Wallace said. was the greatest thing
done for the producer by Congress.
and he explained it in detail. The act,
he said. is in two parts. The first es-
tablished a system OF intermediate
credit banks, each with n capital of
SJ,000.000. which will discount loans
made by farmers and ranchmen at
their own banks or with the Farm
Loan Bank. The other part of the act
authorizes the establishment of indl-
vidual live stock loan banks. with n
minimum capital of S2JO,O00. These
banks will also discount notes. the
only difference between the two being
that in the first the rate of interest
will be set by the government at as
low q figure as. possible, while in the
ether the current rate of interest or
the rate allowed by the state in which
it is located will be charged.
Fight Weevil Here.
1t has often been the complaint
Secretary Wallace said. that what the
farmer needs is better process and not
more credit. More credit. however, he
said. will bring better prices. for the
reason that prices are brought down
by the producer having 10 dump his
products on the market at any price
because he cannot get the credit to
tide him over until the prices arc
right. Under the old system. the pro-
ducer has not been able to borrow for
greater length than nine months.
Loans of as long MS three years will
be possible with the Establishment OF
the new banis.
One Of the most interesting an
nouncements made by Secretary Wal
lace was that the Florida method OF
boil weevil determination would be
developed in this part of the country.
\ small area is to be planted in the
vicinity of San Antonio in the near
future and under the direction OF
trained government men the Florida
method tried out. As explained briefly.
the Florida method is an earlier and
smaller application of poison. The
usual method of poisoning has been 80
expensive that it did not pay on land
which produced less than n bale to
the acre.
Mr.. Wallace is making this tour
of the agricultural districts Of the
United States. he said. in order Il
keen in touch with the people and
their needs. and also to impress oil
the employees of the department the
absolute necessity OF keeping expense
II a minimum. The President. he said
''as issued orders that the department
shall not exceed its budget. He ex-
dressed himself MS being very much
pleased with the general outlook in
Texas and especially complimcnted
