U. D. Powell. Roseburg. secretary -treasurer of National Farm Loan asso ciations serving the counties, an nounced this week. Legislation adopted recently by congress and approved hy Presi dent Itoosevelt fixes the interest rate on the next two years' install ments oa both loans, with some few exceptions, at 3J per cent an nually. Land bank loans tniide since 1 II 17 have heen written at varying lates of interest, but aver age about ; per cent. Land bank commissioner loans made since 1!i33 have been written at a 5 per cent rate. The 31 per cent rate on land bank loans. It was explained, is a continuation of a rate that has been been! in effect since 1933. The new rate on commissioner loans trims another one-half of 1 per cent froni the interest churge, a special rule oj" 4 per cent having been in effect on these loans for some time.

Italian! r. 33 iM2J)3ooo Facts That Concern You WHAT IS MALT?. and how is it used in making beer and ale ? Answer: Brewers' malt is barley that has had its starches mod ified. The barley is first permitted to "sprout" by the addition of mois ture. At the right instant, the growth is checked by heat and the sprouts are removed. What remains is malt ... the es sential base of all good beer and ale. Every step in the brewing of good beer and ale has been taught by centuries of experience. Today, amaz ingly expert brewers using only BEER.. .a beverage of moderation told the Oregon vocational associa tion: He said a depression migration of young men from cities had over manned farms.
