OF the Credit Foncier in advancing
French agriculture. an institution
planned along the same lines has re-
Gently been chartered in Illinois. II
is a trust company chartered under
State laws and its operations are TO
be similar to those of the Credit Fon-
cier Its land mortgage business Will
be confined exclusively to tie state OF
Illinois.
The Credit Foncier in arranging its
loans on land provides for a certain
annual payment which includes inter
est charges. expenses OF administra-
ton and the repayment Of the prin-
cipal over a certain period OF years.
The Illinois Trus. Company has slight
ly changed this procedure. 1t has
planned q schedule Of semi-annual
payments. For each $1,000 obtained
from the institution for twenty years
the borrower will have to paw . nrst
semi-annual instalment Of $500. This
will gradually decrease as time goes
on until the last half-yearIy payment
will be $500. For a loan Of SI,oo5
for twenty years On this basis the Dor
rover will return . total Of $500. At
5 per cent per annum an ordinary mort
gage loan for twenty years would cost
a farmer 5000 or $1,000 more than
the principal, exclusive Of legal and
other necessary expenses In other
words, under the Credit Foncier plan
as applied In Illinois. the farmer would
be out Of debt nc less cost than under
the usual mortgage loan condition
Furthermore. thrift will be forced up
on the borrower. He will have TO
make his semi-annuaI payments. which
are 50 small a. TO permit him to read
