Some of the meat markets and

Because of the large volume Of
business done by Swift G. Co. in

prevailed that some of the tainted
meat had been supplied by this con-

Secretary Can Sell Bonds.
ITO provide funds the Secretary Of
the Treasury is authorized to sell 8
per cent twenty-year bonds when
necessary.
"The rate of interest the association
charges the subscriber is immaterial
so long as it charges enough to repay
the government loan at per cent
and the administration expenses of
making the loan, because if the sub
scriber is charged more than the cost
it all comes back to him in the wind
up.
Allowing for moderate administra-
ton expense and repayment to the
Government as indicated ii will be
found that borrowers may have the
use of an average sum of $24 900
during the entire twenty years, at an
average rate of 3.S per cent. In other
words, the payment of per cent an
nually of the sum borrowed, pays
both debt and interest and accumu-
lates in the treasury of the association
$13,965, a sum equal to 81 per cent
of the sum borrowed.
THE advantage of the system is
shown by comparing the results with
straight loan of S24,890 at per
cent interest for twenty years. The
sum paid for interest would be $29,-
S68.
Under the proposed system the
use of the same sum could be Sc
cured for the same length of time at
a net cost of $18.S93, making a saw
ing of $10,975. This shows what COM
pound interest will do for the farmer
when it is working for him"
