Federal Farm Loans

Twelve OF the new Federal Land
Banks, where farmers borrow money
at low rate of interest, will soon be
established throughout the United
States.
The privilege Of obtaining loans an-
der this system is limited to actual
farmers. The money borrowed must
be spent on the mortgaged land, eth
er for the purchase of the land, or for
the purchase of live stock or equip
ment needed for the reasonable oper-
alton of the farm. 1t cannot be used
for any other purpose.
Farmers may borrow any amount
from 800 to $4,000 and the mortgage
may run from s to 40 years at the
option of the borrower. The amount
Of the loan cannot exceed 80 per cent
of the value of the land and 20 per
cent of the value OF the improvements
The interest rate cannot be more than
6 per cent and may not be more than
per cent.
To make use Of this banking system.
however, the law requires that farm
ers. or prospective farmers, must get
together in groups Of ten or more and
form local National Farm Loan asso-
Citations. This means that farmer
who wants to borrow money from .
Federal Land Bank must find At least
nine other farmers who also want tn
borrow money. Then these ten or
more farmers form an association,
elect officers and send In their appli-
cation to the Federal Land Bank Of
the district for the loans.
Through the formation Of these as
sociations and the bulking Of the ap-
plications for the loans the business
Of the banks Is expedited, local re-
sponsibility is provided for the exclu-
sion of worthless risks, and the over
head cost Of handling the loans 10
greatly reduced. Under such an ar
rangement the appraiser can inspect
ten farms almost as cheaply as one.
Full Information may be obtained
from the Federal Farm Loan Board,
