FARM
LOAN SYSTEM
By C.. A. NOrcrOsS, Director Agricul-
turaI EXtenSiOn)

AAAe
The Federal Farm Loan board will
visit Reno, Tuesday, September 18th.
for the purpose of holding a public
hearing and investigation of the farm
credit situation in Nevada in relation
to the operations of the new Rural
Credits law, or Farm Loan act, as it
is officially to be called.
This act was signed by the Presi-
dent on July 18th. The Federal Farm
Loan board, created by the act and
having in charge its administration,
consists of the Secretary of the Treas
ury and four appointed members,
namely: George w. Norris, of Penn
sylvania; Hebert Quick, of West Vir-
ginia; w. S. A. Smith, of Iowa. and
Charles Z. Lobdell, of Kansas.
Twelve regional banks, to be known
as Federal Land banks. are to be es-
tablished by the Farm Loan board.
The present series of hearings
throughout the United States are to
enable the board to determine which
twelve cities shall be the sites of such
regional banks and the states which
shall comprise the district for each.
One regional hank, at least, will be
established on the Pacific coast and
possibly two. Assuming that San
Francisco may be chosen as the site
of one, then California, Nevada and
probably Utah and Arizona would
likely comprise its district; with Ore
gon. Washington. Idaho and possibly
Montana in another district, and Port
land or Seattle as the site of its re-
gional bank. It is hardly conceivable
that Reno will be selected as the site
of a regional bank; the hearing on
September u being more likely in
the nature of an Investigation TO de-
termine the farm credits situation in
Nevada and the proper districting of
the state in respect to the regional
banks.
The Federal Land Banks
Each of the twelve regional banks
must have a subscribed capital stock
of not less than $750.000, the par value
of each share being five dollars. The
Farm Loan board appoints the Off
GERS of the new bank and the capital
stock is offered for sale at par to the
public. The stock remaining unsold
at the end of thirty days is bought by
the Secretary of the Treasury of the
United States; but the government
shall not receive any dividends on
stock so held, and provisio is made
for retransfer to associations of Dor
rowers by the government at par
value, as hereinafter stated.
After a regional bank has loaned
$4,000 on first mortgage. it can OBJ
tain permission from the Farm Loan
Board to issue a like amount of farm
bonds based upon these mortgages,
to sell the same in open market, and
to use the proceeds for further farm
loans. This process may be repeated
until bonds to the amount of twenty
times thee banks paid-up capital are
outstanding. The regional banks may
at any time increase their capital
stock above the required minimum of
$3.50, 900.
The bonds (also the mortgages on
which they are based) are exempt
from federal, state. municipal and To-
cal taxation and are made legal in
vestments for fduciary and trust
funds. The capital stock of the banks,
also, is exempt from taxation. The
bonds are to be issued in denomina-
tons of $50, $50, 800. $500 and $1,000.

grad correspondent says that Emperor
Nicholas in an imperial order to the

sion of the Russian New Year day
proclai ed that there can be no pea
without victory. The order follows:
THE year 1915 has passed. and it was
flied with memorable instances of sac
rifice by my glorious forces. In a hard
struggle with an enemy. strong in
numbers and rich in all resources they
have harassed that enemy and checked
his invasion, their breasts forming an
invincible shield of protection for the
fatherland
''On the threshold of the year 1915 I
send to you my greetings, my brave
warriors. In heart and thought ! am
with you while you battle in the
trenches, imploring the aid of the Most
High your work, your valor and
your courage. Remember this: Our
beloved Russia cannot be assured of
her independence and her rights, can
not enjoy the fruits of her iabors or
develop her resources unless a decisive
victory is gained over the enemy"
