assembled information regarding farm OPP
portunities in the several states, and will
furnish it to homeseekers free on request.

"We are receiving about 1000 letters
week from persons who wish to engage
in farming" said j. l.. Edwards, manager
of the Agricultural Section of the u. s
Railroad Administration. "The inquiries
come from every state, asking about agri-
cultural advantages in undeveloped terri
tory. We furnish dependable data, and
through our service many investors have
been able to find just what they were
looking for.
Our information is put out in form
of illustrated booklets, by states. sent to
those sufficiently interested to write and
tell us what kind of farm project they
have in mind, and naming the state the
opportunities in which they desire to in
vestigate. Homeseekers can find in the
United States productive land at reason
able prices and on liberal terms, frst-class
markets, excellent transportation facili-
ties, satisfactory climate, and ideal liv-
ing conditions. Now that the war is over,
/ look for revival of farm development
beyond that of any pre-war period" Cor
