THINKS BONDS SOLD
Says A.D.Stillman in Regard to
State Issue of Farm Loan
Bonds

Considerable publicity has been
given the matter of the issuance
of a block of $1O0, 600 worth of
| farm loan bonds, issued in accor-
dance with the law passed at the
last session of the legislature, and
the apparent inability of State
Treasurer w. c.. Rae to dispose
of the issue to investors.
Recently A. D. Stillman, pres
dent of the State Farmers Fed
GRAFTON offered to take the job off
of Treasurer Rae's hands and
! Mr.. Rae in turn rendered to Mr..
ktillman the position of Deputy
Commissioner of Farm Loans.
The latter refused the appoint
ment saying that he did not wish
to work under salary but that he
would 60 ahead and dispose of
the first issue of bonds, if possi-
bic. without compensation.
As a result Of Mr.. Stillman's
efforts a fraternal organization,
the Women Of Woodcraft, have
made a tentative offer to buy the
issue. Should a market be found
for the farm loan bonds the farm
ers of the districts where the
land is assessed at a sufficient
valuation to enable them to make
applications for loans will be
greatly benefited. Mr.. Stillman
says in regard to the sale Of the
first block:
1T was not until the twenty
fifth that I got permission to pub
lish the name Of the subscriber.
The first applicant to buy the
Montana Farm Loan Bonds is a
