Jackson Farmers
Save Over SB,OOO
On Farm Program
'~ COMMERCE — According to re
cent announcements and reieasing
of figures the refinancing of debts
through the new Farm Credit Aa
ministration has saved Jackson
county farmers more than SB,OOO a
vear on interest alone. These fi
gures were released from Wash
ington,
Over $259,000 of farm debts with
interest rates that average 7.4 per
cent a year have been refinanced
with long term rortgage loane
carrying low interest rates. Mamy
of the interest rates are 5 per cem,
or less per year,
The figureg show that the Com
merce National Loan association
has been a big factor in making
these long-term mortgages avail
able at a low rate. The adminis
tration guarantees loans to the
Federal Land bank. j
The statement from the Farm |
Credit administration points out
that a farmer who gets a Federar‘
Land Bank loan through his locar
National Farm Loan association
while the 4 per cent interest ratei
lasts will not have to pay a higher
rate during the entire term of the
loan, which may be paid during as
long a term ag 30 years.
