The agricultural extension division of
the university Of Minnesota through r:
s. Macintosh, agricultural specialist, is
starting campaign for the encourage"
ment of the spraying of apples this sea-

the forming Of cooperative groups for

have followed this plan, he says, with
success.

Washington, May 29.-The league Of

practical organism, entirely consistent
with the American Constitution, by
Senator Robinson, Democrat, of Ar
kansas, in the senate. Opponents OF

REPUBILCANS ATTACK FARM
:, LOAN BANKS ~ 49,

In an article more, than column
long. the official organ Of the Republl'
can organization exploits and encour'
ages the attempt which Representative
McFadden, of Pennsylvania, has an.
nounced will be made to repeal the act
under which farm-loan banks have been
established in behalf Of small agricu'
tural interests. This organ of the Re.
publican party and spokesman for the
Republican majority:.in the next Con
gress refers Ito the present plan TO help
the farmers as, Han expensive folly
and a sssocialistic bubble.' ca
RepeatingSthe statements Of asformer
Republican Congressman, the organ
characterizes the farm-loan act as
"class legislation;" y asserts that 1T
does not promote home building or the
buying of farms; contends that it ben
efts only one farmer in .16l, u and de.
clares that it "Icosts the American pe0-
pie $40 to give the farmer ST.
Herbert Quick, member Of the Farm
Loan Board, has already pointed out
that the attack on the FARM loan banks
is inspired by the; concerns which have
made millions in lending money to farm
ers at excessive interest, The land
UduhS IdI0 10 w P0A 0OA1' UNIV oAAoAA
establishment no money lenders have
been charging more than 6 per cent on
farm loans, except in a few localities.
Before the banks were instituted, inter
est on such accommodations ran as high
as Is per cent and was seldom under 8
per cent.
When it is remembered that the Fed
eral land banks now have outstanding
about $1SO,000,000 of loans to farm.
ers, the saving to the latter in interest,
compared with the rates they would
have had to pay from private lenders,
will be seen to be a vast amount. In ad-
dition to the lesser charge for the use
of the money, the farm-loan banks have
also made borrowing much easier for
the small farmer. Loans are made up
to so per cent of the appraised value
of the farm, plus 20 per cent Of the
value of the permanent insured i'm:
provements.
If the Republican majority want to
prove the value and popularity Of the
farm-loan bank, let them undertake to
abolish it.
