LAND BANK PAYMENTS
BETTER THIS YEAR

SPOKANE Payments made by
Washington. idaho, Oregon and
Montana farmers to the Spokane
Federal Land bank in September,
October and November on matur-
ing and delinquent loan INSTALL
ments totaled $1,545,648, compared
with 1888 $50 for the corresponding
quarter a year ago, a gain of 81
per cent.
Current installments due in this
period were approximately the same
in both quarters.
The greatly improved showing, it
was pointed out by o. H. Junod,
bank treasurer, wildly indicates
the substantial progress made by
the borrowers in catching up on
their Indebtedness in the liquida-
ton of their long-term mortgages,
and is a gratifying reflection of the
better position OF agriculture in
this region.
He stressed the showing as indi-
eating firmer bottom had been
put under farm investment and
land values through the liquidation
of thousands of frozen mortgages
in the Pacific Northwest.
