Finally I have arranged with one of the largest loaning companies (a company that has $85,000,000 loaned to the farmers of the West) for a real Rural Credit loan based on a 20-year amortized plan. 20 equal payments of but little more than current in terest pays off your entire debt. You pay no commissions, choose your own date of payment and pay at your own bank. You can pay any amount of your loan at any time- This plan figures you a saving of nearly 3 per cent over the usual farm loan made heretofore in this county.
