"CHEAP" MONEY ON LAND JUew I'VdiTnI I'artii lnnm Hanks Prob ably f lor IfcMlelit Ut Went llinn Any Other Hertioti It la generally expred that the es tablishment of the new Federal Farm Loan Hanks wilt brlnK down tho in lerest rates on nmnty tni'tied on real fRtale In (ho 1'itltt ,S'hih.

At one of the Knrm lyoan Itank hearings recently held thruosH the rountry, a farmer was, asked what mto of Intercut farmer lioped to get toney for under the Federal I,oan Act. lie mentioned four per cent. One of the members of the board, Mr. Quick, made this Htateinenl: "The best that the Federal Farm I .nun Hanks can offer you In money at coi.t. What that. coHt may be we annot pay. The original fTKn.OOO for which the district farm loan bank la capitalized would eiy mum bo ex hutiHted were it not pOMSiblo to Ihhui1 bonds and thus -' tire additional funds for the making of further Inana These bonds must fce mild to invest or.'t in the open market tii competition with othrrs bidding for the hho of the Inventor's money. The rate of in terest which the. bond will draw must depend upon tlie commeniat rate at which the investor la willing to let his money go Into uho. This may bo four or even live per cent. In addition to the I nt crust paid on the bond enough moro nnul be charged the farmer to pay the cost of trans acting the business." Where money can now be secured on land at from four to Ave per cent, it does not appear that there will be much benefit derived In the way of reduced interest rates by farmers and land owners who borrow money on real estate. The. principal benefit to them will probably be from the long time with privilege of making partial payments at their option. Undoubtedly the land owners of the west, where internal rates on real estate loans are higher will be bene fitted more than. Many companies that loan money on real estate do not rome far west of the Missouri river. They remember the stories of finan cial reverses in the early days of thl country, and have not yet learned that a new area has dawned In the central west. The land of this coun try, as its proped appraisement, furn ishes as goo'l security as the land:: farther east at the prices placed upon it, probably better; but tbo mone lenders of the east have not yet learned that fact. Hy getting the It. S. government back of the paper ns'eived thru the Federal Farm Loan Hanks, it will sell as readily and at as low rates of In terest aa that on land farther east came to a stop.
