FARMERS CREDIT
WILL Be IMPROVED
UNDER FEDERAL RESERVE SYS-
TEN CAN OBTAIN MON
EY EASIER.

As soon as the provisions OF the
new currency law are put in full OPP
Grafton by the organization of the
federal reserve system, work on which
is proceeding very fast, says the New
York Commercial. the farmers
throughout the country will find their
credit improved and the rate of in
terest they are now compelled to pay
automatically reduced. Under the
new law all national banks not located
in reserve cities are authorized to
lend money on farm mortgages to the
extent of one-fourth OF their paidup
capital surplus and one-third of their
time deposits. Such loans to farmers
must not exceed so per cent of the
actual value of the property. must be
secured by frst mortgages on 1t and
must mature within FIVE years. Apart
from these restrictions national banks
In all the smaller towns and cities
can extend credit to the farming
community either by lending money
or mortgages such as described. or
they may lend to tho farmers as at
present on ordinary notes or drafts
Farm mortgages of the prescribed
character will hereafter form part of
the legal assets and reserves of such
national banks. and wise manage
ment of the farm mortgage depart
ment will be profita BILE and will put
II in the power OF the banks to ad-
vance the interest of the communities
in which they are located to de-
gree that they have never been able
to attain in the past. The old ma
tional bank act made investments
in farm mortgages illegal as far as
national banks were concerned, and
It also Handicapped the hanks--in
dealing in foreign exchange and in
extending commercial credit In many
other instances This country has
thus labored under handicaps that
its rivals for worldwide trade have
escaped.
Every business man knows that the
welfare of the United States depends
chiefly upon the prosperity of Its
farmers When crops are good and
prices are remunerative. business is
sure to be prosperous and any little
furry that may be caused by strin-
gency in the money market or other
temporary causes soon passes over

which to buy goods. A farmer is
