Does not the money-lender exact
from the farmer from ten to one hundred |
and twenty per cent per year on money
loaned. while the merchants of the cities
can borrow all lie wants of the banks at
eight per cent; the speculator Of Wall
street at four per cent; and the COVER
,nent at two and a half per cent:
This is sample OF Ignaeius Donnelly's
financial teachings. The farmer who
has good security to offer. paws not a
cent more Of interest than the merchants
do. In fact he can borrow now at ore
per cent less in this county and can get
money much more readily. The best
loans on the market and the ones most
sought after are on farm mortgages
