' P"A0T5 BIX The report of (lie loeul rural ured !( committee, which conforrcd wilh the federal IuikI board, is us follows "Your committee appointed to con fer with the federal farm loan bourd, through the effort of its secretary, arranged u ten-minute stop ut Med ford. In addition, your committee went to (iold Hill to meet the train, n nd ii)Hin arriving in Medford, through the kindness of MeHKrH. (jore, Octchcll mid McDonald, the luttcr it former townHniun of two of the eoui niittce, were enabled to make the trip tliroiiffli the orcluird nrea and over the highway, catching the train at Ashland, giving u. lunger opiHirtiinity to your committee and also cnubliiig the federal farm loan board to form a better idea of the local conditions. From thin discussion we prcHcnt the following conclusions: Hnuill I'nlUi Favored As to adaptability of the larger or county unit uh against the Hinallcr county unit such us the school dis trict, etc. The prevailing opinion seemed to bu that while the county units might in senile instances bo started at first, yet that the size of the unit should he hinallcr, based on: 1. Community interests, kucIi lis nationality Ms a German or Swedish Hctllcmcnt. 2. I, cieal interests, hiicIi uh fruit growers of Oriffin Crock or iilfulfu men of Central l'oinl, or stockmen of Applegnlc. .'.'. On Oirluutl Values . Ah to incrcuKcd sizo of loan that might be allowed on land in orchard because of that fact. The hoard consilient an orchard as similar to any crop nnd in no wise a part of the bind value, nor do they deem It to bo an improvement upon which UO per cent could be loaned. The only crumb of eomfort being; the intimation that the income taken from the land would hf eunsidercd ns n chief factor in estjiiiiitlng tho value of tlui land. HcciiuHn of this, Hoguc liver' valley lands that uni similar to Iowa Inml us to productiveness when planted in crops such uh ull'alfd, corn, grain, etc., booaiiso of their be ing also adapted to, and yi; fruit in a fruit nreu, which brings a high return jier acre, 'mili possibly bo consider ed an worth not $200 to $250 per acre, but $;t00 or f 100 per uerc. , notation of Irrigation ' .. Ah to irrigation in Uh relation to loan values. It wnH tho opinion of the board that it would bu precluded from making loans on government projects, such uh the Klamath project, nnd they pro posed having congress enact Icgisla tion allowing its own Hen for water to becomo second to uny farm loans iiiiulc. On the other hand, tho purchase of water from private Hources, such as locally from the Rogue lliver Valley Canal company, was deemed to in no wny affect loans, but if it increased 1 lie income of Ilia bind it would in crease the value of the land for loan purposes and muko possible a turgor loan tlmn otherwise. okiih Made (Vmsorvatlvely It seems to bo consensus of opinion that these loans would bo made very conservatively and that it would like ly result in soeond mortgages running for u shorter time being planed by banks and individuals. In fact, Mas sachusetts is amending her stnte limn , Inw so ns to loan in this way. Thus u piece of land worth t'JIKI might have u forty-yeur farm loan nnd a second mortgage running fivo or ten years, tho security for which would be grow ing belter each year as tlui principal of the government loan was paid ii long with thu interest. It was nlso the impression gained by your eonimittoo that whilo tho lo cal loan committee would be unite u largo factor, yet that the conserva tive influence of the local loan asso ciation having to Indorse nil loans, tho 10 per cent liability of each Isir rower for the other fellows' loans and the rigid inspection of appraisers of the land bank itself, would nil tend toward (iiito conservative loans, Immaliute liffocU As to whether or not the immediate effects will bo felt in this valley tin committee is divided, some having in mind tho requirements of stale school nnd savings funds look for refunding of these and tho more conservative private loans, thus indirectly benefit ing tho valley. Others, having in view tho fact that the loans are all, as it were, indorsed by the whole neighbor hood, believe that tho indorsement of tho local association plus the pledge of 10 oer cent of tho amount of each borrower's loan nnd tho 'various safeguards will muko for the loaning . of money tinder at least as favorable terms as are now possible. They also look for '"wer rates of interest nnd Jelievet (here wi'j be enough money AT Special1 events In the Ladles Do mestic Science Department of the Jackson county fair are as follows: Key.

That n committee of one be ap pointed in each district to hasten this work by semiring the co-opcrntion of his neighbors. That niter the petitions are all prepared and prior to their being sent in to the district laud bank for action, (hat a joint meeting of the represen tatives of thusu several proposed lo ciil units meet to go over boundaries in detail to ascertain what, if any, changes arc needed to make them successful, ns it can be done easier before n charter is grunted the local organization.
