The various counties of this state are hereby empowered to take advantage of the act of Congress of March 20, 1922, (42 U.S. Stat., 465) and acts amendatory thereto, relating to the consolidation of national forests, and for that purpose the board of county commissioners of any county shall have authority to sell or otherwise dispose of lands acquired by such county through tax sale proceedings located within the boundaries of any forest or within five miles of the boundaries of any national forest which are chiefly valuable for national forest purposes, to the United States Government, at private sale at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the said board of county commissioners may deem advisable and to the best interests of the county.
Before any such sale or transfer is effected, notice of such contemplated sale or transfer shall be given as required by the said acts of Congress and such notice shall be in lieu of any notice required by the laws of this state relating to the sale of such lands.
