Each year sees the western people In better position for making Investments, and nothing Is more pupular and thor oughly good than farm mortgages. Tho fact that the big life Insurance com panies have always been heavy Investors proves tho valuo of the farm mortgage, and last year their holdings in these Increased over 14 per cent, while their bond holding increased but half as much. In an article by Stuart W. Wells, In Harper's Weekly, on this subject, ho re cently said: "The farm mortgage loan company shows Its confidence by first investing its own money. After tho sale of the security to the insurance company, savings bank or private Investor, the company continues to look out for the Interests of Its client by seeing that the axes, insurance premiums and interest are promptly paid. It cares for the many little de tails, the neglect yof any one of which by the Inexperienced Investor, who Is not In a position to keep in touch with his loan, might result in considerable annoyance, night hero should be noted tho sharp distinction between the in vestment houso that huya and sells its securities with its own funds, and tho farm-mortgngo broker with little or no financial responsibility. The latter sells the loan on commission and has no In terest further than the collection of his commission on each transaction. ''The form mortgage is no more a sign of lack of prosperity than Is tho note given by the merchant for his. goods or the bonds issued by a railroad or Indus trial corporation. Tho steady growth in the value of farm lands, which will con tinue, with the Increase of population ana the Improvement of methods of farming, gives a farm mortgage a widening margin of safety. Tho end of tho 'homestead era' and tho Increasing ratio between the de mand for and the supply of farm produce In this country assures the Investor that the profits of tho farmer, with which mortgages are paid, are not liable to de crease. ""Having found a farm mortgage com pany worthy of his confidence, the In vestor needs to give little further care to the administration of his funds. All tho details of his investment are looked after in a way which he would scarcely be able to equal. At the same time he is In a singularly strong position with an ab solute contro) over his Investment It he cares to exercise it. He is the sole creditor and holds In his possession the note, the mortgage; and other papers, giving him the key to the simplest form of secured lnvostmont." The growing popularity of the farm mortgage ls likely to result in persons entering the business whose lack of ex perience may result In the making of pocrly Becurcd loans, and it Is not pos sible to emphasize too strongly, In this connection, the Importance to the investor of dealing with a company of long ex perience and high reputation. RAT-PROOFING OF BUILDINGS An Annenl ' from United States l'ulillo Ilrnlth Service Worth lleedlnar. The recent elemental catastrophes the cyclones in the mtddbs west, and the floods in that vast region watered by tho Ohio have destroyed many hundreds of buildings. Here, out of misfortune, much good should come. A timely appeal for the rat-proofing of .'dwellings and Other buildings at present existing, under construction or in contemplation) comes from the United States Public Health service. Those about to erect a new building or repair an old one, whether of frame, brick, rock, concrete or other con struction, may learn from a recent bulle tin issued from Washington what sani tary and economic benefits are to be de rived from permanent rat-proofing; and measures to such ends should be de manded by prospective owners as a part of building contracts. The rat is far too prolific to be exterminated by such agen cies as traps, poisons, gases and the like; these may reduce the number of the ro dents, ,but If there Is food within reach, the surviving rata will have more to eat proportionally, and procreation will be stimulated the more. Rat extermination can be effective only by cutting off the rats' food supply. Tito bulletin contains all necessary information to this end, so far as relates to buildings.- Those already erected can be rat-proofed by the closure of all natural or accidental openings; by being remodeted with material Impervious to rats; by the removal of structures which will give refuge to rats; and by the protection or removal of foods which rata will eat.
