A “laboratory” project in land- | owning, reforestation, and the | transfer of farmers from poor acres | to good soil is under way in Indiana through the Resettlement | Administration of the U. S. Depart | ment of Agriculture. Today. Irwin Morris, community manager for the RA's Wabash | Farms, reported the beginning of resettling of families from soil- | eroded land in Martin County to good acreage in Knox, Sullivan and Daviess Counties. Frames for nine house units have ik a been constructed in Knox County |

The remainder will need help. 4 3 “Farmsteads will be improved by N charges of any kind, the RA and the homesteaders will | ; i be enabled to retire their mortgages on a 40-year, 3 per cent plan,” he added. “In this venture,” he explained, | “the RA is seeking only to guide | the natural shift of population. In | good tines families are able to | move to better farms of their own accord. The trouble is that in such | sections as Martin County, many | now are not financially able to make the shift unaided.” While the displaced Martin | County farmers are the first con- | sideration in the trio of counties to be settled, Mr, Morris said the project also is to serve as an experiment on finding the best means of helping the average tenant to become a land owner. ho Aaa BRT a i .
