Farm Housing
More farm construction- with
better homes for farm families,
better shelter for livestock and
improved storage facilities for
machinery and grain. That's the
prospect in coming years says
Edwin C. Sims, Jr., county suDer
visor for the Fanners Home Ad-
ministration.
Recently, as an anti-recession
measure, his agency expanded its
farm housing loan program to
th-* fullest extent possible under
existing laws set up by Congress.
To L>e eligible now, an applicant
must own a farm that is in
..ricultural production and must
tuan to produce at least $400
worth of comomdities for sale
and home use, based on 1944
prices. Man part time farmers
who were previously inel-
igible can qualify for loans inder
the expanding program-
Mi. King B. Sutton, chairman
of the Red River County F. H.
A. committee said that a num-
been approved by his committee
and are being processed for loans
The construction work can start
after the loan is closed.. The
loan bears 4 per cent interest
on the unDaid balance and may
be repaid over a period up to
33 years.
Mr. Sims said that one reason
for renewed interest in farm
construction is that many of the
farm homes and service building
years ago and because of weather
in the community were built
and age now need general repair.
And in some cases farm owners
need to replace them entirely
with modern structures designed
to meet present day needs.
In edition to financing major
construction, the loan funds can
heslp a farm owner repair and
and up-date buildings. For ex-
ample, he may wish to add a
bathroom including a waste dis-
posal system, modernize the
kitchen, add an extra bedroom,
improve the heating, insulation
and electric wiring, put a base-
ment under the house, and cem-
ent floors In service buildings ar
point the house and service
buildings.
Mr. Sims reported that the
agency has $400 million avail-
able nationally which can be used
over the next three years for
■plfl--,r housing loans. He aaM
there is no specified limitation
on the amount whith can be
loaned In any one star or com-
munity. Mr. Sim* said that
Walter T. MeKae. state direct-
or for Texas estimated that if
