THE HOME TOWN PAPER

Of men who fill our jails,
With headlines bold, SENSATIONAL
OF some new holdup caper-
Each has its place, but first or al
Give. me the Home Town Paper
To me it means a whole lot more
Than lust the weekly news,
Or comments on the nations plight,
Or editorial views
The Joys and SORROWS Of the tolkS
I know and love are there,
The folks who know and love me-
Whose experiences I share.
The calling Home Of some dear friend
Or where the stork has been
The doings of the people
I am interested in,
These are the things which build for me
My little world each day;
Cause folks at home mean more to me
Than facts from far away.
I read with pride of some home boy
Who's out to make his name
And now is climbing step by step
The stairs that lead to fame
1t, pleaSeS me to read about
improvements that are made
And how each merchant does his best
To build up local trade.

But our home paper strives to keep
So o Whs X4ags r. w maR things of life

to pay larger amounts on the princi-
pal at certain intervals. %.-5. :
We have obtained information from
about a dozen counties in South OAK
ota as result Of a quetionaire sent
to the county auditors, all Of whom re-
port that the system is very popular
and that it operates as a great boost
to farming and agricultural develop
ment in that state: Loans are based
upon the productive value of the land
the average assessed valuation for
the three years next preceding the
time of making application for the
loan and upon improvements to the
extent of 1870 of their insured value.
A certain prominent citizen of So.
Dakota gives this opinion regarding
the system-"The farmers can assume
other necessary obligations, make
more permanent improvements and
formulate their plans with greater as
surance for the future. With this
gradual payment Of the mortgage
debt, local banks are glad to make
short time loans with only a second
mortgage as. security, or on the far
mer's own persona! credit. The. sys-
tenn stabilizes financial matters in gen
eral for the farmer and is proving a
great factor in developing the agrl'
culture of the state"
Respectfully,
P. A. GANDRUD.

RURAL zCREDITS AMEND
MENT VIII L BE; SUBMITTED
Senator Gandrud Discusses Pro
posed Farmer Credits
IL. .. !. Proposition
st. Paul, MINI March

st. Paul, Mimi, March Z, 1921.
Dear Editor, Willmar Tribune:
&. The voters Of the state will have an
opportunity in the next election to
vote on a constitutional amendment,
which, If it receives a. sufficient vote,
will permit the next legislature to en-
act law putting into operation So
called rura! credits system for our
state. What this credits system aims
to accomplish is to foster agriculture,
dairying, live stock raising, and the
and development of ag-
ricultural lands. This constitutional
amendment is patterned after the rur-
al credits feature of an amendment to
the constitution Of the state of South
Dakota adopted by the voters of that
state in 1916. The law creating the
Rural Credits Board of that state
went into effect in July, 1917. The
first loan made under the law occur
red in October Of that year, and it hap
pened that this loan was made to a
renter who, with the support of a long
time loan Of 80 years, was able to be-
come the owner of farm. The sys-
tenn makes it easy for a farmer to
obtainla long time loan.' The farmer
must, of course, live up, to a strictly
business contract. He must be an
actual resident of the state. He must
either own land, or guarantee his in
tentiOn~ to buy land, machinery, live
stock, make improvements or pay off
debts. He must furnish good title and
to secure the state must give first
mortgage on his lands. At first some
Of the bankers of the state felt in
clined: to oppose this system, but now
it is found that they are enthusiastic
cally supporting the plan because they
pow see in it permanent develop
ment Of the agricultural resources of
the state to an extent that would not
have been possible without the rural
credits system. Up to the present
time there has been loaned under this
law to the farmers of South Dakota
about ,thirty-one million dollars. AS a
rule the farmer gets the money short
~ after making the application. Cen
orally the loans are made direct
there are no agents-no middlemen-
no commissions to pay. The state
sells it's bonds to get the money. The
farmer pays rate of interest on the
loan Of only a fraction of per cent
more than the rate of interest that the
state pays on the bonds.
The system is entirely self-support.
ing and operates at no expense what
soever to the taxpayers of the state.
The payments on the loan are so easy
and gradual that the farmer cannot
hardly feel it and with reasonable sue
cess he need not fear a foreclosure.
Payments on the loan are made on
the so-called amortization plan. Sup
pose the rate of interest is 6To-then
the farmer pays on every interest due
date 1926 on per one hundred dollars

WILLIAMS LAST SHOTS.
According to John Shelton Williams,
the currency, the banks of the country
have been among the worst profiteers
He says he found in one state. 131 ma
tional banks charging from Is 10 "a
per cent in erest, 81 whose maximum
rates we're between Is and go per cent,
% that charged between go and 100
per cent, and 26 whose rates were 100
per cent or more.
Williams stirred up a hornets nest
by one of his last official acts. He
called on all national banks to make
public reports as to the salaries of
their executive officers, the number of
such officers, and the aggregate of the
salaries. OF course, the order will not
be complied with, for Williams is out.
He has always been thorn in the
flesh of the bankers.
Williams recently wrote letter to
Judge Gary of the steel trust, in which
he said:
mo insidious sneaking propaganda
of high-brow or low-brow apostles Of
ruin could put in the popular mind so
much poison as refusal by such a cor
poration as yours to do it's part toward
solving great and difficult problem,
reviving industry and business activi-
ties, and promoting prosperity and the
peace and happiness of humanity"
Williams was referring to the way
in which the high prices fixed for steel
have thrown wet blanket on building
projects and manufacturing in gen.
eral.

WHEAT SURPLUS LOW.

The wheat surplus for export and
carry-over Of the United States and
Canada is 165 100000 bushels, accord.
ing to estimates of the bureau of mar
kets. based on official and commercial
reports, it was said at the department
of agriculture. Tho combined crop of
the two countries and the carry-overs
from the 1919 crop was placed at L.
163,00O,000 bushels. The surplus esti-
mate, it was explained, took into &C.
count bread and seed requirements
and export clearances from seaports to
February 21st.
According to some French esti-
mates, department officials said, the
exporting countries now have 293,OOO,-
600 bushels of surplus wheat, while
the import requirements of countries
that can buy wheat are 100000 900
bushels, leaving a net surplus of 49,

VANDERBILT GOES TO RUSSIA.
Washington Vanderlip, the capital
list who became prominent over night
Russian government, has again re-.
turned to Russia.
No reasons for the visit have been
given to the public. One guess is that
because of the expulsion of the Rus
sian ambassador there is no one here
to talk Russian business. Another is
that Vanderlip may be taking with
h ~
and suggestions for American bust
ness as to how they would like to car
ry on trade in a, roundabout way.
