CHEAPER MONET FOR THE
FARMER

1t looks as though the farming
interests OF this country were de-
ta,nined to secure some relief from
high rates Of interest. Information
regarding European methods OF FUR
nishing capital with which to do
business ON the farm Is reaching
the farmers ears as never before,
and they are beginning to ask ques-
tions which will lead to better
money sources than has been avail
able heretofore. The 1890 census
shows that western farmers in par
ticular are paying an enormous
rate Of interest-in Washington.
an average of 9.S7 per cent; Idaho.
1855, and Montana, 1927 per cent.
The south is little better OF. while
in the east to 6 per cent II the
average.
Is there any good reason why q
farmer should not get money as
cheaply as any other business man?
The American Bankers Association.
at . recent meeting, spent consider
able time in discussing plans by
which money could be loaned to
farmers at lower rate of interest.
The members OF this organization
have their ear to the ground" ~
1t we're, and begin to realize that
unless they become interested In
cheaper money for the farmer.
some other channel will be provid-
ID, whereby better facilities will be
