Chairman’s Letter
Dear Shareholder,
During the fiscal half-year ended February 28, 2007, money market fund yields remained attractive—both on an absolute basis and relative to fixed income alternatives—as the Federal Reserve Board kept interest rates steady.
All of the Vanguard Money Market Funds outperformed their peer-group averages for the fiscal period, with total returns ranging from 2.4% for the Treasury Money Market Fund to 2.6% for the Prime Money Market Fund. The share price of each fund remained $1, as is expected but not guaranteed.
Over six-months’ time, the relationship between a fund’s annualized yield and total return can be obscure. To provide a better sense of the relationship, the table on page 1 shows returns for the funds and their peers over not just the past six months but the last 12 months, too. Again for the past year, the funds’ returns outpaced the average returns of their peers.
The Fed held firm on rates, prompting a bond rally
The Federal Reserve held its target for the federal funds rate at 5.25% throughout the fiscal period. Treasury bond markets responded with improved prices and declining yields across the maturity spectrum, affirming the Fed’s view that inflation was under control.
2
The exception to falling yields was at the shortest end of the maturity range, where the yield of 3-month Treasuries increased. The result was a more steeply inverted yield curve. In this environment, longer-term securities outperformed shorter-term issues. Corporate bonds generally outperformed municipal issues.
Steady climb in U.S. stocks was interrupted late in February
U.S. stocks climbed at such a healthy pace during the six months that they produced robust gains despite a sharp pullback at the end. Strong profit growth, solid consumer spending, and restrained inflation buoyed returns for most of the period. The last few days of February saw a sudden reversal in the market, as investors reacted to turmoil in Chinese markets, signs of slower growth in gross domestic product, and news that manufacturing orders fell steeply in January.
Barely more than a percentage point separated six-month gains for large-capitalization and small-cap stocks. Across market capitalizations, the performance of growth-oriented stocks trailed that of value-oriented stocks. International and emerging markets continued to hold an edge over returns in U.S. markets. Returns for U.S. investors were boosted by a weakened dollar.
Yields of money markets remained attractive

among the fixed income market’s bright spots during the past six months. The yields of the Vanguard Money Market Funds started the period around 5%—well above inflation—and remained there through February. This stability reflected the Fed’s decision to leave its target for short-term interest rates unchanged during that time. The Fed’s governing board said after its January meeting that its steady-as-she-goes policy was most likely to lead to “sustainable” growth in the economy while keeping inflation in check.
The table below shows the SEC seven-day yields for the four funds. They ranged from 4.83% for the Treasury Money Market Fund to 5.25% for the Institutional Shares of the Prime Money Market Fund. These yields largely reflected the different levels of risk and expected return inherent in the types of securities each fund holds.
During the past six months, Vanguard Fixed Income Group, the funds’ advisor, nudged the Prime and Federal Money Market Funds’ average maturities toward the midpoint of their typical range, reasoning that this positioning provided the best balance of yield and portfolio management flexibility during a period of stable interest rates. In the Treasury and Admiral Treasury funds, the advisor responded to the unusual dynamics of short-term Treasury bill rates with modest shifts in the portfolios’ average maturities.
At Vanguard, we are steadfast in our belief that low costs carry the day. This is especially true for money market funds. All four Vanguard Money Market Funds maintained a significant cost advantage over their peers, thus leaving a larger share of their rewards in your pocket.

