SALEM, Or., July 5. (Special) Mrs. O. C. Cardwoll, of Ilend, lieud of the grange there, recently wrote to the Desert Land Board protesting against the issuance of state highway bonds ahead of rural credits bonds. declaring that farmers are in need of the money for development of their farms. She also urged the point that the rural credits amendment received a majority 30,000 greater than the good roads amendment. An Investigation of the status of the rural credits fund, in the light of Mrs. Cardwell's lcttor, seems to Indicate that there Is little fear that disposal of the highway bonds will cause the farmers of the state any embarrassment. On June 8 the State Land Board, which has charge of the administra tion of the rural credits fund, found Itself with $250,000 in rural credits money on band. This fund was raised by sale of bonds to bankers of the state who hold state funds as depositories. The board was unable to dispose of the bonds to bondbuy ers, making ineffectual efforts to secure par-bids. The board has con sistently refused to sell these bonds at less than par, as a sale at less than par would automatically In crease the interest to the borrower. Deschutes Takes Little. The $260,000 raised from the banks,' after personal importunity, was distributed among the various counties of the state. $6,000 to the 'county, with instructions that 60 days would be allowed in making such loans. With nearly a month elapsing since that time, but two counties, Harney and Wheeler, have taken up their 'allotment. Deschutes county has had loans' amounting to but $900 ap proved out of the $6,000 allotted to it. Apparently, from the reports re ceived at the office of the State Land Board, there . is no very heavy de mand for rural credits money from the farmers of the state. New Problem Created. But the land board also is placed in another peculiar position by this "rapidly as was at first supposed they would. When bonds are disposed of the would such sal -8 reflect upon the credit of tho state, but they would force an added rate of interest onto the borrowers. Under tho act If bonds are sold less than par the rato of Interest to borrowers meets a cor responding increase. For instance, if bonds sold for 99, or 1 per cent less than par, the interest to bor rowers would have to be raised to 6 per cent, or 1 per cent more than Is the ordinary rate of interest con templated by the amendment. GmhI Ktuitls Noetic!. For those reasons the State Land Hoard will make no effort, It Is un derstood, to try to beat the State Highway Commission to tho disposal of bonds.' "In addition," stated one mem ber of the board, "good roads are about as essential to tho fartuors' welfare as loans. But whenever the farmers show a disposition to need this money we will endeavor to see that It is forthcoming."

The board is com pelled to pay 4 per cent interest on these bonds from that date. A great share of the money has been lying idle since June 1 and hca been roll ing up interest not offset by Interest to be received from borrowers. ' 'Consequently it is safe to say that the State Land Board will make no 'particular effort to sell any great 'quantity of rural credits bonds until try, has made the statement that the big boom in America's tea con sumption may be due to the spread of the prohibition wave. In 1916, according to Mitchell, America drank- 109,500,000 pounds of tea and is consuming more of the beverage every day. Tea from Ja pan is the most popular In America. Forty-two and two-tenths per cent of the tea America drinks comes 'sucb time as there seems to be a gen-! from this country and Formosa., And era! demand among the farmers for over one pound of tea drunk per the use of that money. There still capita in the United States, says js a large chunk of the school fund , miicnen. available to borrowers, but this fund at 6 per cent seems to be as much more in demand than the rural cred its fund at 6 per cent. This is large ly due, it is stated, to the added re strictions thrown about the loans made under the rural credits amend ; ment.- The board also is wedded to a pol icy of not allowing any rural credits 'bonds to be sold at less than par. - Not only, members of the board state.
