Report Land Loan
The committee appointed by a re
cent meeting of interested citizens
of the valley to confer with the fed
eral land hoard, which passed
through here recently, reported as
follows upon their conclusions con
cerning the local situation after con
ference with the federal board:
Small I'nits Fuvored,
As to adaptability of the larger or
county unit as against the a smaller
county unit such as the school dis
trict., etc., the prevailing opinion
seemed to he that while the county
units might in some instances he
started at first, yet that the size of
the unit should be smaller, based on:
1. Community intterests, such as
nationality as a German or Swedish
settlement.
2. Local interests, such as fruit
growers of Griffin Creek or alfalfa
men of Central Point, or stoekmen
of Applegate.
On Orchard Values.
As to Increased size of loan that
might be allowed on land In orchard
because of that fact, the board con
siders an orchard as similar to any
crop and in nowise a part of the land
value, nor do they deem It to be an
Improvement upon which 20 per cent
could be loaned. The only crumb of
comfort is the intimation that the in
come taken from the land would be
considered as a chief factor in esti
mating the value of the land. Be
cause of this, Rogue River valley
lands that are similar to Iowa land

as to productiveness when pianted in
crops such as alfalfa, corn, grain,
etc., because of their being also
adapted to and in fruit in a fruit
area, might possibly be considered as
worth not $200 to $250 per acre,
but $300 or $400 per acre.
I 'elation of Illicit bin.
As to irrigation in relation to loan
values, it was the opinion of the
board that It would be precluded
from making loans on government
projects, such as the Klamath proj
ect, and they proposed having con
gress enact legislation allowing its
own lien for water to become second
to any farm loans made.
On the other hand, the purchase
of water from private sources, such
as locally from the Rogue River Ca
nal Company, was deemed to In no
way affect loans, but if it Increased
the income of the land It would in
crease the value of the land for loan
purposes and make possible a larger
loan than otherwise.
Loans Made Conservatively.
It seems to he the consensus of
opinion that these lorv.s would be
made very conservatively and that it
would likely result in second mort
gages running for a shorter time be
ing placed by banks and individuals.
In fact, Massachusetts is amending
her state loan law so as to loan in
this way. Thus a piece of land worth
$210 mirht have a forty-year farm
loan and a second mortgage running
five or ten years, the security for
which would be growing better each
year as the principal of the govern
ment loan was paid along with the
interest.
It was also the impression gained
by your committee that while the
local loan committee would be quite
a large factor, yet that the conserva
tive influence of the local loan asso
ciation having to indorse all loans,
the 10 per cent liability of each bor
rower for the other fellows' loans
and the rigid inspection of appraisers
of the land bank Itself would all tend
toward quite conservative loans.
Immediate Effects.
As to whether or not the Immedi
ate effects will be felt In this valley,
the committee is divided, some hav
ing in mind the requirements of state
school and savings funds, looking for
refunding of these, and the more con
servative private loans, thus indirect
ly benefitting the valley. Others,
having in view the fact that the loans
are all, as it were, indorsed by the
whole neighborhood, believe that the
indorsement of the local association
plus the pledge of 10 per cent of the
amount of each borrower's loan and
the various safeguards, will make for
the loaning of money under at least
as favorable terms as are now possi
ble. They also look for lower rates
of interest and believe there will be

enough money available to take care
of real farmers and the legitimate
needs.
Therefcre, while the district hanks
will probably not be organized until
after the new year, the committee
suggests the starting of the prelim
inary work, and to that end make
the following recommendation:
Proposed Districts.
That the county he divided for the
present into the following districts:
1. Eagle Point, north and east,
including upper Rogue river, Butte
creek.
2. Sams valley, Gold Hill and con
tiguous territory.
3. Applegate and tributaries.
4. Ashland and vicinity.
5. Talent and vicinity.
C. East of Phoenix and along Bear
creek and southeast of Medford.
7. West of Phoenix, southwest
.Medford to be called Griffin creek.
8. West of Central Point, includ
ing northwest of Medford, etc., as
Willow Springs.
9. Central Point and vicinity.
10. Bear creek and east of Cen
tral Toint to Cticky.
That a committee of one be ap
pointed in each district to hasten this
work by securing the co-operation of
his neighbors.
That after the petitions are all
prepared and prior to their being
sent in to the district land bank for
action, that a joint meeting of the
representatives of these several pro
posed local units meet to go over
boundaries in detail to ascertain
what, if any, changes are needed to
make them successful, as it can be
done easier before a charter is grant
ed the local organization.
Respectfully submitted,
RURAL CREDITS' COMMITTEE.

E. H. Hurd, Secretary.

been aroused by the announcement
that Jess Wlllard and Frank Gotch

herds of elephants, its playful, mis
chievous monkeys, its camels, horned
lorses, yaks, zebras, Hons and tigers

that have been gathered from tho
ends of the earth. Especially for the
children is attention cnlled to Toy
land, where, surrounded by the be
loved figures of Mother Goobo rhyme,
the babies of the circus await the ac
quaintance of the babies of human
ity. Babies of the animal kingdom

France, to the baby Hons from Afri
ca and the bnby elephants from India
all as glad to see the children as
