Production
Credit Corp. Aid
to the Farmer
George Thomas, Secretary-Treasurer,
Tells of Means Available to
Secure Finances.
With the approacli of the corn
planting season, many farmers are
writing for information as to how
they can finance their crop expense
for 1934, according to George J.
Thomas, secretary-treasurer of the
South Omaha Production Credit Cor
poration. "I might advise these farmers that
Production Credit is available for fi
nancing crop operations when the
loans are based upon security com
posed of cattle, horses and sheep, as
well as grain," Mr. Thomas explain
ed. "In many communities farmers,
through Production Credit Associa
tions, are adopting the budget plan of
preparing a statement of their needs
for the 1934 season and indicating
at what periods of the year they
will need the funds."
Mr. Thomas indicated that under
the budget plan, with the deferred
withdrawal periods, the farmers can
save considerable interest as the Pro
duction Credit association, after the
lean is approved, keeps available the
funds needed by the farmer so that
he will be sure to have them, but
they do not draw interest until used.
Under this program, a farmer who
raises live stock as well as grain,
can make up his entire budget for
the year. He can list the amount of
money he is going to need for mill
feeds, vaccination costs, seed, labor
costs and other general expense, and
arrange to have the money available
at the time it is needed.
AH Production Credit loans bear
interest at the rate of GVa per cent.
Each borrower becomes a member of
the association and subscribes to 5
per cent of his loan in stock, Mr.
Thomas explained.
WICKED WILLIE
Little Willie Jones was a lov
able lad,
But lie had one besetting
sin
To exaggerate in all the pow
er he had,
With names, acts, and data
thrown in.
His folks had used argument,
pleas, and such things
To shift Wi!lie'3 mind from
its trend,
But finding each effort no con
sequence brings,
Persuasion at length reached
an end.
The slipper, the closet, sending
hungry to bed.
Were each tried in turn but
in vain
For in spite of all ethics, and
what had been said,
He would revert back to normal
again.
With dire tribulation, with long
drawn out sis;h.
At last Mother takes drastic
hands;
With a prayer for aid, and as
sistance to cope
In the contest the problem de
mands. Telling Willie the tala of
Ananias who fell
While relating a marvelous lie;
And of Satan, who carried him
off to his hou?e
Where the bad frlks all go
when they die
Quoth Willie: "I know 'em, an'
I saw 'em today
And both of 'em called me their
pet;
An I told 'em a big lot of lies,
anyway
An Satan ain't grabbed me
yet." "K"
Some cf congress's tax-raising ad
ventures are positively hair-raising
