so you can pay them when your
income drops.
If credit needed is for short
term credit, here again the mat
ter of type of credit and time
needed for this credit comes up.
Short term credit used by farm
ers has tripled since 1910, and 3
years ago passed long term farm
mortgage loans for the first time
in history. This is due to the in
creased costs of farming and ran
ching, and also for labor saving
equipment, better breeding stock
and the higher standard of liv-
ing enjoyed by most farm people
now than they previously had.
Here again there are several
danger points to consider. Care
full credit can work for you" If
the short term credit is being
used to get an improved job done
that will pay off, it is probably
all right.
1t is time to stop, look and lis
ten if the answer is "Yest" to
these questions:
/. Have I shouldered more
debts than l can repay?
2. Am l eating into my capital
to pay my creditors?
3. Have l spent all my antici-
pated profit in advance without
saving something for one or even
more bad years?
4. Do | have my loans scatter
ed among several creditors with
the chance that some of them
might put the squeeze on me for
fear one of the others might beat
them to it?
5. Am | tied to a creditor who
can't stand by me if the going
gets rough?
6. Am l borrowing for an un-
profitable operation?
Even though there are danger
points in short term credit now
is no time for farmers to sell
themselves short. Short term Gre
dit wisely used is one of the doors
to better farming and better liv-
ing and can help you to operate
successfully under today's high
cash outlay requirements.
Here are some shock absorbers
that we in Production Credit have
found can cushion the short term
debt loan:
/. Be sure the loan is on the
basis of what can be repaid from
your farm or income.
3 Try to borrow only safe
amount, with an operating mar
gin in reserve for possible bad
crops and price drop.
3. Look over entire years op-
GRAFTON and borrow on this basis,
getting well balanced years Gre
dit.
I. Use the budgeted type loan.
Here you and the lender work
out potential credit needs for a
season or even the entire year,
set up the entire amount on the
books, then draw out the money

The following is the discussion
given by Eugene Robinson, secre-
tary of the Conrad PEA, to
members of the Browning Home
Demonstration club and others
interested in credit at meeting
held at the Agency barracks in
Browning Monday afternoon.
This meeting was sponsored by
the Agency Extension and Credit
divisions and the County Home
Demonstration agent.
A question and answer period
followed the formal discussion:
Sound Credit Practices
"The subject of credit is an inn
portant one as shown by the fact
that over rs per cent of business,
farming, and building of new
houses in the United States is
handled by credit of some terms
and kind. The highest peak of
installment credit was reached
this year in June, when the ag-
gregate total reached the sum of
approximately S1.2 billion per
month. There has been a drop of
nearly quarter since then. Many
economists were worried over
this large increase in inStallment
credit, because while consumers
income remained the highest in
history, the rise in this credit was
no worry, but if overtime pay in
defense plants and other income
in US. should drop, it would con-
stitute a serious problem.
This brings us to the subject
of Sound Credit Practices"
First of all it must be realized
that any type of credit is more
costly than cash. This varies ac-
cording to type of credit used and
length of time credit is to be out
standing. For instance the pur-
chase of an automobile or truck
on conditional sales installment
program has the interest and car
rying charges and insurance add
ed to the amount Of the contract.
Frequently we have found that
cheaper arrangements could have
been made to finance the car.
Second - the type of credit
needed must be considered and
decided upon. For instance if it
is for the building or purchasing
of a house it should be on a long
er period Of time, an amortized
loan.
The fact the purchase of real
estate in general housing,
farms or ranches can be summed
up as follows:
l. Low interest rates for a long
term.
2. Regular payments that cut
down principal as you go.
3. Permission to make extra
payments in good years.
4. Privilege for arranging small
er payments in bad years.
S. A lender who will be in busi-
ness for the life of the loan.
6. Small enough installments

INDIANS OPPOSE TRUST
PROPERTY CONTROL LIFTING

SPOKANE. - Northwest Indi-
ans plan to oppose the removal
of federal jurisdiction over their

secretary of the Affiliated Tribes
Of the Northwest, said this week.
He said representatives of the
nearly 10000 Indians of the Col
vile, Couer d'Alene, Spokane,
Nez Perce, Yakima, Flathead and
Kootenai tribes made the deci-
sion at a meeting at Spokane.
Indians pay taxes on income
from work, but contend, George
added, that treaties protect them
from payment of taxes on income
from trust property.

Robinson Gives Enlightening Talk
On Correct Credit Practices

for certain jobs as you need it.
You also make repayments as you
sell products.
S. You pay interest only for the
actual time you have the money.
6. Be sure the short term and
long term credit are in balance
for the farm. If not, maybe you
can shift short term to lower in
terest carrying long term.
We have another yardstick we
apply in setting up PEA. budget
loans that can we'll be applied
to each individual case when you
are considering sound credit. Ask
yourself if this credit is to be u.s.
ed for a necessity, need or a
want.
A necessity is something you
must have to do the best possible
farming job, such as seed, a good
bull, labor or essential equip
ment. Credit is justified.
A need is something you could
use but can get along without.
Perhaps a new machine you
would like, although the old one
is giving good service. Borrow
for needs only if you are in such
good shape that repayments are
no worry.
A want is something that would
be nice but not profitable. In this
instance you had better wait un-
til you have the cash.

eral Land Bank which was or
ganized in 1917 and has been
making long term mortgage
loans to farmers and ranchers for
SO years, and the Production
Credit association which is cele.
brating its goth anniversary in
February, 1854.
Right now the subject of sound
credit is vitality important in our
business due to the severe drop
in livestock prices and income of
farmers as whole caught in the
price cost squeeze.
| have enjoyed the opportunity
of being here with you today and
discussing credit with you and
hope we have touched on some
topics that have been of interest
to you.

NOTES FROM WASHINGTON

Sales by the nations depart
ment stores slumped during Oc'
tober, after running ahead of last
year for the first nine months
of 1858, according to a Federal
Reserve Board report. They were
down an average of seven per
cent from the volume of a com
parable four week period during
October, 1852. From the start OF
the year until October oath, how
ever, sales were two per cent
above the same period of 1852.
"a Food Prices
The U. S. Agriculture Depart
ment predicts that retail food
prices in 1854 will average close
to this years level with farmers
probably receiving about the
same share of the consumers
food dollar - an estimated As
cents, as in 1858. Food supplies
about as large as in 1858 are in
prospect for 1854, the department
said.
Cost Of Living Up
The cost of living set another
new high record for last month,
according to the Labor Depart
ment's Bureau of Labor SstatiS-
tics, which announced that its
consumer price index reached
1852 in mid-September, rise
of two tenths of one per cent
over the record August level. This
was the seventh straight month
ly increase.
Air West Point
The Air Force has announced
that it is ready to set up a West
Point of the Air as soon as Con-
gress gives it's consent. A curri-
culum has been drafted and 9th
er details worked out, to be put
into operation as soon as author
ization is given. Seven possible
locations of the academy have al
ready been selected "a in Tex
do dIld ollS SdSh III llld,
Colorado, Indiana and North Car
olina.
Farmers Income
Prospects are that the nations
farmers will wind up 1858 with
total net income billion dol
lars less than last year, according
to the Agriculture Department.
1t estimated that the farmers
net income for the calendar year
would be $12,5O0,O0O,OOO - a de-
crease of seven per cent from
1852 income. This drop, in the
face of a record high volume
of farm marketings, is due to
considerably lower prices.
Building Pay
The Bureau of Labor Statistics
reports that building trades work
ers we're earning an average of
S2.71 an hour on October l, which
was 10 cents an hour above the
level at the start of this year.
