A report covering the lira -full year's operation of dais Act wa tabled recently ..iia the House of C;om mon by the Minister of Finance, ;. on Douglas Abbott. Loans are made through the 3,100 branches of the" chartered banks for the improvement 'and development- o farws . and for, the improvement o1 living cond,itions on farms.

Loans for the purchase of farm im- plements and farm trucks accounted for $7,488,347 during 194G, representing an actual sales` volume of approximate- ly $12,500,000. From information avail- able it is reasonable to assume that practically all farm implement sales in'Oanada requiring financing are now being financed either through loans obtainable under the Farm Improve- ment Loans Act- or through regular bank loans. Substangaal Saving to Farmers The result sliould be a substantial saving to the farmer, not only in the purchase price of his farm implements but also hi finance charges and interest rates previously prevailing for this type of financing. Included in the total are loans to 1,008 farmers to clear and break an estimated 50,0,00 acres of new land, mostly 111 pioneer sections of Western Canada. There were 303 loans for foundation and breeding stuck totalling $190,937. • ()ne of the most important classes of loans is that for the construction, alter- ation and repair of farm buildings, in - eluding faran dwellings and separate. houses for farm help.
