RURAL CREDIT LOANS
REACH 20 MILLION
Loans Made In All But Two
Counties of the State

Practically twenty million dol
lars of loans is the record so far
made by the state rural credits
commission, according to their
statement issued showing their
condition of business on the 18th
day of January.
According to that statement
they have made 4,826 individual
loans, which amounted to S19,-
666,050, which was secured by
1,269,782 acres of farm land in
the state, with an average loan
ing rate of $16.28 per acre. This
low rate is from the fact that the
newer counties of the state have
been more ready to take up this
method of assisting in develop
ment than have the older coun-
ties, and the valuation per acre
has been held held down by this.
The showing indicates that at
this time there are but two
counties in the state in which
loans have not been made, these
being Douglas, east of the Mis-
souri, river, and Washington,
west of the river. While the
loans in several counties get near
the million mark, the only ones
which have gone over that fig
ure are Brookings with ST, 1885,
900, with loans in that county
running at S45.82 per acre.
Hand is also over the million
mark with $1,13O,5O0, and in
that county the average loaning
rate has been $19.68 per acre.
The highest loaning rate in
any county has been in Union,
where it was S67.37 per acre and
the lowest is in Armstrong, a re-
servation county, where the ave-
rage was only SAG per acre.
The new counties west of the
river have been ready to take
the opportunity to build up their
section of the state through the
loans of the commission, and
while the number of Individual
loans run higher in west river
counties than they do in those
east of the river, the amount
loaned east of the Missouri is
far beyond that loaned west of
the river.
Up to the present the commits
sion has been able to loan at five
per cent, as they could sell the
bonds at a rate under this per
cent; but the present money sit
uation is such that on the last
issue of bonds the best rate they
could get was a shade over five
per cent; this will force the rate
high enough above that figure
to meet the existing conditions.
While the best bid.on the last is
sue of bonds was five and a
quarter, on the same day govern
ment bonds were selling at a
discount which will net the pur-
chaser about five and a half per

TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS

A month ago subscription
statements were mailed to all
those in arrears for the Review.
The returns have been quite
good, but not what they should
have been. We want to impress
upon those who have not res
ponded our request that they do
so at once. We are giving our
readers full value for their mon
ey. The Review carries more
local reading matter, week after
week, than do nine-tenths of the
weekly papers published in the
state. In doing this we are en-
titled to the subscription price
when it is due. There are sever
al hundred who are still delin-
quent. The amount in each case
is small but it counts up like
everything as q whole. 1t takes
stationery, postage, and extra
help, which is practically un-
obtainable, to get out these
statements and we are not going
to send out any during the pres
ent month, but ask everyone ow-
ing us for subscription to send
it in--using Mickey's words,
without waiting for a printed
invitation"

Possibility Of French Loan

In the light of the foregoing, II is
possible to understand why the French
are beginning to reconsider their
financial plans. Two months ago the
French despaired Of the possibility Of
floating any new loans in the United
States. 1t then seemed that the in
vestment market would fail to absorb
any European issues. The French had
practically decided that, If it was nee
essary to do any new financing in con-
nection with the meeting of the Anglo
French maturity, on October Is next, it
would bs done in London. They have
not yet changed their program, but
the striking success of the recent Bel
gian loan Of $50,000,O00 and Of the still
more recent Swiss loan of $25,O00,O0
has impressed them, with the improve
ment in the American investment mar
ket. Persons close to the French
Treasury now seem to feel that if
France would pay the going rate it
would be possible for it to raise new
money in this country. Already the
sentiment of bankers and government
officials is being sounded out.

Advance on Curb
Is Continued in
Broader Market
Independent Oils Register
Gains as Demand Remains
Strong; Attention Di-
rected to Specialties

With demand continuing firm through
out the list stocks moved up steadily
in curb market trading yesterday, al
though professional pressure exerted
here and there combined with profit
taking to cause irregularity at times.
Several of the independent oils regis
tered substantial net gains and special
ties began to attract attention as out
siders came into the market.
Interest was centered for time in
the stock of the new Gardner Motor
Corporation, which. was traded in for
the first time, and the quotation quick
ly moved up 2 points above the offer
ing price Of $27. Other motor stocks
for this class and advances were re-
corded. Peerless and Rainier closed
at their best, the former showing a
net advance of point at 38 and the
latter ruling strong ut 39h. Franklin
Motor was also up a point.
Hercules Paper featured trading in
the industrials with steady advance
of points from 2614 on reports cur
rent in the market that the company
had prospects of good business for
some time to come with mills running
at capacity. General Asphalt suffered
a reaction after an advance of about
d pOlnt and snoWe0 only fractional
net change for the day.
Fensland Oil was strong again and
moved up to 1871, a gain Of several
points over the low prices ruling dur
ing tho period Of dullness and q net
advance Of more than point for the
day. Midwest Refining again moved up
to 1b0 and closed strong at that figure.
Other oils showed reactions here and
there, Maracaibo Carib Syndicate and
Simms selling lower under renewed
pressure. Merritt Oil was fractionally
higher. ~
Guantanamo Sugar advanced again,
possibly on the strength of the extra
dividend of so cents declared by the
company at the time the regular
quarterly dividend Of the same amount
was declared. The net gain was more
than = point.
The new Swiss Ss continued In good
demand and sold at premium Of as
high as IL per cent, the last sale
/ being recorded at 101N. Movem
OF German internal bonds failed to
reflect sentiment over the Spa confer
ence, price changes being small and
irregular.

