Title Is giv en to-tho soldier, and, from t he bonus monoy of $3,000 twonty per cent will bo paid tho owner of tho land, batanco of paymohts on anituiortl satlon plan Idontlcal with the plan employed by tbo Btato nndor tho bonus law. "'After twonty por cent Is paid on tbe.land from tho $3,000 bonus, tbore will be'loft $3,200.

An effort' will bo mada to placo tho soldier In tho section to which ho Is suited. "The Idea of this plan Is to tako raro of Koldlorn who wlnh to get on tho land, but who havono funds with which lo make a first payment. Un der this plan both tho ownor and the eoldler aro proloctod. Thoro are largo areas of land In the State await- Ing sottloment, and there aro many noldlors entitled to the bouus who are anxious to get on the soil.

"NVTion It Is Bbnernlly known that ex-soldiers who aro without funds or property can buy land un der this plan, I bollovo that a higher percentage of the boys will call for tho loan ruthor than tho cash .undor the bonus." - SIX BANDITS HOLD UP BANK AND ES- CAPE WITH $12,000 ALTONA, HI., Not.
