Lad To Eastern Farm Renters. Why pay rent year after year and have nofaym when you get through? The landlord has your money and the farm at the end of the year. Why not go to South Dakota and buy a good farm with the money that you now pay for rent? You can get new, rich land near good towns on the Chi- cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway, on easy terms, say from $5.00 to £10.00 per acre. Buy now and get a share of this year’s crop.
