The Registers and Receivers of the United States Land offices In the states having homestead lands, In eluding Oregon, have received the following Instructions from Fred Den nett, Commissioner of the General Land Office, approved by the Secre tary of the Interior on February 21, last, extending the time for homestead. ers to establish residence upon their lands: "The following instructions are is sued for your guidance in the admin istration of the, act of Congress ap proved February 13, 1911, 'Extend- ' lng the time for certain homestead ers to establish residence upon their lands,' a copy of which is attached hereto. "The first sectloa of the act applies to all homestead entries In the states named made after June 1 1910, and In such cases the entrymen are given un til May 15, 1911, to establish resldenc upon their claims. It also applies to soldiers' declaratsry statements filed In the states named after June 1, 1910, and such declarants areg iven until May 15, 1911, to make their homestead entries and establish their residence on the land. If any pay ment is required to be made in con nection with the entry under the de claratory statement, as in the case of ceded Indian reservations, the act also operates to extend the payment until the entry Is made. "The first proviso to section 1 of the act provides that the period of commutation or of actual residence shall not be shortened. Entrymen who have taken advantage of this exten sion cannot submit commutation proof until they have maintained sub stantially continuous residence for 14 months from the date same was es tabllshed; and In 5-year proof can not claim credit for constructive resi dence for more than six months prior to the date actual residence was es tablished. "Under the second proviso of sec tion 1 the act will not be held to defeat the adverse claim of one who has prior to the approval of this act made entry over a soldiers' declara tory statement where the six months allowed the soldier for making entry and establishing residence has expired prior to February 13, 1911. Nor will It be held to defeat a contest; against a homestead entry filed after the ex piration of six months from date of entry and prior to the passage of this act. "The second section of the act erants a leave of absence, from February 13, lsil, to May 15, 1911. to all home stead entrymen or settlers in the states named In the first section of the act. Entrymen who avail them selves of .this leave of absence can not claim credit for residence during the time they are absent under the leave, such period of absence helmr o simply eliminated from consideration In cases ' of either final or commu tation proofs.''

Slip two hot bricks Into the water. It Is well to have one or two more heating for some one .else to drop Into the water to keep up the steam. Sit down in the ohair . cov ering the body entirely with a blank et after removing all clothing. Let the blanket fall to the floor so that all the steam may be kept in. Sit in the chair as long as the steam rises, then quickly wrap yourself in a hot, dry blanket and instantly get into bed and keep closely covered PURPOSE OF GOVERNMENT. Enterprise, March 23. Editor: ' Ab raham Lincoln once said: "Inasmuch as all good things are produced by labor, it follows that of right all - such things belong to those whose labor has produced them. "But it has so happened in all ages of the world that some have labored aad others have, without labor, en joyed a large" portion, of the fruits. This is wrong and should not con tinue. "To secure each laborer the whole product of his labor is a worthy ob ject of any1 government." Is this the object of our govern ment today t Does it try to secure to the work- ers-the wealth producers-the enjoy- inent of the wealth they, produce? . Or "do others, without labor, en- IJoy. a large portion of the fruits?" IWhat have the old parties done to change this condition? What do they , propose to do "to secure to each la borer the whole product of his labor?" This is the issue that Is vital to your life. 'How to secure for your self and those dear to you more of the good things that labor produces more and better clothes, more wholesome food, more comfortable homes, better conditions In the shops, more leisure time, more education, more culture. The toil of your hands, the work of your brafns have made these thing possible why are they not yours? . More and more the workers of this country, are answering these ques tions. ; We are becoming conscious of our interests as a' class, and we are i organizing to further our Common Cause. j Our organization demands for the workers the full social equivalent of what they produce. If you agree with Lincoln that this Is a worthy object, then Investigate our organization In order to help us attain it. If you are one of those who deny the Justice of this demand, then you should investigate this organization in order to be better fitted to com bat it. For this movement can no longer be ignored. It Is growing too strong and pow erful. It is sweeping the world. .Within the past year we have car ried Milwaukee. We are now in ab solute control of that city and we are about to capture hundreds of others. We have elected a score of leiris iators In different states, have sent cur first Representative to Congress, and for the first time in the history of the United States these demands of an organized working class will be voiced In the Capitol Halls. In Germany. France. England. Aus- ti'a-Jn every civilized country this political organization of the worklne cla-iit is making a similar growth. We are now fifty million strong. We cast ten million votes. Every hour adds to our growing strength and power. Thousands of leaflets are being dis tributed. Hundreds of papers are de livered . dally. Meetings are held every week. If you think us right, be roan enough 13 stand up and be counted, and hr-lp us reach the others with our message. If you think us wrong, remember that you have us to meet. To do o effectively, you must understand our philosophy. The easiest way "to learn of our philosophy Is through the Socialist pi ess.
