Under the rural credit bill which the President signed with two pens, the United Sta will capitalize land bank which wiil advance money to farmers throughout the country at a rate of interest for which a maximum is pegged without | regard to the condition of the money ! market, and on terms which are preferential as compared with the ceneral terms of credit in the banking system of the country. Presumably loans will not be made bevond the security of farmland offered by the borrower, although the history of farm mortgages throughout the country, under the control of private financial “enterprise, is not reassuring on_that score. But if government capital, which is to be nou-dividend earning, is properly available to finance the ambition of the farmer, the city dweiler who may be a small shop-keeper, a manufacturer on | small scale, or merely a houserolder, with or without his garden patch to qualify in the agricultural ranks, has a right to expect the same favor and like terms of credit from the govern- ment treasury.
