"B. Il H." on THE FARM.

During the last two or three years
reference to "land loan banks" plan
ned on the system In European coun-
try. These ar" in fact nothing more
nor less than building and loan COM
panics, and ii W. had In the United
States Il building and loan plan for
financing III" farms. The country
would be Il great deal better off than
it is, just rs the building and loan
notably Charlotte. y. &.
Mr.. d. a. Tompkins OF Charlotte.
who Is one OF the greatest believers in
the building and loan plan for cities.
has declared Ills advocacy OF the
building and loan plan for farms.
After pointing ont that the people
benefited in the towns are the clerks
and the mechanics. and their purpose
Is to save money and build he con
cludcs that with proper encourage
ncni The purpose of the tenant farm
ers would be to save money and to
buy and improve farms
How MANY farms there arc in the
state OF South Carolina that are earn
ing nothing because there IL no way
to induce tenants to occupy the fall
ing down cabins and the owners Of
the farms are unable to build new
tenant houses. These and other such
deplorablr conditions might be rcIne-
died.
There is absolutely no Legislation
necessary to start Que of these insti-
tutiOns. writes MIR. Tompkins. Fifty
farmers In the country can organize
any time. and without any further
law than Il clerk Of the court charter.
They can either have II secretary and
treasurer Of their own or they can get
some banking institution in town to
keep their books for them. The mem
bers Of these societies save their
money and then loan IL to their MEM
bers as they need II. precisely as the
building and loan does with It's mem
hers. The building and loan might
be called n savings and building as
socintions." These farmer land loan
banks might equally be called say
ihSS hiit uSSOtiu-
tions." Some European governments.
after the farmers banks succeeded
wonderfully, have appropriated some
sums OF money to loan through these
institutions. Hut this Is Il semblan
for politics sake The real work of
the land loan bank is like the work Of
our building and loan association. not
III the least aided by government at
all.
There would be an advantage In
dealing with some commercial bank.
III that they could get money on short
loans through the bank to loan to
members until they took in enough
money Of their own to loan. There
fore. there Is nothing In the world
necessary to be done except for 20, 30
or SO farmers to organize land loan
credit society and make their ar
raEgenents to have their books and
money kept and then go ahead.
Perhaps some day some enterpris-
ing farmers and good enterprising
bank will get together on this subject
apd start the ball In motion. The
building and loan associations gencr-
ally have about 200 100000 of accum-
ulated money. This Is the money of
the clerks and mechanics aggregated
throughout the country. II the farm
ers had $700.000000 accumulated It
would make Il vast difference to the
agricultural interests of this country.
