Bills
How Low Rates Are Secured
for Farmers.

"The federal land banks are not per-
mitted to charge any rate Of interest
except that which the board may pre-
scribe, and the rate Of interest which
the farmer is required to pay may new
err exceed one per cent In excess Of the
rate upon the bonds.
eff they can sell the bonds at three
per cent, the farmer under the terms
gets the benefit; he gets it at four
and in addition to that pays one per
cent for amortization, which would
make the cost Of the money five per
cent, including all of the expenses Of
the operation of the bank and the one
per cent for amortization.
"Now the value of the loan to the
farmer is very great. Not only is he
assured of his credit for thirty-three
or thirty-six years, If he wants 1t, but
he knows that nobody can force the
earlier payment of the principal of the
loan except upon his own default. Or
the other hand, if he happens to By
prosperous and finds that he has earned
enough money to pay the loan before
maturity, he is allowed to pay it in full
or any part, at any time after five
years."

heavy bank sales of these securities,
which alone amounted to $872.8O0 for
the period embraced between Novem-

In addition to its war savings secur-

is stressing the advantages of invest
ment in liberty bonds at their pres
ent prices and advising persons, es-
pecially small investors who have
some ready money, to snap up the
bonds which are selling at various
figures somewhat below par, not be-
cause they are worth less than their
face value plus accrued interest, but
because temporarily there happen to
be many of them thrown on the mar
ket by spectators who are forced to
liquidate assets. Financial experts
are agreed that within short time
every issue of liberty bonds will not
only reach par but no doubt bring a
premium.

herself and her charms. "Why, Jim

turned to little James provokingly and
asked: "Don't you think Tn pretty?
