81. Josepr. Mo-. Jan. THE farm
wealth OF the United States. estimat-
ed n, 40 billion dollars should be
the basis upon which the prosperity
OF the country rests permanently,
yet there is no adequate law under
which TO finance the farmers. That
was the condition described here last
week at the Interstate Agricultural
Congress by w. c. Brown former
president OF the New, York Central
Railroad.
"The establishment OF farm credit
Is one OF the most important moves
before the nation" Mr.. Brown said,
"The farmer is paying twice the In
terest he should pay. Long time loan
at low rates would enable the farm.
or to properly finance his work anl
II is this financing upon which le'
pends TO large degree the prosper
ity oe the country"
