Loans Will be
Made on Farm
Stored Grains

Loans on farm-stored grain effec-
tive Immediately, will be made by
Farmers Union Terminal Association
to growers in North Dakota and Mon
tana at one half of one cent per bu-
shell per month, plus inspection fees,
NJ. w. Thatcher, general manager, an
bounced today.
"Loans on farm-stored grain pro-
vides the cheapest method by which
a farmer may hold wheat in the coun-
try" Mr.. Thatcher said. "The cost
of a loan on 1000 bushels stored on
a farm for a period of eight months,
including the IS warehouse inspec-
ton fee, totals $45. This is based on
wheat at SO cents a bushel at the To-
cal country station on which a 70
per cent loan is available, making
the loan 40 3-5 cents a bushel or $406
A loan of the same amount for the
same period on a country elevator
warehouse receipt, $1,000. The mini
mum period for figuring farm stor-
age loan costs is three months.
"The one-half cent a month per
bushel charge on a farm-stored grain
loans includes the insurance, fidelity
bond, interest and all charges except
the handling charges at the grain ell
evator or loading station.
"Loans on almost 1000, 900 bushels
of grain were made by the Farmers
Union Terminal Association in North
Dakota and Montana in 1929. 1t was
the first time in history that such a
loan had been made under laws en-.
acted in 1929. Revisions made this
year make the loans more workable.
Lower interest rates resulted from
declines in Intermediate Credit Bank
of st. Paul, interest charges.
Loans on approximately one mil
lion bushels Of grain, mostly wheat,
have been made by the Farmers I'm
ion Terminal Association since Sep
TENDER Goth of this year. Consider
ably more than half of these loans
have been made on grains stored on
farms. The low prices for grain un-
doubtedly hav reduced the volume
but the total has been considered as
more than satisfactory.

in the house.
Three states holding wet referen-

WALSH, LEAVITT Win
OVER OPPONENTS In
THRILLING CAMPAIGN
Young Also Elected, Ander-

ton Still Doubtful

Senator Walsh was reelected to
the United States senate by a trem-
endous majority. With only $50 pre-
cincts in the state to hear from on
Thursday morning he was leading
Judge Galen with nearly $1,000.
Scott Leavitt Wins
Scott Leavitt was returned to o n
gress for the eastern half of Montana
with a small but safe lead over Tom
Stout, his democratic opponent. Scott
Leavitt in this county got more than
twice as many votes as Mr.. Stout.
Close Vote for Justice
Albert Anderson of Billings, repub-
lican candidate for associate justice
Of the supreme court, had pared the
lead of his democratic opponent Judge
John Matthews, down to 1874 votes
with only TIA precincts to hear from.
This included two precincts in Sher-
idan which gave Anderson a further
pairing down Of 48 votes.
Young Safely Across
The reelection of Leonard Young,
republican to the state railroad com-
mission also has been made very ev-
ident by late returns. Leonard Young
promised us a daily train on the
Great Northern if he was able to
hold out for another term, providing
we got out petitions asking for one.
He said he did not want to give this
publicity until after election as he
said the railroads were fighting him
tooth and t~oenail, but said we need
ed a Sunday train, as when that train
was laid off during the war, it was
only a war measure.
