General Land Office was a caller at The Times-New- s office Monday. He stated that he is surprised at the number of people in this part of the country who appar. ently do not know that they are en titled to $50 worth of timber each year from vacant government lands free of charge. In order to procure this timber lawfully it is necessary to notify Mr. Ralph S. Kelley, Chief of the Field Division, boy 1236 Salt Lake City, from what lands the tim ber is to be procured, what kind of timber is wanted; whether fuel wood fence post3; derrick poles or saw tim ber, who Is to use the timber and who is to cut It. It is unlawful to sell of exchange timber which has been removed from vacant government lands. It is unlawful to remove tim lands, the title ber from home-stea- d to which has not passed from the United States. The courts have given the Govern- fent the same property rights as the individual, therefore to purchase tim ber which has been unlawfully re moved from government lands does not give one title thereto. The Government makes no charge for timber but requires strict observance of the laws. To remove timber without observing the laws constitute a trespass and renders the offender liable to action in the United States Courts. Any further Information will be gladly furnished by Mr. Kelley at the address above mentioned.
