ing expenses, can declare assoeia-
ton dividends to their members. In
this way the profits, if any, will be
distributed among the borrowers and
will, to that extent, reduce the amount
of interest actually paid by them.
Restriction on Fees and Commissions.
The Federal land banks are speci-
fcally prohibited from charging, in
connection with making a loan, any
fees or commissions which are not
authorized by the Farm Loan Board.
The authorized fees need not be paid
in advance, but may be made part
Of the loan.
Amortization Plan of Repaying Loans.
1t has been said that all loans are
to be repaid on the amortization plan.
This plan calls for number of fixed
annual or semi-annual payments,
which include not only all interest
and charges due the bank, but the
principal as well. These payments
are so calculated as to extinguish the
debt in a given number of years. Af-
ter five years the borrower has the
right on any interest date to make ad-
ditional payments on the principal in
sums of S25 or any multiple thereof,
thus discharging the debt more quick
ly.
The table given below illustrates
how q loan of $1,000, bearing interest
at 5 per cent, would be retired in 20
years by annual payments of $S0.24.
A study of the columns shows how
from year to year the interest is
reduced and the proportion of the
payment which goes to discharge the
principal steadily increases. The f.
nal payment cancels the debt.
