The fo'lowing summary of the provision of
the three several Land Laws will be good for
everybody interested in such things to save :
THE HOMESTEAD ACT.
The applicant must be a citizen of the
United States, or take out his fiist papers do
daring his intention to become a citizen. He
must be 21 years old, or the head of a family.
He mayente IGO acres or any subdivision

At the expiration of five years' residence he

land and cultivated it He then gets his
patent (deed) from the I'resuleiif of the
United Stites. Any contract to ctnvey a

Tho Land Olhee fee under this Act upon
making au entry is $ It. Ihe applicant is en
titled to enter lliO acies on any section natur
ally devoitl of timber. It must be the whole
section that is devoid of timber nut the 100
acres alone. Only one tree e'aim can be taken
on a seition. It takes eight years under this
Act to acquire title, but actual residence is
not one of 1 10 rciiu sites in getting it. The
first year tho claimant breaks live acres; tho
second year he cultivates that tivo to crops
ami breaks five more; the third year he p'ants
ihe first live arros 111 trees and cultivates the
second five to crops; tho fourth year ho plants
the secoud live in trues, and then has ten
acres of trees growing, to that he can show,
on the day of final proof;! 6 7.V) liviin; trees.
Tliero is a small fee ou making tiual proof,
but no other expense in securing titles.
llrNKKAI. REM AUKS,
An unmarried woman of age cau tako ad
vantage bf the bonetit of theo Acts the Bame
as a man. If she marries before she has
acquired title, she can proceed to provo up at
the pro cr tune the same as if sue had re
mained single. In case nf tho tie ith of the
claimant before the title is perfected, his heirs
or a Imiuistrit ors may submit final proof
after the heirs have completed the require
ments ot the law. Settlers cut avail tneni-
sihes of the privileges if these laws but once.
Claims aro not transferable before thu title
theieto is acquired. A qualified applicant
mav take a pre imptiou ami n tree cultuie at
the s mie time. As soon its he has proved up
on his pre eniptioii, for instance, he can take
a homestead, and 111 that way can get pos
session of 4 SO ucr8 within a year of liist set
tlement. All the sons and daughters of age