Stay focused on the role of money market funds
Vanguard’s low-cost, high-quality money market funds have shone over the last six months or so, providing stability of principal for your cash reserves and an opportunity to stay ahead of inflation. Yet, it’s important to remember that whether interest rates are going up or down, and whatever their current yields or returns, money market funds are designed primarily for short-term saving, not long-term investing.
Prudent investors seek to diversify both among and within asset classes, by allocating their resources not only to money market funds but also to broadly based domestic and international stock and bond funds. Historically, these asset classes in concert have provided the sort of returns that are most likely to help you achieve investing success over the long run and reach your financial goals.
Thank you for entrusting your assets to Vanguard.
Sincerely,
John J. Brennan
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Advisor’s Report
During the six months ended February 28, 2007, the Vanguard Money Market Funds benefited from the relatively high yields among short-term securities. Six-month returns ranged from 2.4% for the Treasury Money Market Fund to 2.6% for the Prime Money Market Fund.
Investment environment
Although inflation measures remained elevated, the Federal Reserve suspended its series of interest rate increases in favor of allowing the lagged effect of past rate hikes to filter through the economy. This new course, which had its dissenters, was based on economic models projecting that inflation pressures would decline without further intervention by the Fed.
Weakness in interest-rate-sensitive sectors of the economy, particularly housing and autos, exceeded expectations in the second half of 2006, raising some doubt that the Fed’s soft-landing scenario would come to pass. The market quickly shifted gears, reversing the outlook for steady interest rates, and began to prepare for the possibility of eventual “easing” by the Fed in the form of lower short-term rates.
Better-than-anticipated holiday sales, combined with a warm-weather boost in the housing market, gave investors an opportunity to reconsider in early 2007, temporarily reversing the downward trend in interest rates.
Although the outlook remained uncertain at the end of the fiscal six months, expectations of Fed easing were again beginning to filter through the market as concerns about delinquencies in the subprime mortgage market took center stage. The headlines were painting a grim picture, but barring exogenous shocks to the financial marketplace, we expect the housing market to stabilize by the end of 2007.
The management of the funds
In the Prime Money Market Fund, we kept our average maturity in the bearish band early in the period, allowing the assets to turn over more frequently so that the fund could take advantage of rising interest rates. When it became clear that the Fed was comfortable leaving the federal funds target rate at 5.25%, we moved the fund’s average weighted maturity back into the neutral band. Our view was, and remains, that the Fed is unlikely to modify the present course of monetary policy in the foreseeable future. Throughout the fiscal half-year, we focused our investments on the 1- to 3-month maturity range.
The Federal Money Market Fund primarily invests in agency discount notes, which are issued by government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs). Supply has stabilized as issuance has moderated. These securities trade at yields below the federal funds target, so we work to add value by investing a large portion of the
6
fund’s assets in overnight repurchase agreements, which track the fed funds rate more closely.
The Admiral and Treasury Money Market Funds periodically moved between our neutral and bullish ranges during the half-year because of the unique nature of the Treasury bill curve, which is frequently at odds with other money market yield curves. Volatility in the Treasury bill curve results primarily from seasonal fluctuations in the Treasury’s financing requirements. Upside surprises in tax receipts can contribute to frequent changes in the Treasury’s financing needs, leading to periodic bouts of reduced issuance.
As always, the Vanguard Money Market Funds’ low expense ratios helped us to maximize the shareholder benefits of these portfolio management strategies. During the six-month period, all four of the funds topped the average returns of their peer groups.

Notes to Financial Statements
Vanguard Prime Money Market Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in short-term debt instruments of companies primarily operating in specific industries, particularly financial services; the issuers’ abilities to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in such industries.
The fund offers two classes of shares, Investor Shares and Institutional Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Institutional Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative and servicing criteria and invest a minimum of $5 million.
23
Prime Money Market Fund
A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.
1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
2. Repurchase Agreements: The fund may invest in repurchase agreements. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal; however, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
4. Distributions: Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month.
5. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.
Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.
B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, shareholder accounting, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At February 28, 2007, the fund had contributed capital of $7,701,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 7.70% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.
C. In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return positions in financial statements. FIN 48 will be effective for the fund’s fiscal year beginning September 1, 2007. Management is in the process of analyzing the fund’s tax positions for purposes of implementing FIN 48; based on the analysis completed to date, management does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will result in any material impact to the fund’s financial statements.

Performance Summary
Investment returns will fluctuate. All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (For performance data current to the most recent month-end, which may be higher or lower than that cited, visit our website at www.vanguard.com.) The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. The annualized yields shown reflect the current earnings of the fund more closely than do the average annual returns.

