when they can get time only from
this class of dealers? Is it not time
this condition of affairs should be
remedied? It must be done, or the
people will soon be bankrupt and the
farms in the hands of the few who
will dodge the paying of their taxes.
The General Assembly can do the
people at large no greater service
than to make the legal rate of inter
est sufficiently high, say 8 per cent,
to induce capitalists to come this
way. It's agricultural and its edu-
cational interests demand it. The
difference between even twenty-five
per cent and the three hundred paid
by the time purchaser would enable
him to educate his children, and he
would do it without the stigma of
compulsory laws. 81. @. D.

The pamphlet "Stassfurt Indus
try" just published, contains an in
teresting description of the famuos
potash mines in Germany, from
which all the potash imported into
this country and used for manuring
is derived. The chapter about the
use of potash in agriculture as one
of the important ingredients of a
complete fertilizer, adds largely to
the value of the book, and among the
many fine illustrations those showing
the experiments at Southern Pines,

practical farmers. Copies of this

A Change in the Interest Law
Demanded.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:

I want to add just a few thoughts
to Harry Farmers article on the
legal rate of interest of this State
and how it affects her citizens, her
agricultural interests and all others
as we'll, for upon agriculture every
other industry largely depends for
existence. At the present rate,
money cannot be had. Banks do not
loan but discount only gilt-edge pa
per, but not at six per cent per an
mum. Capitalists seek a more lucra-
tive feidfor the employment of their
cash, or rather the very best market
for it, just as sensible farmers do in
the sale of their products.
The next, and not the least hurtful
result, is the little fellow with only
a limited amount of cash who invests
it in a Cheap John stock of goods
and displays his sign for time Gus
toners. Now if you have this little
shark in your community, there is
no use in commenting on his ways.
If not, thank and praise God for so
great a deliverance. It is not always
the indolent and improvident who
have to buy supplies on time, but
frequently the best people in a COM
munity. Otherwise the time seller
would have been a thing of the past.
Hence you see the poor fellow with
wife and children whose misfortune
it is to be without a s~uffciency of
supplies, whatever may have been the
cause, is driven into the mouth of
this serpent, soon to be released
without lands or chattels, whereas
if he could have gotten the loan of
some cash for even a high rate of
interest, say Is per cent, the provi-
dent man would have saved his home,
been a blessing to his country, a COM
forter in his family.
Harry Farmer stated as accurately
as possible the percentage above cash
prices for time this poor fellow has
to pay, say from so to 100 per cent,
but did not state that this was for
only about ST. months; so up goes
his per cent per annum from so to
100 to from 100 to 200. Nor is this
all. He is at the mercy (if such
there be) of this monopolist who die
tates the quality as well as prices
and thereby compels the man to feed
his family on a low grade of impure
and unhealthy food. Here is pay
day. Of course the fellow can't pay,
none other than his lord can buy his
produce; so it goes at his own op-
ton, and being insufficient, his home
is next, which goesSnr less than half
its real value. So Ee goes another
100 per cent, making the enormous
total of from 200 to 300 per cent.
Is it strange so many people are

Do Not Change the Interest Law.

profit and by their timely advice they
have to a great extent gained the
confidence of the farmers. But /
shall have to differ with them when
they advocate a higher rate of inter
est. Their only argument is that the
bankers and the money-lenders avade
the present law and charge more.
Our Legislators are to blame for this
to some extent. The farmers are not
to blame if the money-lenders wish
to violate the law of their State and
charge ]extortionate rates. Some men
r necessarily bound to borrow at
any price other men who are in good
standing generally borrow at a low
rate. Years ago / have known men
in my county to pay twenty-five and
SO 1-3 per cent for money. Thous-
ands of men lost their homes under
that system, and are to-day living as
tenants, or working at some other
trade.
It was the farmers that forced the
present interest law in our State,
and politicians in all the political
parties were anxious to father the
law. If it was good for the farmers
then, it is good now. The argument
of the money-lenders then was that
it would force the money from the
State. Such has not been the case
no scarcity of money since. The
business men borrow more money
than the farmers do. If he pays
sixty dollars on the thousand he adds
this to his profits and the consumer
has it to pay. If n hundred on
the thousand, the consumer has it
to pay. Hence, the more interest.
the higher the time or cash price
refuting the argument of u high
rate friends that are so afraid that
our Legislators won't take care of
the money-changers.
At ten per cent, money will double
In seven years. What other Iegiti-
mate business will do as much?
There are very few farms that paw
ten per cent annually above
cost of living, etc. If they do this,
the taxable property would double in
ten years. In some sections of our
State farm lands are lower than ten
years ago-some parts of Wake
County, for instance. The Southern
States have a higher rate of interest
as a rule than Northern States; the
farmers of the north are more pros
porous. This proves again that a
high rate is not best for the farmer,
One thousand at 6 per cent is II
cents a day; at 10 per cent, it is %
cents per day. Are the farmers
and business men of the State ready
to make a change? I think not. I
have borrowed many hundreds; have
never paid above the legal rate. NV
advice to my brother farmers: put
yourselves in a condition that you
can borrow at legal rates or do not
borrow at all. Advice to our law
makers: when you are ready to Use
the present rate, please consider that
he that has money to lend can live
anyhow, while he that has to borrow
