EIGHT PER CENT FARM MORT
CAGES.
Golden Opportunity for Buying Sec
Ond Mortgages ON farms Run.
ming Five Years.

People with money to loan will
have q golden opportunity opened to
them with the next few months to
buy second mortgages on Iowa farms
running Ave years at eight per cent
interest. The amounts Of the loans
will hS' small on each farm but the
security iN uost cases win be as safe
and as sound, as the nrst mortgages
which run toxhanks. Insurance. COM
panies and to the farm land banks.
Z The rule as to farm loans will be
that insurance companies and federal
farm land banks will not loan to ex-
ceed $500 per acre upon Iowa land.
Ordinary banks will be limited to the
same figure because they must keep
their mortgage loans in. quickly
convertible condition. They will keep
their loans within the requirements
Of the market so as to be able to sell
them when they need money.
Most Of the farms that have been
sold at $3.50 to $500 per acre for
transfer March have been sold up
on promises of first mortgage loans
in excess Of 500 per acre. If those
who receive the mortgages would put
them into negotiable form they will
have to limit the first mortgage to
800 per acre and take seconds for
the rest. A second mortgage which
does not exceed $3.50 per acre when
combined with the first on a farm
that has sold for $3.50 per acre is
perfectly safe and sound and will go
at a high rate of interest.
Those who were confident of being
able to borrow $3.50 per acre on a
$3.50 per acre farm when they go to
the bank viii iind $100 per acre the
limit for first mortgage loans. Banks
can not take second mortgages be-
cause they are not quickly convert
ible. Investors with money to loan
should get next to their bankers
and be ready to take perfectly good
second mortgage at 8 per cent when
the bank has borrower seeking
more than 500 per acre upon some
Of these $3.50 per" acre Iowa farms.
1t will beat 5 " per cent for interest
and the security will be practically as
good.-Marshalltown Times Repub.

Des Moines, lathe machinery
for selecting the state delegation to
the national convention having been
junked and thrown on the scrap heap
by the Iowa legislature in the repeal
OF the presidential preference prim-
cry law it's one and only trial in
1915, consideration is now being
given by republican. leaders here to
the method of selecting the delega-
tion next year. It seems to be the
general impression that the repub-
lican state entral committee is en-
dowed with full authority in the
matter of providing the means Of Sc
lecting this delegation and that 1t
will 60 back to the old caucus and
convention method followed before
the presidential preference primary
was invented.
In any event it will be up to the
state central committee to provide =
way to name the men who will repre-
sent the republicans Of Iowa at the
national gathering and no way has
as yet been suggested other than the
old one established by custom and
precedent previous to 1915.
The old system has been to hold
caususes and select delegates to 2
county convention which in turn
chose delegates to a state convention
to be, held early in May. The state
convention would then choose the
iowa delegation -, the republican
national convention. I've fasu s2ca

The Iowa republicans in the national
convention, falls the duty. Of select-
ing the 1, national committeeman
from Iowa. And thds selection fs
conceded to be Of much concern to
the republican leaders Of the state.
The 1916 model. then resarded as
the most up to date creation Tor
registering the peoples Wishes as u
who should run for president and
vice president and who should repre-
sent the state at the national con-
yention, attracted SO little attention
that its makers were ready to aDan
don il on the very first opportunity
This opportunity came when the
legislature met in 1917. The solons
however, quit when they had 1unkei
this model and did not undertake to
create, a new one. Hence It is tne
present thought of leaders here tnat
the old system will be used next

OLD OLEO BUTTER
]. FIGHT ON AGAIN
Congressman Hau2en Preparing Fed
eial Dairy Bill to Fix Standard
of Butter Fat Content of
Creameries
BUTTER SUBSTITUTE MAKERS
DESIRE STANDARD RAISED
Haugen's Bill Would Fix National
Law Basis Same as That i'm
Iowa, or 80 Per Cent.

Des Moines, Ia,-Congressman
Gilbert N. Haugen, OF the Fourth Ia.
district is preparing federal dairy
bill in cooperation with the United
States department of agriculture
which will embody the much disputed
point OF, how much butter fat will be
required in the butter produced in
the United States. This is the word
brought back from Washington by
State Dairy Commissioner w. B. Bar
ney, who spent most of last week at
the national capital.
This question involves the old-time
fight between the oleomargarine
makers and the dairymen or butter
makers, it Is reported. The oleo
manufacturers would like to put the
butter fat content so high, the cream
cry men allege, that butter prices
would be so much increased the oleo
would have great advantage in
price. Creamerymen say butter is
nlgn enough now.
/ The proposition now is whether a
proposed dairy bill shall make the
butter fat content S2h per cent or
fix it at 80 per cent, which is the
standard Iowa creamerymen gener-
ally meet now. Haugen's bill would
fix the federal standard at so per
cent and this is what the dairymen
want.
Foreign butter, particularly that
made in Denmark, is 80 per cent and
our butter comes in direct competi-
tion with this foreign product in
some Of the best markets.
Commissioner Barney reports that
/ the IOWA aairymen are opposed 10 i7-
creasing the standard are passing the
increase on to the consumer because
they contend butter is too high, for
the good OF the business now. But
to increase the butter content 2 " per
cent, as has been porposed by some
interests, would cost creamery men
in this state over million and half
Of dollars a year figured on the total
annual output of creamery butter.
Another proposition which food
commissioners are interested in is the
regulation of feeding stuffs for cattle
particularly dairy cattle, and a feder-
al law based on the Iowa law is about
to be drawn up. This will require
that the containers. meaning the
bags, boxes, barrels or whatever it is
that the feeding stuff is put in, must
be marked with the names of the in
gradients the food contains in the
order in which these various foods
are present.

BUTTER DOUBLES IN DECADE.
Creamery Product Twice as High ,as
1t Was in 1909.

Des MOines, Ia.-GoOd creamery
butter this year has been twice as
high in price as it was ten years ago.
hgures just compiled by the state
food and dairy department show. In
1909 creamery butter was averaging
arouYs: 2sh cents per pound. This
year it has averaged 6711 cents. In
1917 it averaged between 42 and 4S
cents and in 1918 from 81 to 5s
cents.
In twelve mohths' period ending
Aug. l this year. the total amount
Of money received by creameries for
buffers amounted to $43.969.2S5, as
compared to $ss.s0s.sss in 1913.
The great bulk Of the butter manu-
factured by the creameries Of Iowa
ID sold outside the state. Out Of the
total amount Of 90.s16,SS8 pounds
Of butter manufactured, 79,647,236
pounds were sold outside of Iowa.

York markets.
In fact these markets, particularly
/, New York. get all Of the extra quail

!, pay fancy prices for It, higher, in

The practice of using cooling tanks
and selling 1weet cream to the cream
cries is becoming more gensral, the
