Certificates were issued for 27,716 acres. Scrip for Building Steamboats, Steamships and Other Vessels - Certificates for 320 acres were issued for building a vessel of at least 50 tons, with 320 acres for each additional 25 tons. Railroad Scrip - Several laws were passed beginning in Generally an amount of land was offered for each mile of rail constructed. The Constitution of 1876 provided 16 sections per mile.

Certificates were issued for various amounts of land for each mile completed. School Land Sale of the school lands began in Until 1905, the price, amount of land available, method of purchase, and eligibility requirements varied greatly. Legislation passed in 1905 required that the school lands be sold through competitive bidding. Purchasers could buy a maximum of 4 sections with residence required in most counties, or 8 sections with no residence required in other designated (western) counties. The End of the Unappropriated Public Domain In Hogue v. Baker, 1898, the Texas Supreme Court declared that there was no more vacant and unappropriated land in Texas. As a result of the decision, a complete audit was ordered by the Legislature. The audit determined that the public school fund was short of the amount of land it should have had by 5,009,478 acres. In 1900 an act was passed "to define the permanent school fund of the State of Texas, to partition the public lands between said fund and the State, and to adjust the account between said fund and said state; to set apart and appropriate to said school fund, the residue of the public domain..." Thus, all of the remaining unappropriated land was set aside by the legislature for the school fund. Pg. 7
