Perhaps you al afford to show "yeHowness' towards big people

But the smaller people arr, the bigger and winter yu ought Ito show

said; "The demand is going to

derstand, most of our farmers
have harvesting machines that

as long as their big combines are

LOAN FARMERS
STATE MONEY
Rate 6 Per Cent State Gains
l, and Farmers 3 Per
Cent Thereby.

AT meeting of the state land
board last week Auditor Taylor
submitted the following resolu-
ton, which was adopted by un-
animous vote:
Resolved that the register of
the land board be instructed to
advertise forthwith the sale of
$250,OO0 worth of school bonds in
accordance with the resolution
heretofore adopted by this board,
said notice of sale to run in at
least two daily newspapers of the
state for period of 30 days, and
provide for sealed bids to be filed
with the register of the board
and to be opened in the presence
Of the board at time to be speci-
fled in said notice, the board to
reserve the right to reject any
and all bids.
What It May Mean.
This is looked upon as the first
definite step in the sale of about
81, 100000 in trust fund bonds to
eastern bonding houses and the
loaning of the money so Sc
cured to the farmers of the
state at the rate of per
cent interest. The land board
is now getting but S per
cent on the bonds, so that this
would mean an increased income
of approximately 100000 from
this source. On the other hand,
farmers who borrow eastern
money pay in interest and com
mission about 8 per cent for their
money. If they could borrow
this $2,000,000 from the state
land board at per cent it would
mean saving to them of approx
imately 100000 a year.
Here are the bonds held by the
land board
