FARM LOANS
AT S 1-2 PER CENT

Loans on farm lands at 5 1s per cent
interest, with PRIVILEGE OF
PAYING ON THE PRINCIPAL
at any annual interest period.
AS a rule farmers do not care TO
cucumber their land with a long term
mortgage without the privilege of re-
paying the entire loan in reasonable
length of time. Many sales have been
prevented because the borrowers have
been unable to obtain a release of the
mortgage before maturity without the
payment of heavy bonus. Under the
option in our mortgage papers THE
BORROWER CAN REPAY THE EN-
TIRE LOAN, OR A PORTION OF
IT, AT ANY INTEREST PERIOD,
if he desires to do so.
Loans are made ONLY ON IM-
PROVED FARM LANDS.
In estimating the value of land, it's
productive capacity is taken as ba-
sis while its nearness to market. access
sibility to roads and turnpikes, neigh
borhood, ETC., are also considered.
The partial payment privilege, and
long time, make this contract a very
favorable and desirable one for far
mers. Then, too, we close our loans
WITHOUT DELAY. For further in
formation, address

cording to witnesses. Gill was in the act of knocking tobacco from his pipe when Dormeyer struck him on the side of the face. Gill fell back limp, and his head struck the sidewalk.
 After knocking Gill down, 1t is said, Dormeyer walked down the street with his wife and son, whe had been waiting for him, and got into a taxicab which appeared to be waiting. Gill mean while was carried into the office and given medical attention. later being taken to the Sisters Hospital. He was conscious at first, but seemed dazed. Later in the afternoon he was opera ted upon in a last effort to save his life.
 After entering the taxi Dormeyer was driven to the Santa Fe freight depot. where he attended to some goods he was shipping, got four suitcases from the passenger station. and ord cred the driver to take him and his wife and boy to the nearest Santa Fe depot outside the city limits. Accord meyer was not satisfied to stop at Glendale. but urged the car on to Beardsley, where he was overtaken by the officers about six minutes before the train arrived. He had tickets for Stockton, Cal.
 The capture of Dormeyer was large ly due to w. w. Wells of The Repub- lican, who saw Gill fall and followed Dormeyer to the taxicab, arriving in time to catch the number.
 Gill. who was well known here, is survived by his wife, an invalid, at their ranch home near Desert Inn. Mrs. Gill last night was reported prOstrated by the shock.
