Upon completion of the appraisal, the board shall advertise the forfeited land for sale as provided under s. 24.09 and shall state in the notice that the lands have been forfeited and give the names of the former purchasers.
The sale of the forfeited lands shall be made either in the county where the lands lie or at the capitol on a day not less than 3 months nor more than 6 months after the first insertion of the notice. The board shall publish a class 3 notice, under ch. 985 , of the sale giving the time and place where the sale will be held and the county in which the lands being sold are situated, but omitting any description of the lands. The last insertion of the notice shall be at least one week prior to the time the sale is to commence.
