and school lands be directed to apply
$85,000 of the $88,000 Of the state
bond sinking fund, now on deposit
with the Bank of North Dakota, and
drawing but two percent interest, and
presumably being loaned out by that
bank to farmers at six percent, to the

interest paid by the farmer and in
creasing the returns. to the school
funds of the state"

zky and seconded by Hall.
The resolution in full follows:
Whereas, there is deposited with
the Bank Of North Dakota $4,000 Of
the state bond sinking fund, and draw
ing but two percent interest, and
Whereas. said bank is loaning
money to the farmers of this state at
rate of six percent and using the
profits to pay exorbitant salaries and
needless expenses, and
Whereas, the board of university
and school lands holds $255, 900 Of four
percent state bonds coming due in the
near future, and
Whereas, said board has on file
applications for farm loans in excess
! Of $85,0O0, and
Whereas, the statutory rate of in
terest to be charged on such loans is
but five percent; Therefore,
Be it resolved, that the state treas
urer and state auditor be and are here
by directed to apply $85,000 now in
the state bond sinking fund to the re-
demption and cancellation of that
