rately and if they are favorable the
Land Bank pays the amount of money
asked for. If after looking the proper
ty over the appraisers do not feel Justi-
fled in Ioaning the full amount of money
applied for, they will recommend that
the Land Bank loan a part of this
amount. In this case the borrower has
the option of accepting or refusing the
amount allowed.
ANY farmer desiring to borrow money
through the Association after it has
been organized cen do so by signing an
application, subscribing to stock of the
Association and furnishing an abstract
of title TO his land. After the applica-
ton has been reported on favorably he
NAV be admitted to membership by
two thirds vote of the Board of Direc-
tors of the Association. OF the amount
of money applied for five per cent
must be invested in the stock of the
Association. The shares of stock in
the Association have par value of five
dollars ($5. 00l each. If farmer Dor
rows $1,000 90 he must invest $500 of
this in the stock of the Association.
This is held as additional security for
the loans, until the loan is paid off,
when it is returned to the borrower or
can be applied on the last payment. If
the borrower so desires he may receive
the face value of the loan less five per
cent which will be retained by the As
ISOLATION to pay for his subscription to
the stock of the Association.
If any farmer in this county desires
to borrow money for any purposes as
stated above, the officers Of the Assoc
ton and the County Agricultural Agent

fully this method by which farmers can
