Three Year Homestead Act Adopted By Congress and Taft
The 3 year home stead law passed both houses, signed June 6 1912 by President Taft. The act amends sections 2291 and 2297 of the Revised Statutes to require three years residence and cultivation, with conditions for absence, commutation, and final proof. It provides for notices to entrymen, fixed cultivation minimums, and possible extensions for climate illness or other delays. The measure includes provisions for death, heirs, and the return of land to government if residence rules are violated, with final approval noted.