Federal Money Market Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
Vanguard Federal Money Market Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in short-term debt instruments issued by the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities, and repurchase agreements collateralized by such instruments.
A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.
1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
2. Repurchase Agreements: The fund may invest in repurchase agreements. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal; however, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
4. Distributions: Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month.
5. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.
B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, shareholder accounting, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At February 28, 2007, the fund had contributed capital of $633,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.63% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.
C. In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return positions in financial statements. FIN 48 will be effective for the fund’s fiscal year beginning September 1, 2007. Management is in the process of analyzing the fund’s tax positions for purposes of implementing FIN 48; based on the analysis completed to date, management does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will result in any material impact to the fund’s financial statements.

Performance Summary
Investment returns will fluctuate. All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (For performance data current to the most recent month-end, which may be higher or lower than that cited, visit our website at www.vanguard.com.) The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. The annualized yields shown reflect the current earnings of the fund more closely than do the average annual returns.

Treasury Money Market Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
Vanguard Treasury Money Market Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in short-term debt instruments backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.
A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.
1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
3. Distributions: Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month.
4. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.
B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At February 28, 2007, the fund had contributed capital of $499,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.50% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.
C. In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return positions in financial statements. FIN 48 will be effective for the fund’s fiscal year beginning September 1, 2007. Management is in the process of analyzing the fund’s tax positions for purposes of implementing FIN 48; based on the analysis completed to date, management does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will result in any material impact to the fund’s financial statements.

Performance Summary
Investment returns will fluctuate. All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (For performance data current to the most recent month-end, which may be higher or lower than that cited, visit our website at www.vanguard.com.) The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. The annualized yields shown reflect the current earnings of the fund more closely than do the average annual returns.

About Your Fund’s Expenses
As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.
A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The table on page 50 illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:
• Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.
To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period.”
• Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
Note that the expenses shown in the table on page 50 are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs or account maintenance fees. They do not include your fund’s low-balance fee, which is described in the prospectus (the fee does not apply to the Prime Money Market Fund’s Institutional Shares). If this fee were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not charge transaction fees, such as purchase or redemption fees, nor does it carry a “sales load.”
The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.
You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the appropriate fund prospectus.

1 The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the Prime Money Market Fund, 0.26% for Investor Shares and 0.09% for Institutional Shares; for the Federal Money Market Fund, 0.26%; for the Treasury Money Market Fund, 0.26%; for the Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund, 0.11%. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period.

Glossary
Average Quality. An indicator of credit risk, this figure is the average of the ratings assigned to a fund’s fixed income holdings by credit-rating agencies. The agencies make their judgment after appraising an issuer’s ability to meet its obligations. Quality is graded on a scale, with Aaa or AAA indicating the most creditworthy bond issuers. U.S. Treasury securities are considered to have the highest credit quality.
Average Weighted Maturity. The average length of time until fixed income securities held by a fund reach maturity and are repaid. The figure reflects the proportion of fund assets represented by each security.
Expense Ratio. The percentage of a fund’s average net assets used to pay its annual administrative and advisory expenses. These expenses directly reduce returns to investors.
Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.
Yield. A snapshot of a fund’s interest income. The yield is expressed as a percentage of the fund’s net asset value. For money market funds, yield is based on income earned over the past seven days and is annualized, or projected forward for the coming year.
51
The People Who Govern Your Fund
The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.
A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals.
Our independent board members bring distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service to their task of working with Vanguard officers to establish the policies and oversee the activities of the funds. Among board members’ responsibilities are selecting investment advisors for the funds; monitoring fund operations, performance, and costs; reviewing contracts; nominating and selecting new trustees/directors; and electing Vanguard officers.
Each trustee serves a fund until its termination; or until the trustee’s retirement, resignation, or death; or otherwise as specified in the fund’s organizational documents. Any trustee may be removed at a shareholders’ meeting by a vote representing two-thirds of the net asset value of all shares of the fund together with shares of other Vanguard funds organized within the same trust. The table on these two pages shows information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. The mailing address of the trustees and officers is P.O. Box 876, Valley Forge, PA 19482.
