the owner of such a cabin is usually a hundred miles or more away, where it is not so lonesome as it is in the deep and silent Ore gon forest, lhe new comer has good ground for a contest, how ever, and a photagraph of such a cabin, introduced to the land officers has more convincing qualities than a score of affidavits setting forth the honest intentions of the original entryman. When it is known that the tim ber on a given 160 acres is worth as much as 910,000. it can be realized bow eagerly such a claim win re seized by men or women who had hardly hoped to possess the sum of 110,000 in this life. The cost of obtaining title is small in comparison to the ultimate value of the land, and even should the entrymen and his family re side on the place the required five years, they have been amply re paid for their toil and patience in the possession of a valuable borne.