Rising Prices Cheer Sentiment

Two schools differ as to causes Of
stock market sentiment. The one con-
tends that stocks rise because traders
are cheerful; the other that people ars
cheerful because stocks have risen. Al
any rate, as practical matter men
Of finance seem much happier now than
a week ago. There is already the be-
ginning Of new attitude toward under
taking new projects. Folks are already

Reading Leads Rails

Expectations that the Interstate

rails u. to the level commensurate
with that in the industrial list. Read
ing, which has the added speculative
attraction of possible action in the
matter of segregating the company's
coal properties to conform with the
Supreme Courts decision, was the
leader of yesterdays buying move
ment and the stock at the close
slowed an advance of more than 4
points. Washington advices to a
Broadway brokerage firm from it's
Washington correspondent placed the
estimate Of the expected increase in
freight rates at SLOT 100000. It was
also said that the railroads have pre-
sented to the commission. plan pro-
viding for an increase in passenger
rates that will increase revenues by
between $25O,000,000 and $500, 900, 900.

Ways of Meeting Big Maturity

Although France has worked out sew
eral alternate schemes for meeting it's
share of the Anglo-Frcnch maturity of
100000 900, it is understood that it is
not irrevocably committed to the de-
tails of any one. If the very worst
situation developed and France found
itself unable to get credit in Britain
sor the United States, it could meet its
obligations by the shipment of gold as
to meet its full share would take only
one-ffth of the gold supply of France.
But because of its great supply OF out
standing currency France is anxious to
lose as little gold as possible in con-
nection with the operation. France,
like Great Britain, has already bought
in some of the outstanding bonds,
partly through purchases of bonds held
in London and Paris. France has credit
balances in this country and unsold
American securities which can and
probably will be used in connection
with Frances retirement of it's half
of the loan. Besides, it can buy 81 for
about II francs, whereas last February
a dollar cost 1898 francs. This strik-
ing improvement in the international
exchange value of the francs has made
it much cheaper for France to settle
part of its indebtedness through the
exchange market. French officials have
no doubt Of their ability to discharge
their indebtedness; they merely want
to choose the method that will add most
to Frances financial prestige and
stamina.

Position Of Equipment Companies

"The American equipment. companies
are in the most sound physical and
financial condition in their whole his
tories and are fully prepared to meet
with the tremendous demands for roll
ing stock which will be required of
them," say Hirsch, Lilienthal & Co., in
circular on "the present railroad and
equipment situation" The Stock Ex-
change firm adds: "It is our belief that
equipment stocks will be enhanced as
q result of greater earnings arising out
of the necessitous buying of rolling
stock by American and foreign rail-
roads," The firm estimates that $470,-
100000 must be expended for equip
ment in the coming year and that the
needs for the next two years will ap-
proximate $3,00o,0 100000.
American Woolen Stock Offering
Rumors that the American Woolen
syndicate had been left with 40 per
cent Of the $2O,00O,00O new common
stock on it's hands, it developed yester-
day, were entirely too optimistic. The
correct figures as given out by one of
the syndicate managers revealed that
only about $4,000 shares were sub
scribed for at par by the stockholders,
leaving over $1S,000,000 for the syndi-
cates to dispose of as best it can. The
American Woolen offering was handi-
capped by series of unfavorable de-
yelopments, among which was the at
tack on the company by the govern
ment in connection with an indictment
for profiteering. This Indictment, which
was also directed against President
Wood, was subsequently quashed, but
as the proceedings took place during
the period of the subscription rights
it naturally had depressing effect on
the. price of the stock In accordance
with the terms of the underwriting
agreement, the syndicate managers are
notifying the underwriters that such
stock as is being taken by the latter
will be held for the account of the
syndicate until October 26, 1920. The
