THE LAND is one of
man’s most valuable as-
sets - we think it is prime
collateral. In the past
54 years the Federal Land
Bank of Houston has
made almost 200,000
loans on Texas farms
and ranches.
In other words, we spe-
cialize in making farm and
ranch real estate loans—
long term loans with pre-
payment privileges.
According to latest figures re-
leased by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, Unit-
ed States farmers produce more
than 462 million pounds of pop-
corn harvested from 181.600 ac-
res per year.
