We are prepared to make loans on i'm
proved farms, for d Tern Of ten years, with
] interest payable annually. We will give the
! borrower the privilege of making d payment
! of as much as fifth Of the principal at any
time each year, thereby stopping the interest
! on the amount paid. By this method the
borrower is enabled to pay off the full amount
of the loan IN five yeas. The privilege to
pay one-6fth each year is optional with the
borrower He can, if he chooses, keep the
loan for the full time. No extra charge for
this privilege, which enables the farmer to be
out of de6t in five years if he chooses.
! Should the borrower conclude to only pay
, one tenth of his loan each year, he would then
be out of debt at the end of ten years. As
most borrowers pay the agent commission
for their loans, it is very easy to see the ad-
vantage of the above plan. 1t enables the
farmer to save the expenses of making new
loan every three or five years. OUR MORT
CAGES HAVE NO GOLD Clause.
