LAND TITLES III 



while the tillage value may be $ioo an acre if slope and market 

 conditions are right. Generally speaking, however, the highest 

 use for at least 90 per cent of the type is the production of saw 

 logs. 



Land Titles. — Northern Idaho and northwestern Montana are 

 new regions but recently surveyed so that there are few cases in 

 which title cannot be traced directly back to the Federal or 

 State Government. The surveys themselves are for the most 

 part well done because the high quahty of the timber, the poten- 

 tial agricultural value of the soil, and the presence of mineral 

 deposits have all conspired to secure good surveys from the 

 General Land Office.
