Conservation Commission recommendations to the Commissioners of the Land Office on land purchases for new state parks, 1917-1925.

These bound volumes contain resumes summarizing transactions, recommendations, and appraisals of lands for potential purchase for new state parks. These recommendations were made by the Conservation Commission in conjunction with laws of 1916 and 1917, by which land was acquired "for the use of all the people" through the sale of bonds. The recommendations were submitted to the Commissioners of the Land Office by the Conservation Commission, and upon approval of the recommendations or receipt of approved vouchers, the Comptroller could issue bonds or warrants for payment.
