Farm Housing Loan Program Expanded An expanded farm housing loan program designed to speed up farm building construction and improvement as well as act as an additional anti-recession measure was announced this week by Seth M. Kellam, Farm ers Home Administration Coun ty Supervisor for Pierce county. Now an owner of a farm in agricultural production and on which the operator plans to pro duce at least $400.00 worth of farm commodities for sale or home use may qualify for the 4 percent long-term housing loan provided that he .meets other standard eligibility re quirements. Formerly, an eligible applicant had to own a farm that produc ed a more substantial part of the operator’s annual cash income. Borrowers may use loan funds to build, improve, or repair farm houses or other essential farm buildings, and to provide water for farmstead and household use. Mr. Kellam said that in addit ion to financing major construct ion, the loan funds can help meet other needs for farm and farm hame modernization such as adding bathrooms, utility rooms, better kitchens, and many other improvements to the home as well as to farm service build ings. While tenants and farm laborers are not eligible, the own er may borrow to do construction work or make improvements for them. , The loans are made to farm owners who need credit to fin ance building improvements or repairs, but find that adequate credit is not available through banks or other regular credit channels. The interest rate is 4 percent and loans may be a mortized over periods up to 33 years. The local office of the Farm ers Home Administration is lo cated in Room 303, Third Floor, Old Ware County Hospital Build ing in Waycross. This office serves Brantley, Charlton, Pierce and Ware counties. Personals The Nahunta Garden Club will hold a Flower Show on April 26 at the high school lunchroom.
