I con- sider the farmers that are farming on a large scale or want to farm on a large scale. They are the ones who want the tariffs taken off farm ma- chinery so they can get a large, eheap equipment with which. they can go ahead and produce on a large. scale. When they have caused an over- production, they holler for a bonus on their surplus grain, and having large quantities of grain, they are the ones that get the big handout of Money.

I con aider they are the farmers who bought their land at the time of high valuest. And through no fault of theirs, the value of tlhelr igarrns have lowered, in some eases,—'below the mortgage that is against them. I will refer to them as the small farm bor- rowing party. `Iliere is also another needy class in connection: with the needy farm ers.They are the email money lend- er's b by the low rates of interest on farm mortgages, are not getting enough to have a decent living. By small money lenders I mean a per- son who has only a total up to $15,000 to lend: I will refer to them as Albs small i l endi g party. • I have devised a plan that will help both the small borrowing pasty and the small lending ,party. I have asked a number of the small lending parties if they would; be willing under this plan to leave their money invest- ed in farm property. Eight out of ten, said, they would be willing to leave their money in farm lands as they,considered the farm land the safest place to have money invested, proVidin'g they could get 6 per rent. rate of interest on the dollar: Then if we can put fiorwar•d a plan that .:% �, •. , r Y vt r1i «„wig 1 }i wLkii ,4;4,4 -'• r �=' ,•. ,•,:.. i5, ,Se, ..

Interest on the dollar on money borrowed. That the Govermtm+entt bonus the emall money leader at a rate of 3 per cent. on the dollar fro Bits obligememt in leading money to the small borrow- ing farmer. This would give the sma11 leedling party an interest rate of 6 per rent, on the dollar. Restrictions that Mould have to be adopted (a) Interest relief not to be given to one borroWer on a larger parcel of land than 160 acres in East eiw Provinces, or one-half section in Western Provinces. Note, that is to keep down the large: Parsing scheme. (b) No interest relief to be given to a party lending money at a btghes rate than 3 per cent. on the dialler. This guards agadnet a.' party having his farm clear on viktich he may bor- row money at a 3 percent. rate, then turn around, and invest the money+r.,at 6 per cent.rate. (c) No interest relief to be given on a vacant property. This would cause a party who wished to get in- terest relief on his to 'have someone living on said property. This would probably' bring some of these flocking to the cities back to the rural com- munities. Also a farmer should not, be allowed to charge rent for the dwelling on a farm..'where be is get- ting interest relief. (d) No interest to be given to a party that hasn't been a bdna fide Oanaddan citizen for five years. This is to guard against . floreitgners \s bo have not lost any money in farm lands, but who may have e:n,ougll money that they can make a dower irayment to the lending party beel i n e the mortgage against the land. 11', the party wile has mtaiie a down Pay- ment on the land aril hay lost hi•s money through the devalnahion of the land that should be helped. ' (e) No relief On interest to be giv- en above the intring c value of the farm property. Why the Needy Farrner Should Be Helped 13y the system of free education in this country the young man or young woman who is going to depend on ed- ucation for a livelihood is getting away with a cheap start. But the young man or woman who takes up farming as an occupation has to pay his or her ower way and help to pay for this free education for the other fellow. ` If if's fair to give en class a free education:, whereby they are going to earn their livelihood it would be fair to help the class that is taking up farming as a •livelihood. How the Plan Would Affect the Con- sumers in the Cities it's my opinion that we farmers. if ?, given help to meet our debts, we wott,jri not nertl In ;..k for priz- es on our pro•du•ve. Then if we ran pay our way with' p• ernt pr•oduc,e. prirrs, Wt, tsnn't he r...:pons1ble, for raising tlx' cost, of living in the cit_ ies. Yours truly, JAMES S. DALIlYMPI,F., 1:.
