Farm Loan Bank Growing.
The volume of business now being
transacted by the federal farm bank
is increasing in such proportions that
one-half of the 14-th floor of the Pal
metto bank has been leased for addi
tional office accommodations. The en
tire 13th floor is now occupied by the
organization, which is proving inade
quate for the rapidly developing busi
ness.
Applications for loans, approximat
Ing $30,000,000 have been received.
1-. J. 1-1. vonEngleken, president, said.
Eig.hteen field men are kept on the
rush in appraising the value of the
land offered in collateral and making
investigation as -to the character and
reliability of the aepplicant.
South Carolina has shown the most
rcady response to the opportunity
which the federal bank offered the
armers. Farm loan associations are
being organized in regular distribu
ion over North Carolina, South Caro
Ina. Georgia and Florida, which
;tates are served by the Columbia
bank. Twelve of these have been
-hartered in South Carolina, three in
leorgia, two in Florida and slic in
orth Carolina. As soon- as the organ
zations are formed and the applica
Ions for loans they submit are ap
)roved, the associations are chartered
in (Ithe loans they ask immediately
ssued. Applications for $1.000,000 in
oans have been recived from the 23
issoclations which have just been
'hartered and the loans- will be made
mmediately.

Lnd estima4es that there at least 8,000
o 10,000 not yet regis-tered. The time
