In other words, lis Interest Is the bring ing together of (he land and Hume who would mako new homes upon Hie laud. I'or thnt reason expert agents of this liurentl Investigate thoroughly all land that Is' offered for snip nnd all land agents. These experts satisfy themselves that the land Is suitable for farming', that the climatic condi tions iire right and that . the price at which It Is offered Is reasonable; next they satisfy themselves that the bind agent Is honest and reliable. There Is no need to fool men In order to get them to settle In the West the trtith Is sti g enough. .. Ads Carried in Eastern 'Papers. A. very extensive advertising cam paign in Hie Kaslern states, the Southern states und the Stales of the Mississippi Valley enables .nls Bu reau to get in touch with those who wnnts facts iil.mil thr; West, and as soon as Its represec.nillves learn what section of the ctintry most ap peals to the prospect he. Is turned over to the Wtistw.irthy land agents operating In Hint section. These laud agi nts take up the unrk ' from there on and the records of the Bureau show that the work has been most successful. During the last year the advertising by the Vnlon Pacific System reached a circulation of more than five million readers n -month. There wore received nearly ten thousand iiifpili-ies and there are records of 2.4S2 carloads of household goods moved Into nnd Hirough the various states listed above, during six months of this per iod. This does not Include those who came Into' the West without shipping their household goods, and Hiere are many who s!l out all such property before moving.
