makes it possible for a farmer to pay
northumberland debt with thirty
three one-cent payments. And this is
made possible without the compound
Ing Of interest, without building and
loan association computations, without
actuarial figures of any kind, but by
plain simple interest at per cent.
You, who are familiar with the amorti-
cation table, understand how the
farmer pays per cent interest on his
loan and pays l per cent additional
each year for thirty-three years to
wipe out the principal.
Can Pay Principal Any Time.
"Under the farm loan act, the bor-
rover may pay off his loan before the
expiration of the 33 years, If he
chooses. He is permitted to pay off
any part of his debt on any interest
payment date, after five years, without
previous notice.
81 want to get into the record this
plea from the farmers Of the West. /
want to say that this law in its pres
ent effectiveness Is necessary in order
to keep the farmer on the farm. In
the corn belt, which is the garden spot
of the nation, the population in 1910
was less than in 1880. At the same
time the cities of that corn belt have
increased their population by 100 per
cent. You have got to do something
to keep the farmer on the farm. You
have got to give him some benefits. He
Is the only man in this nation who
has had no particular benefit from
the government.
"We are now in the most critical pc
riod Of the worlds history, and If this
law increases production-and it does
1t surely should not be interfered

TeIIs of High Rates In Montana.
When Senator Gronna asked Mr..

to get money at 6 per cent. / want to
say to you that the mortgage COM
panies in our state have no rate less
than per cent and that they are get
ting 8, 8 and 10 per cent. We have
filed exhibits with your committee
showing that the mortgage houses are
getting 10 per cent, and that some
times they are exercising usury above
10 per cent, getting commission of 10

banks is now placed at $50,00O). Here
is the point: You cannot say you will
only lend $500 anu that you will
make that loan to class Of farmers
who only want $2,50O, while at the
same time here is a man who wants
$4,000 or $4,000, who is just as capa-
BILE Of using that amount efficiently In,
the production of food as Is the other,
fellow of using the $500.
"Since this bill (senate bill 3109) has
been pending, the statement has gone
out from the joint stock land banks,
that all applications for loans are held.
up until it is known whether this bill
Is to pass. Ny neighbor, Mr.. J. H.
Upps, was approached by loan shark
and offered loan Of $4,000 to take
the place of loan that was to have
been made to him by joint stock land
bank. The joint stock land bank would
have made the loan for 33 years, but
the loan shark only offered to make
his loan for five years. The loan,
shark did, however, offer to make the
loan of $4,000 at 6 per cent interest
with only an additional charge of $500
for commission.
What VIII Happen In Five Years2 I
"But the question Is: What will
happen at the end of the five years7
When the influence Of the joint stock
land banks or the federal land banks
has disappeared because they have
been killed by this bill, then what will
the loan shark ask my neighbor Upps
when his debt falls due? A million
farmers in the United States can make
mighty good guess as to what will
happen. A million farmers IN the
United States can foresee how the loan
shark will put the screws upon Mr..
Upps when the time for renewal comes
around.
"The farmer is willing and anxious
to increase production. He knows that
the nation needs food. He knows that
the world needs food. He knows that
the nation is depending on him. He
knows that the world is depending
upon the American farmer. But he
knows also that he cannot make
bricks without straw If you want
the farmer to increase production you
have got to furnish him the tools. You
have got to furnish him the oppor.
tunity. You have got to furnish him
the capital on convenient terms and at
reasonable rates. You cannot ham
string the financing of the farmer and
get your needed increased production" !"

WANTS TWO KINDS OF BANKS
SAYS Joint Stock Land Banks Are FOR

With Cooperative idea.

"There should be two kinds Of land
banks" said A. I'll. Judy, an Ohio farm
er, speaking before the United States
senate committee on banking and cur
rency In January.
"The reason for this is that one set
of farmers do not want to take stock
In any institution. but want to use
whatever money they can get In their
farming operations, while other farm
ers will join cooperative societies and
take stock In the cooperative land
banks. The joint stock land bank an
swers the need of those farmers who.
do not care to join a cooperative so-i

OF LIVING, SAYS GRANGE

LONG HOURS AND HARD WORK
Will Not Support Even United States
Farmer Is Tired of Long Slav-
might've Things to Be
Expected.

SYRACUSE, N. fisherman J..
Lowell, master of the national grange,
in a statement here February l de-
clared that it was the belief of the
farmers of the country that the only
way to reduce the cost of living was
for every one to be willing to do "a
reasonable days work." and that the
44-hour week would not support even
America. His statement in part fol
lows:
Those who are best informed on
agricultural conditions in America
can not offer the slightest hope of
lower food prices. so far as the farmer
is concerned.
Must Get Ready to Work Again.
In the reconstruction every one
must get ready to actually work
again, to save again and to a consid.
cradle degree to get back to thrift,
sanity and commo sense, or else ac.
cept as permanent the present scale
of living costs, in which event We
might just as we'll stop ranting about
the high cost of living and realize
that a new basis of economic proce.
dure is here to stay.
"This is the declaration of the ma
tional grange which sees in the future
no reason why it's members should
slave long hours, seven days a week
to supply cheap food to the Other
workers of the country who enjoy
short hours and unlimited opportunity
for rest and pleasure.
Speaking as the largest and best
established farmers organization ir
America, the grange hereby notifies

that may be expected in time to have

RoBs TRAIN WITH GUN EMPTY

" OMAHA, Neb.-One lone bandit,
armed with an empty automatic gun,
robbed the mail car on a Union Pacific
passenger train of all registered mail

the mail clerks no m saw him as he

The bandit commanded all the clerks
to put up their hands and searched
them to see if they had guns. He
then drove them to the ear of the
car where he locked them up. He
then went through nine sacks of reg.

The amount taken from the mail is
unknown. One of the clerks asked the
bandit if this was his first holdup.
