With the insect season at hand,
a recent news letter Of the Inter-

cludes some interesting references
by Dr., Deane B. Judd and gives the
color perception powers of insects,

In this connection. DR. Judd pre-

gave major credit to E. L. Hardy,
author of "Reactions of Certain Flies

Loan League Cites
Steady Payments on
Savings Mortgages
Debt-Free Ownership
Revealed in 40 Census
Seen as Result

One of every seven of the free
of-debt owner-occupiedh homes in the
United States which show up in the
Bureau Of the Census report was
paid out of debt during the 1905
oy satisfaction of a mortgage held
by a savings, building and loan
association or cooperative bank.
This is the estimate of the Home
Building and Home Owning Com
mittee of the United States Savings
and Loan League. which says that a
steady program of keeping up con-
tractual payments on loans was pur-
sued throughout the trying thirties'
by hundreds of thousands of families
and was partially responsible for
the high level of debt-free owner
ship which showed up in the 1910
census.
John F. Scott. St. Paul, chairman
Of the league committee. SAYS that
on conservative estimates at least
three-q quarters of million homes
were paid out of debt to savings and
loan institutions during the 1905.
This was the result of the great
lending volume of these associations
IN the l920s, when the home BUYERS
and builders signed up to pay off in
anywhere from to 12l2 years.
month by month. In the 1905 the
substantial number of these bor-
rowers who kept up their payments
according to schedule became debt
free owners.
The Bureau report on mortgage
characteristics of the country in
1910 showed that SAT per cent of
the oWner-occupied homes in the
country were free and clear of debt.
and that those which were mort
gagged had only an average 52.4 per
cent loan in proportion to the value
OF the property. The league COM
mittee saw in this latter develop
ment the results of the emphasis on
monthly amortization of home loans
by majority of lenders in the
1905, following the savings. build
ing and loan practice Of l12 years.
