FEDERAL CREDITS LAW ENABLES
AGRICULTURALIST TO BOR-
ROW AT REASONABLE RATE
OF INTEREST.
IL FEDERAL LAND BANKS
WILL EXTEND CREDIT
Rate Of Interest Charged on Farm
Loans Shall Not Exceed Six Per
Cent Per Annum, According to
Act-Each Land Bank to Es-
tabish Branches.

Washington, July 22.-The Federal
Farm Loan act, popularity called "Ru-
raj Credits Law which was signed
by the President, and became a law
July II, 1916, is of special interest
to farmers, bankers and business men
in general.
The primary purpose Of this act is
to promote agricultural prosperity by
enabling farmers to borrow money on
farm-mortgage security at a reason
able rate Of interest and for relative
ly long periods of time. TO attain
this object, two farm-mortgage sys-
TENS are provided: Cd A system op-
Grating through regional land banks;
and GU a system operating through
joint-stock land banks.
Under Federal Loan Board.
To attract money to the farm loan
field. the act provides a method
whereby those who have money to
lend can find safe investments in the
form of debentures or bonds, of small
and large denominations, issued by the
banks and based on the security of
mortgages on farm lands.
These two systems are to be under
the general supervision of a Federal
farm loan board in the treasury de-
partment, composed of the secretary
Of the treasury, as chairman eX-officio,
and four members appointed by the
President.
Under the Federal land bank sys-
tenn the act provides for Federal land
banks which make loans, for the first
IL months, exclusively through local
national farm loan associations COM
posed of borrowers. These associations
shall be shareholders in the banks
and in that way the members, who
are the borrowers, will share in the
profits Of the bank.
The money for the loans is to como
partly from the capital of the banks
and partly from the sale by the banks
of bonds secured by first mortgages on
farm lands. The act defines strictly
the purposes for, and the conditions
under, which loans are to be made,
and requires that the rate of interest
charged on farm loans shall not ex-
coed per cent per annum.
Twelve Farm Loan Districts.
The United States shall be divided
into IL farm loan districts, and a
Federal land bank with a subscribed
capital stock of not less than $75OOOO,
each share SIS, shall be established in
each district. Each Federal land bank
may establish branches in it's district
Within 80 days after the capital stock
is offered for sale it may be purchas-
ed at par by anyone. Thereafter, the
stock remaining unsold shall be bought
by the secretary of the treasury for
the United States.
