A Farm in the Western Territories

Many settlers, especially those relocating from the Eastern Borderlands, settled in villages. For farmers, migration to the west often brought higher standards of living and a change of farming methods, as Bronisława Guzy recalled: "Here each farmer had their own motorized thresher. It was the difference between heaven and earth, compared to what we had there." From: Oral History Annual, vol. 1, 2011, p. 185.
