State Designated ,
As Emergency
Loan Area By USDA !
The Department of Agriculture to
day announced the designation
through June 30, 1957, of the entire t
State of North Carolina as an area f
where the Farmers Home Adminls. a
tration may make emergency
loans to eligible farmers.
u
The Department said that during
the past four years, hurricanes,
drought, and other adverse weath- f
er conditions have brought about a ?
situation under which normal cred
it sources will be unable to meet
the heavy demand for operating C
j credit this spring. 1
The action was taken under Pub- 1
lie Law 727, 83rd Congress. The law '
provides for emergency loans for 1
agricultural purposes where there 1
is need for agricultural credit that
cannot be met for a temporary per c
iod from commercial banks, co- 1
jperative lending agencies, the t
farmers Home Administration
under its regular programs, or i
. through other types of emergency
loans.
Emergency loans are made to
finance formal operations, but
may not be used to refinance exist
ing debts. Farmers may apply for ^
loans at the Farmers Home Ad
ministration County Office here in
Murphy.
To be eligible, a farmer must
be unable to obtain the credit he
needs from other local sources,
must be primarily engaged in
farming, and have suitable exper
ience and reasonable prospects for
success in the farming operations
he plans to carry on with the loan.
Repayments are scheduled ac
cording to the borrower's ability
to repay. Loans to meet operating
expenses are secured by liens on
crops and ordinarily on chattel
"property, and run from one to five
years depending on the exact pur
pose for which funds were advanc
ed. Loans for crop production are
usually scheduled for repayment
when the income from the crops
is normally received. The interest
rate is 3 percent.
Under Public Law 727, no loan

Tips On Fitting
Children's Shoes
It's important to fit shoes correct
ly?children's even more so than
your own for their bones are soft
and still growing. Remember, too
much shoe space can be just as
dangerous as crowded space.
Good fitting shoes need not be ex
pensive. Moderately priced shoes
today are serviceable and made of
good wearing materials. Lasts and
construction are normally the same
as those used in higher priced
shoes. Because children outgrow
rather than outwear shoes, it is
better to buy moderately priced
" shoes and buy them oftener, thus
changing sizes as needed by a
child's fast growing foot. Don't buy
shoes too large nor attempt to get
every last bit of wear from them
which is apt to happen when a
, mother strains her budget to buy
| her child "theh very best".
March 29 Midway 1:30 p. m. Mrs.
N. T. Penland.
Miss Catherine Campbell, house
furnishings specialist, State Col
lege, Raleigh, N. C., will work
with Miss Thelma Wheeler, home
agent, March 27. The day will be
devoted to making preparations for
the April lesson on Window Treat
ments. The first lesson on this sub
ject will be devoted to glass cur
tains. Interesting illustrative ma
terials will be used in this study.
