Farm Appraisements Made

Richard Burke, appraiser for the
Federal Loan Bank of Spokane, who
had been in Boundary county for
over a week making appraisals of
various farms upon which federal
loans have been asked, left Sunday
for Granite, Idaho.
During his stay here Mr.. Burke,
in company with Messrs. Spoerry
Branom and Stanley, made so APP
praisals. His report and that of the
local loan committee will be for
warded to the directors of the Fed
eral Farm Loan Bank in Spokane
who will decide whether or not the
applications will be honored. Secre-
tary Frank Bottum, of the local asso-
citation, states that it will be &c
days before it is known what appli-
cations have been accepted or re-
jected.
In view of the fact that many
applications for farm loans come
from the Copeland and Porthill dis.
tricts and that there are many yet
to come from these districts Mr.
Burke has recommended that a new
district loan association be formed
of the Copeland and Porthill dis.
tricts so that Copeland and Porthil
may select their own local boart
of appraisers and save the expense
of having appraisers come from Bon
ners Ferry for each application fol
a farm loan.

prepare for the trip. Senator Voll-
mer owns several hundred acres of
