New Law Aids Veterans
In Getting Farm Loans
The Loan Guaranty Officer at
the Columbia Regional Office has
announced that World War H and
Korean conflict veterans will find
it easier to get GI loans to pur
chase farms on which there Is a
home, or to construct or improve
farm houses under a new law
signed recently by the president.
The new law increases the vet
erans administration guarnty ' of
GI farm loans made by private
lenders to 60 per cent of the loan
with the maximum guaranty of
$7,500, on the following three
types of loans:
1. For the purchase of a farm
on which there is a farm resid
ence to be occupied by the veter
an as his home. The guaranty
would cover not only the farm and*
residence but include all othdr
buildings which are considered as
part of the realty.
2. For the construction of a
farm residence to be occupied by
the veteran on land owned by the
veteran. In the case of a veteran
I REMEMBER’
7 BY THX OLD T DESKS
From Charlao L. M swart, Ala
bama City, Alabama! Whoa I was
a little boy wo used to take hay
rides in the family's old wooden
axle ox wagqn. We were too poor
to use aide grease for lubrication
so e tor bucket Idled with soft
pitch hung outside the wagon bed.
When the wheels began crying so
loud for lubrication that the neigh
borhood dogs began barking as we
passed we then knew it was time
to “tar up.**
Crude and humble though this
method of travel was, we' had a
reasonable assurance that we'd
get there in one piece!
1 also remember the little brass
lamp with a round wick that was
our only light at night other than
the light of the wood fire in the
giant fireplace. ,
We children seldom got any can
dy except at the Christmas sea
son. Ice cream none of us tasted
until the turn of the century. Shoes
—I usually got my first pair for
the year at Christmas.
Good old days! A lot of people
say they were, but good for what?
Long hours of labor, coarse food,
jeans, cotton check dresses and
brogan shoes with brass toes!

From Mrs. Forest Grose, Austin,
Texas: I remember when there
were no telephones in the small
town where I lived os a child, and
when anyone gave a pasty they
sent out a personal messenger
with a big piece of paper listing
all the people who were being In
vited. A space by eaeh name would
be filled In by them with such
notations as: “accept with pleas
ure,** er “sorry we can't attend,**
etc.

military and academic honor ntmn
in West Point's 1MB class.
who wants to build a residence on
his farm on which there is an in
debtedness secured by a lien ag
ainst the land, the GI loan with
the increased guaranty can be
used to liquidate that lien if the
indebtedness does not exceed the
reasonable value of the land.
3. For the repair, alteration or
improvement of a farm residence
owned by the veteran and occu
pied by him as his home. Such
repairs, alterations stud improve
ments must protect or improve
the basic livability or utility of
the farm residence.
VA said the new law puts the
three types of farm loans on a
parity with GI home loans—both
of which now carry the 60 per
cent up to $7,500 guaranty.
The guaranty on GI loans for
unimproved farms or for the re
pair of farm buildings other than
the residence itself will remain
the same—50 per cent of the loan
with a maximum of $4000.
The guaranty of farm non-real
ty loans for such things as stock,
feed, seed and equipment remains
at 50 per cent of the loan with a
maximum guaranty of $2000.
VA said that while maximum
guarantees are set by law, the
amount of the loan obtainable by
a veteran depends on the policies
of the lender.
In the 11 years of the GI pro
gram, VA has guaranteed or in
sured 67,760 farm loans totaling
$264,786,200. Veterans have paid
back in full 39,867 GI farm loans
totaling $120,909,670.
VA has had to pay claims on
only 2,099 farm loans. Net amount
of the claims paid is $1,456,400
and that amount is subject to
further recovery through the
liquidation of tangible security or
from the veterans.
World War II veterans have
until July 25, 1957 to use the GI
loan benefits while Korean con
flict veterans have until January
31, 1965.

There was a batch of standard
equipment we boys of the Stone
Hills used to carry in our pock
ets. It varied some, but not much.
A horseshoe nail with point im
bedded in a small eroded piece
of corn cob was always among my
valuables. It was, and still is, a-
bout the best nutpick I’ve ever
used. Specially / for ones hard to
get the meat out of, like hickory
nuts. A modern nutpick can’t
get into those narrow caverns.
The other day a reader from
Alabama mailed me two shipy
new horseshoe nails and wondered
if I knew what country boys used
them for. They were the first I
had seen in a long time. ,
Another 1 nse we had of them
was to make darts out of. We # d
Insert the quill end of a wing or
tail feather of a chicken in a
spool that thread came on. Then
we’d wedge it In with a horse
shoe nail, driving the /head clear
into the hole in the spool to fas
ten it and the feather securely.
Then the sharp point of the nail
would stick out of the other side
of the spool. You could throw
that against the side of a build
ing and guided by thefeather, it
would stick there.
Although our harvest of wild
nuts from the woods came only
in the fall, we had use for that
horseshoe nail all year long. For
we gathered nuts by the bags full
kept them cool in the celler where
they wouldn't get rancid, and
ate them all along.
Next week more about what we
boys carried in our pockets.
