State Lands in Demand for Homestead Settlements
The land department reports 123 requisitions for homestead lands in the fiscal year ending June 30, totaling over 8,866 acres now held by homesteaders. Land Commissioner Russell notes growing interest in northern state lands while enforcement guards against fraud. Under 1899 law, lands may be bought at 10 cents per acre with a 160 acre limit. settlers must reside, improve, and comply for five years before a deed transfers ownership for life. Some timber-rich areas see squatters seeking to strip trees, but most buyers meet terms and build fine farms.
