llow to Loud Potato Cars
Approximately 75 per cent of all
cars prepared to protect potato ship
ments from cold during 'winter
months nro either lined or loaded In
correctly, says tho United States De
partment of Agriculture bulletin.
"Lining and Loading Cars of Pota
toes for Protection from Cold,"
Protection from cold depends .largely
upon u constant current of warm air
from tho heater directly to tho coil
ing, spreading between tho colling
and the top potatoes thenco thru
openings at tho opposite end of tho
load down to tho space beneath the
false floor, and from there under tho
false floor to tho heater again. Tho
bulletin explains methods of lining
and loading potatoes in tho four prin
cipal types of cars with heaters and
refrigerator cars, without heators,
under favorablo shipping conditions.
Tho bulletin may bo obtained free

How Low Rates Are Secured
for Farmers.
'Tho federal land banks nro not pei
mlttcd to chargo nuy rate of interest
except Mint which the board may pre
scribe, and tho rate of Interest which
tho fnrmer is required to pay may nev
er exceed ono per cent lu excess of tho
rate upon tho bonds. - -
"If they can sell tho bonds nt threo
per cent, tho farmer under tho tenna
gets the benellt; ho gets It nt four
and In addition to that pays ono per
! cent for amortization, which would
1 muko tho cost of tho money flvo per
cent, Including nil of tho expenses of
tho operation of tho bnnk and tho ono'
per cent for amortization.
"Now tho value of tho loan to tho
farmer Is very great. Not only la ho
assured of his credit for thlrty-threo
or thirty-six years, If ho wants it, but
ho knows that nobody can forco tho
earlier payment of tho principal of tho
lonn except upon his own default. On
the r 'tcr hnnd, If ho happens to bo
pruspeirus and finds that ho has yarned
enough money to pay tho loan before
maturity, ho is allowed to pay It in full
or any pnrt, nt uny time after Ivo
years.'
