Amendment To Loan Act
Beneficial Says Secretar
Of Local Assiciation
Benefits brought about by an
amendment to the Federal Farm
Loan act recently enacted by
Congress, and effective July 1,
will interest all farmers and
ranchers in this locality, ac
cording to Lyle P. Dierks, secre
tary-treasurer of the Elkhorn
Valley National Farm Loan As
sociation at O’Neill, Nebr.
"This new legislation per
mits the Federal Land banks to
loan up to 65 per cent of the nor
mal agricultural value of farms
and ranches,” said Mr. Dierks.
‘From the time the land bank
system was organized in 1917 up
to the present, the Federal Land
banks were limited to a loan of
fifty per cent of the appraised
normal value of the land, plus
twenty per cent of the permanent
improvements. Land Bank Com
missioner second-mortgage lunds
were used to take care of any bor
rower’s requirements over and
above the maximum which the
land bank could loan.
“The new law will allow many
farmers and ranchers to borrow
the full amount they need from
the, Federal Land bank at the low
rate of four per cent without
using Commissioner funds..’’
Mr. Dierks emphasized that the
new legislation did not change
the land bank’s policy of lending |
on the basis of the normal long-j
term earning power of the farm
or ran (ill.
“The land banks have found,
from experience, that they can
safely loan on the sixty-tive per
cent basis. In addition to the
advantage of the four per cent
rate, the borrower has his land
loan with only one cre’ditor,” he
said
Under the new law, Land Bank
Commissioner loans will be con
tinued until July 1, 1946, and can
be made, as in the past, up to 75
per cent of the normal agricul
tural value of the farm or ranch..
Veterans, however, may borrow
Commissioner funds at four ppr
cent if the loan is guaranteed
under the C. I. Bill of Rights. ,
Secretary-treasurer D ie,rk s
pointed out that the new law per-,
mits the Federal Land baryta to,
purchase Land Bank Commis
sioner loans which have been rer,
duced to a point where “they cun
easily bo refinanced with a lower
rate land bank loan.”
He explained that better scr
vice to new loan applicants is
now possible through a simplifi
cation of procedure which mater
ially reduces loan closing time.

Patrol Traffic Tips
Two Nebraska Safety Patrol
men met a model A Ford road
ster .equipped with side curtains,
driving all over the highway.
The two patrolmen stopped the
car and expecting to find an in
toxicated driver, asked the driver
to get out ojf the car. They
could hardly believe their own
eyes, when not alone the driver
but also five other boys climbed
out of the car. The driver was
sober but he lacked the proper
control of the car.
The old saying “Two’s com
pany—three’s a crowd” is partic
ularly appropriate to front seat
riding. In emergency the driver
needs freedom of action for the
brakes and also free arm move
ment for controlling the steer
ing wheel.

Help Ta 4-H Clubs
More Banker
Bankers of Nebraska who have
cooperated with 4-H Club boys
and girls for several years past
in connection with the annual
4-H Fat Stock Show in Omaha,
■will be asked to aid the young
stock raisers in financing a new
venture this year.
Heretofore the bankens have
sent tfree a yearly subscription
for the official 4-H paper to the
group leaders and have direct
ly financied many Ak-Sar-Ben
show contestants in buying and
teecnng calves and pigs lor tne
show. This year, something new
has been added. The Union Stock
Yards Company of Omaha, in re
sponse to requests from club
leaders and county agents, will
hold a calf sale to make better
grades of calves more readily
available to 4-H boys and girls.
This sale is planned for October
31st . and Nqy«|T>ber 1st at the
South Omaha yards with about
5,000 fine selected calves on sale.
This new plan will not only save
time and travel for county agents
ad 4-H leaders in buying calves,
but should tend to improve the
quality of stock raised and shown
at the annual fall shows.
The Nebraska State Bankers
Association will urge its mem
bers to cooperate in financing
purchases of calves at this sale by
4-H boys and girls.
The 18th Annual Ak-Sar-Ben
4-H Club Fat Stock Show has
been set this year for October 3,
4, and 5th at the Union Stock
Yards in South Omaha and it is
expec'ed that 500 or more 4-H
Club boys and girls will have
entries of beef and swine for this
event. The Ak-Sar-Ben commit
tee will shortly send out its an
nouncements, together wtth the
lists of prizes to be offered.
