IjAiia The following paragraphs show action taken by Secretary Lane dur ing the past few weeks In designat ing public lands under the enlarged homestead act and In restoring with drawn lands. Additional Informa tion may be obtained by those Inter ested from the United States Geolog ical Survey or from the proper local land office. Enlarged llranetead DelgiuM Ions Secretary Lane recently designat ed under this act nearly 300,000 ac res In California. This action was requested by thirty-five residents of the localities affected. The lands designated are quite widely distrib uted over the more arid portions of the state. A designation under the enlarged homestead act, recently approved by Secretary Lane, Increases the area open under this law in Oregon by 284,000 acres. The lands affected by this order are In large part locat ed in the Deschutes and John Day river basins, although there are scat tered areas In other portions of the state. Ilentoratloii from Withdrawn.! Secretary Lane has recommended to the president the restoration of 129,601 acres of withdrawn land in Montana. 47,063 acres of the land Is in the ceded portion of the Crow Indian reservation and was examin ed last year by the Geological Sur vey and has been classified as coal land at prices ranging from 20 to 1118 per acre. The coal, which is of the subbltumlnous variety, occurs In numerous beds from 14 feet to 15 feet in thickness. The remainder, which comprises over 82,500 acres of noncoal lands in widely separated parts of the state, has been examin ed by the Field Service of the Gen eral Land Office. Secretary Lane has recommended to the president the restoration of over 43,000 acres In western Wyom ing. These lands were withdrawn in 1906 because numerous reports of coal and early geological mapping in dicated that the coals mined at Kem merer, Evanston, and other points in the southwestern part of the state might be present here. The Geolog ical Survey baa examined some of the region in a preliminary way, and has found that a large part of the withdrawn area contains no valua ble deposits of coal. The restoration of these lands reduces the area in cluded in coal withdrawal In Wyom ing to less than three million acres. 290,000 acres of lands in Glenrock Big Muddy coal field In eastern Wy oming have been restored to entry by the president on the recommenda tion of Secrary Lane. In pursu ance of its announced policy of clas sifying withdrawn areas as rapidly as possible the Department through the Geological Survey, examined this area during the summer of 1913. As result of this examination 30,000 acres have been determined to con tain coal and are restored to enrty nder the coal land laws at prices fixed In accordance with the quality and quantity of the coal present. The surface of these lands may be acquir ed under the agricultural land laws with a reservation of the mineral ngnts to tne. government. Tne re maining lands Included in the order, amounting to over a quarter of a million acres, have been classified as noncoal and are restored to general entry without restriction. 50,000 acres of lands in Utah, which heretofore have been included in coal land withdrawals, have been restored to entry by the president on the recommendation of Secretary Lane, following the classification of these lands by the Geological Sur vey. As a result of this classifica tion, 15,000 acres have been determ ined to contain no coal while about 33,500 acres have been determined to contain valuable coal deposits. These lands lie chiefly In the Book Cliffs field, while a smaller area lies farther south in the Colob field. The noncoal lands may be obtained under the nonmlneral land lawa without re striction, while the areas that con tain coal are purchasable under the coal land laws or their surface may be acquired under the agricultural land laws. The president, on the recommend ation of Secretary Lane, has just ap proved an order restoring to entry over 250,000 acres of lands hereto fore withdrawn in the Ekalaka coal field of eastern Montana. This res toratlon follows a classification of these withdrawn lands by the U. S Geological Survey. As a result of this classification over 210,000 acres were determined to contain no coal and are, therefore, restored as non coal lands, while slightly less than 43,000 acres are classified as coal lands and are priced in accordance with departmental regulations. The noncoal lands are available for entry under all of the nonmlneral land laws while the coal lands may be purchased at the classilied prices un der the coal land law or entry may be made under the homestead and related laws with the reservation of the mineral rights to the govern ment. 53,000 acres of withdrawn land in northwestern Idaho have been restor ed to entry by the president, on the recommendation of Secretary Lane. The land was withdrawn in 1910, be cause numerous reports from various sources indicated that deposits of lig nite might be found here on Clear water river and Oroflno creek. Gov ernment geologists who had made examinations in this region In 1910 for other purposes reported incident ally that there were indications of the presence of lignite and many lat er reports were received from other sources that valuable deposits exist ed. Last summer a member of the Geological Survey visited the area and found that the lignite here is of little extent and of no commercial value. The withdrawn land has been classified as noncoal and the erasure of the withdrawal by the president restores the land to all forms of non mlneral entry as before the withdrawal. ADYENTUKKS IN THE NEWSPAPER JAMK A New Series of Article Written for The Herald by the Ex-reporter Number One The Ilaby Scoop At the age of sixteen, I had about used up all the nine lives which all cats and kids are said to possess, so that after being laid up with a brok en rib, for a couple of months, my father decided if he wanted to have any son left, the only way to keep him would be to put him to work during the summer vacation, where he would be out of mischief. Thus it was that on one bright summer morning, I found myself lo cated in the snug berth of cabin boy aboard the 60 foot steam yacht, "Sweet Marie", Howard, master. That noon the captain's gig came alongside with Captain Howard and a stranger In it, who I learned later was Bill Stearns, considered the greatest marine reporter In the coun try (of course I am faking all nam M). He cruised around with us for two weeks and during that time seemed to take a groat liking to me, so that when he left us at a little town upon the Maine coast, he made me prom ise to come and see him the next time I was in the Big City. About a month later while at an chor at the Big City I heard a cou ple of deck hands talking about the races for an important honor that were to take place the next day. From what I overheard I learned that the captain of the "Mermaid", which was expected to win, had been bought to lose the race to her com petitor the "Merman", the odds be ing six to one. I immediately notified Bill Stearns who wrote the story and looked up the proof. You can imagine the else of my head when I got a letter of congrat ulation from the editor of a well known press association with a check for 147.50 enclosed, as my share of the profits.

FOUND AND TAKEN UP I have taken up, at my place In Alliance, Nebraska, the following head of stock: 1 bay two year old colt. Shire bred. 1 three year old colt. Shire bred. 1 light bay mare with light mane and tall. 1 gray mare with foretop clipped. 1 bay saddle mare. Looks like an Indian pony. 1 dark bay mare. 1 bay horse with foretop clipped. 1 brown horse with foretop clip ped and three wire scratches across breast. George WasMn O. W. was once a surveyor. John P. Hazard is a surveyor. J. P. also sometimes tells the truth. In the pioneer days he told the people that the southeast corner of Box Butte coun ty was at a point locally known as "badger hole." In 1898, some other surveyors and lawyers made the court believe said corner was located in a "pocket" about three-fourths of a mile away and it was ko ordered. The government surveyors, after making a thorough examination and re-tracing of the old lines, have re-located said corner at the same old "badger hole" and say they have no doubt about its being correct. This is an advertisement and the point is, if you have a surveying problem with a knot in it better send for the old "ex" (and candidate for) county surveyor J. P.
