If the United States government is
going to give a farm to those veterans
of the late war, who desire to become,
farmers, as a part Of the bonus
plan, there IS absolutely no
reason why the plan should
be used solely for the. develop
ment of the west There are several
thousand vacant farms in Vermont
and several hundred thousand In the
states east of the Mississippi. A larger
OF them can be bought for
loss money than 1t takes TO develop a
farm from wild land of the west that
has never been titled Eastern mem
