This document, "Rules and Regulations for the Sale and Removal of Water-killed and Windfall Timber on Chippewa Indian Ceded 'pine' Lands, Minnesota," provides detailed regulations governing the sale and removal of timber damaged by water or wind on lands ceded by the Chippewa (Ojibwe) Indians in Minnesota. Issued by the United States General Land Office, it outlines the procedures, restrictions, and requirements for logging operations on these specific territories. The document is a valuable resource for understanding the historical context of natural resource management, government policies related to Native American lands, and the legal framework governing timber harvesting in the early 20th century. It offers insights into the complex relationship between federal agencies, Native American tribes, and the exploitation of natural resources. This historical document will be of interest to researchers, historians, and anyone studying environmental law, Native American history, or the timber industry.
