any part Of the globe more appealing
from the standpoint of scenic wonder
than the mid Columbia section of the
Cascades. He characterizes the Co
lumbia River Highway as a marvellous
example of what man can do in max
ing available the beauties Of Gods

declare that the story of q white coyote
bringing an open winter has been dis
proved. Col. and Mrs. Dowd, while
motoring home in early November
sighted an animal, which they took to
be an albino coyote, galIoping in front
of their automobile. II the Indian
theory. about the white wolf is correct,
say Col. and Mrs. Dowd, then they
must have seen somebody's collie.

Farm Loan Department Plans
Are Approved by Commission

Bismarck, Jan 3.-Plans for the
new loans. to be issued by the Farm
Loan department OF the Bank of
North Dakota under the management
Of Mr. Wilbert B. Default have been
approved by the Industrial commits
SION. At Mr.. Defaults suggestion. the
new loans will be upon 4 twenty-six-
cages being written to pay six and
half per Cent interest and one and a
half per cent principal the first year,
with the interest remaining at the
Same rate but decreasing In volume
and the principal payment increasing
in volume each year so that the an
nual payments are eighty dollars on
each thousand dollars loaned.
Mr.. Defaults original conception
was for thirty-four year amortiza-
ton plan. with, beginning principal
payment OF one per cent. He founu
himself estopped. however. by one Of
the peculiar provisions of the Farm
Loan law which provides that no
bonds issued under the law shall ex-
tend more than thirty years from the
time OF the passage or the act. AS the
present farm loan act became law,
February Is. 1879. all the bonds Is
sued under its provisions must be paid
off by February IS. 194s. or twenty
seven years from the end OF next
month. All OF the mortgages. there
fore, accepted by Mr.. Default must
be upon Easis Of payments which
will be completed before the termtna-
ton OF the bonds. The twenty-gix
year basis will make 1t possible to
make loans AL through, 1922 anG stu
have maturing paynents fall due 1e-
fore the end OF tho period for which
bonds can be issued Mr.. DeNault
considers IT. unfortunate that the law
prevents the issuance OF loans upon 2
one per cent nnortl1ation plsn a. II
would have made the payments easier
fesafile farmers to meet.
