ilar action is being taken in other
valley counties where people from
this area might be interested m
locating.
Any farms for sale should be
listed at the county agent's of
fice in the various valley coun
ties and special blanks have
been prepared for this purpose.
It is not necessary to call per
sonally at this office to secure
a blank or to supply informa
tion on farms for sale. A tele
phone call or postcard will serve
the purpose, W. C. Leth, Polk
county agent, said.
The blanks available provide for
supplying certain information of
interest to prospective purchasers
By looking through the lists of
farms it will be possible from the
information supplied to find suit
able types of farms and conse
quently save considerable travel
and expense on the part of the
prospective buyers.
In other words a farmer inter
ested in a dairy farm will be giv
en access to the dairy farms listed
in the various counties and by
process of visitation and elimina
tion a suitable one may be more
readily located.
Provision is made on the blanks
for listing such information as
major source of farm income, per
manent or perennial plantings
such as orchards, berries, alfalfa
or grasses; soil type, drainage, im
provements, and other necessary
buildings.
The amount of the 1941 taxes
on both real estate and personal
property, the approximate price
acceptable, minimum down pay
ment or rent , acceptable will
be included. The location of the
farm, the services available such
as school, mail or paper routes,
and distances from churches,
and towns are important.
It is definitely stated on the
blank, according to Leth, .that
"This is not a contract and will be
used only as confidential informa
tion in assisting farmers of the
proposed Polk-Benton cantonment
area to locate suitable farms."
