S. Commissioner and one of those before whom a large pro- portion of homestead proofs are being made at the present time, publishes the following article on the good show- ing being made in the matter of culti- vation and improvements in the west side of the Judith Basin, particularly the Arrow Creek Bench by the home- steaders who are made under the new three-year law: use character of the final proofs being made by homesteaders on the West Side under the three-year law is perhaps the most convincing argument that could be advanced in exploiting the superior qualities of the Judith character of the improvements. While the homestead - shack - has not disap- peared, final proofs more freqaently show the entryman to be us mg in comfortable two, three. four and up to seven -room houses, with their prem- ises liberally !colleted with grant rum and all manner of outbuildings. \Iwo homesteaders who made proof before the local commissioner last week in itemizing their improvements men- tioned a garage and the World ten- tures to say that there are very low documents on tile in the land office at Washington, showing where home- steadets owned an before making proof on their entries. The gentlemen referred, to are Jimmie Johnson and G. M. Smith of Denton, but they are not the only homesteaders on the West Side owning automobiles. There are about twenty such instances in the Denton and Arrow Creek countries. \Generalizing it is the emphatic belief of the World, that the entrynien of the kVest Side are evidencing the and making the best final proofs that were ever offered at any period in the public land area of the United States. This is a rather sweeping statement, but Basin soil. There actually is not one statistics will bear it out.\ proof in a hundred but what shows that the entry - man has placed every acre under cultivation he could, not as a means of making his land more valu- ale in the eyes of a prospective pur- chaser, but because the crops harvest- ed from his cultivated acreage brings him such rich returns. greatest amount of good faith Another Business house A meat market is soon to be opened in Geyser.
