Latest Rules On Homesteads Under Enlarged Act
Helena land office reports new directives from Commissioner I Fred Dennett detailing entry and final proof rules under the enlarged homestead act. Regulations specify that an entryman may maintain residence and cultivation on the original entry while final proof for the added entry follows act compliance, with seven years to prove on the original. Cultivation requirements begin with the second and third years for the added entry, and if part of the added area overlaps the original entry, extra cultivation is required to perfect title. Settlement rights may cover up to about 160 acres of unsurveyed land before designation, with continued residence and cultivation after designation to extend the enlarged area under the act.
