EX-s0LD|ERS To
DEVELOP FARMS
FOR THEMSELVES
Former Service Men Will Try
an Experiment on $500
Acres of Land Which
They Hope to Purchase.
(By The Associated Press.)

McGrath, Mimi, April 24.-This
thriving town is virtually assured
one OF the most unique farming
projects in the United States as the
result of recent visit here Of
former soldiers students at the
government vocational training
school at Minneapolis, who pro-
pose to purchase tract of $500
acres of land near here to develop
farms for themselves.
The former servicemen, 46 in
number, are more or less disabled
as result of army service, and
have been studying agriculture at
the training school. AS the course
stipulates that they must devote a
certain period to practical appli-
cation of their schooling, 1t was
suggested to the men by Prof. b.
D. Maine of the training school
that they acquire title to farm
lands and pay for 1t wi1i the SAL
ary and expense moneys to which
they are entitled under the provi-
sions of the vocational training
law.
Various parts of the state were
visited in quest of desirable loca-
ton. but none was suitable. Final
ly they visited McGrath. Immedi-
ately they were interested by Ern-
est o. Buehler, president of the
McGrath State bank who has made
it possible for the men to pur-
chase a tract of $500 acres seven
miles north of here.
According to the plan proposed
by Professor Mayne, the students
will purchase the land in one tract
and then apportion it out each
farm being separate. Should the
local tract be chosen it is planned
to house the men in three sets Of
farm buildings now on the tract.
When the tract is finally set
tied and prepared for cultivat tion
it is planned to build a set of COM
munity buildings at a central To-
cation and establish q new town.
The land lies in a rich cutover sec
ton and is said to be adapted for
general farming, especially dairy
ing and poultry raising.
M. j. Thompson Of Duluth, su-
pervisor of the northeast expert
ment station and head of the land
clearing department of the Uni
versity of Minnesota will Coop
crate with the agricultural school
in assisting the men to arrange a
rotation of crops for the new farm
center.
