ASKEDJ WEEK Appllcatlona for farm production loans from the Mcdford Crop Pro duction Credit association total 40 ao far thla week, according to Luther J. Deuel, secretary-treasurer. This la a gain of 68 per cent over the pre vloua week, he says. Appllcatlona continue to come In from Coos, Curry, Douglas, Josephine and Jack son counties, which comprise the Medford district with headquarters In the courthouse. The Increase la due In part, aaya Secretary Deuel, to the recent Inter est rate reduction from 6 to fi4 per cent. The association will advance money to the farmer only when he neexls It, if the farmer wishes, and he does not begin paying Interest charges until starting use of the money, according to Secretsry Deuel. They thus can save 130 on a 11000 loan. enjoy up-to-date smartness, comfort, convenience and central location at the MAY FLOWER.
