SENIOR CLASS IN AGRICULTURE
VISITS FEDERAL FARM LOAN
BANK OF BALTIMORE

Under the direction of Prof. G. L
Schuster the Agricultural Glass OF
the University of Delaware made 2
recent visit to the Federal Loan
Bank of Baltimore. This bank is
housed in a building of it's own
valued at 100000 and now has
business amounting to $4,000, ,OOO
The bank is supervised by the Gov
ernment and is designed to make
loans to Farmers, loans are made I'D
to 500 of the value of the land plus
2O%0 of the permanent insurable i'm
prOVements, at the rate of 61a%5 in
terest 10 of which is applied on the
principal to pay off the debt. The
loan may run for 35 years but may
be paid sooner if desired. Farmers
may borrow money to buy land for
agricultural purposes, to pay off
mortgages, to purchase seed, fertil-
izers, live stock of farm equipment
and to make improvements on land
or buildings.
Each borrower pays the cost of
appraisements, fee for abstract of
title and other initial costs. There
are no renewal charges and at the
end of 35 years the debt is automati-
cally wiped out by the payment of
the 675% annually. No one farmer
may borrow more than $4,000. Each
borrower is required to place So of
his loan $3.50 out of every $1,000
with the bank as stock in the bank.
This stock pays a dividend to the
farmer during the life of his loan
and is returned in full to the bor-
rover when the mortgage is cancel
led. 1t is an organization from which
you may borrow money and receive
dividends at the same time. The far
mers business is such that he needs

Of the bank state that if the small
number of loans made in Delaware
