Qrestion has been frequently asked,

Loan Act for so per cent. OF the pvfs
chase price-providsd this does not
exceed 80 per cent Of the appraised
value-and a second mortgage given
to the former owner OF ne land or
to a bank or private money lender,

II must be borne 50 mind that The
amount which can be borrowed un-
der the Farm Loan Act IS limited to
so per cent OF the appraised value o.

assumption that the tenant Will not
