It came with the singing of the Farm Loan Act by President Wilson on July 17, 1916. Pre sident Wilson's action followed studies by two Presidents be fore him?Roosevelt andTaft? both of whom concluded that what was wrong with life on the farm was lack of capital for growth. The Farm Loan Act created the farmer-owned Federal Land Bank System, an organization of 12 district banks through which farmers, growers and ranchers could borrow money on terms as good as those available to the businessman In the city. DeWitt Carr, manager of the Federal Land bank Associa tion of Clinton, says the Farm Loan Act marked the beginning of the end of nearly 200 years' warfare on two fronts for most of the nation's farmers. "On the one hand, the far mer was fighting aggressively to make his land productive. On the other, he was hustling around In a defensive action try ing to tind money to hid on to the land he had," Mr. Carr said. Lenders, he said, regarded farmers as extremely poor bu siness risks?which was true because they were poor pro ducers. Interest rates there fore were set high. 10 per cent annually and higher. Terms of the loans were usually under five years. "But ironically, the farmer looked bad as a producer be cause he didn't have? and > couldn't get?financial help to put him on a business basis," Mr. Carr said. "He was caught squarely In the middle." The Federal Land Bank of Columbia, one of the 12 set up In the United States, was es tablished In 1917. It serves a sister of the groom, of Bridge ton, and Miss Carolyn Batcne lor of Sanford. They wore dres ses and headpieces Identical to the Matron of Honor and each carried a long stemmed pink rose. Honorary bridesmaids were Misses Janice Bryan of Jupiter, Florida and Marina Blackmore of Warsaw. Attending the groom as best man was Mr. George Hamilton Bryan, father of the groom. Ushers were M. H. Barr, Jr. of Warsaw, brother of the bride, Alford Lee Smith of Atlanta, Ga. brother-in-law of the bride, John Barnum of Charlotte, and Charles Alford of New Bern. The bride's mother wore a pink, whipped cream dress with matching accessories. The mo ther of tne groom chose an aqua lace dress with matching ac cessories . Lavender orchid corsages completed their en sembles. For traveling the bride wore a pink silk dress with a lace uuuite wun maicning accessor- * ies and a cors age of white roses. The bride fi a graduate of Campbell College and the groom Is a student at Campbell and Minister of Music at the Is lington Baptist Church. The couple will make their home In Bules creek. four-state area. Including North and South Carolina. Georgia and Florida. The Federal Land Bank ASt social Ion of Clinton, one of 46 associations now operating In the Columbia district, was es tablished In 1911 and currently has 1021 members. Each borrower from the as sociation becomes a member and remains one until his loan Is paid. At that time his stock, representing 5 per cent of his loan is retired and paid to him by the Association. "The history of the Land Banks," Mr. Carr said, "Is al most a history of the progress of agriculture In the united States." "And this progress has been | tremendous. At tne turn of the century, a farmer was produc ing only enough food for about five persons. Today he produces for more than 33. Furthermore, he's functioning with far fewer people and a good deal less land. There are about half the num ber of people In farming today as there were In the early 1900"s and there are fewer farms. Farms today are bigger, erf course; as production units, they have to feed as many more people at prices that have var ied only a little from one decade to the next." The Land Banks," he said, "have adapted their operations to meet the changing needs of , AFTER-REHEARSAL PARTY Mr. and Mrs. Robert Black more ami "Mr. and Mrs. Wal ker McNeil entertained the Br yan-Barr wedding party and other guests at an after-re hearsal party at the Blackmore home near Warsaw on Saturday evening.
