The atlanta Consultation saysthat there
are thirty million dollars worth II the
farming lands OF Georgia under mort
gage, and that the farmers are paying
rate Of interest on these mortgages OF
from 5 to20 per cent. per annum. A large
nar Cent. of the farms in South Carolina
are under mortgages also, and paying an
equally heavy rate OF interest. This is
why there is 40 money il farming. The
rate Of interest to the farmer is too high
in every system of credit open to him.
