Does it pay to pay rent? Wouldn't you rather live under your own rooftree? We can sell you an acre lot at Hillside Dairy Farm. That'll give you plenty of ground for a cosy cottage. a fine lot of vegetables and chickens. How do you like that recipe for reducing the high cost of living? Ten or fifteen dollars will start one of our splendid contracts. Less than that each month for a while and the lot is yours.
