Power is given to the Board of Review to con- firm its own proposals and make the same binding upon both the farmer and his* creditors, even though they are not consenting parties thereto. The Board of Review may refuse to make any proposal in any case where it is found impossible to work out an arrangement considered fair to both the farmer and his creditors. 'After a proposal has been approved -and confirmed by the Court or a Board of Review, the failure on the part of the farmer to carry out the terms of the, proposal constitutes an act of "bankruptcy unless in the opinion of the Court to whom the application for a Receiver is made, the failure to carry * but the terms of the proposal was due to causes beyond the farmer's control. For the purposes of this act a "Farmer" is defined as "a person whose principal occupation consists of farming or the tilling of the soil." The provisions of the Act do not be: come effective in any province until : proclaimed by the Governor-in-Council to be in force in.such Province. ~The Act contains a further provision "that wherever the rate of interest on a "farm mortgage exceeds seven per cent. - per annum .the mortgagor may tender principal and interest, together with - three months further interest in lieu of notice, and' thereafter no interest shall be payable or recoverable in re- spect'to the said mortgage in excess of This pro- vision came into force with the passing of the Act. Bill 53--An Act to Amend the Canada Grain Act. . The changes in this Act place the statutory grades of No. 2 Manitoba Northern wheat on the same basis as No. 1 Manitoba Hard and No. 1 Mani- toba Northern' insofar as milling quality is concerned, and also im- powers the Western Standard Commit- tee to deal with the different varieties of grain which may be developed from time to time, so that they may be graded to the best marketing advan- tage without interfering with the quality of our main standard grades. Bill 98--AN ACT TO AMEND THE CANADIAN FARM LOAN ACT Amendments to the Canadian Farm Loan Act passed at the last session of Parliament are designed to provide through the agéney of the Canadian Farm Loan Board, increased credit facilities to farmers. Under the original Farm Loan Act the Board is empowered to loan money to farmers on first mortgage security up to a maximum of 650 per cent. of the appraised value of land plus 20 per cent. of the value of the buildings situate thereon. In practise this has meant a maximum of between 40 per cent. and 50 per cent. of the farm value. The amendments to the Act make provision enabling the Board to make additional advances to farmers obtain- ing first mortgage loans, The addi- tional advances are to be secured by a "second mortgage on the farm land and-a charge on the borrower's per- gonal property. Advances on second "mortgage security and on personal property may be made up to half the amount of the first mortgage advance but the' maximum of the combined first and second mortgage advances not exceed two-thirds of the appraised value of the land and buildings taken as security for loan, y First mortgage loans' will continue to be repayable on an amortization plan in equal consecutive annual in- stalments over a long period of years. Second mortgage loans will be -re- payable over a six year period and will carry interest at the rate notiex- ceeding the interest 'rate charged on first' mortgage loans by more than 'one per cent. Further provision is made designed to enable farmers who have made ap- proved compositions with their credi- tors under the provisions of the "Far- mers' Creditors Arrangement Act" to obtain credit through the agency of their mortgage to finance their farm- ing operations in the period of time signed to enable the Board to market immediately following the date of their approved composition, In any case where such approved composition has been made the Board has the power to make advances to any mort- gagee holding a first mortgage on the farm property of the farmer debtor up to an amount not exceeding a quarter of the principal outstanding on the said mortgage. The proceeds of the loan thus made will be expended by the mortgagee in financing the opera- tions of the farmer debtor. These loans are made on the security of an assignment by the mortgagee of the mortgage held by him on the farm and are repayable within a period of | one year from date of advance. The mortgagees to whom advances of this naturé may be made are defined by the Act to mean any Loan, Trust or Insurance Company incorporated un. der Dominion or Provincial laws and may be extended to include such other corporations or persons or classes, of corporatlons or persons as may be designed by the Governor-in-Council. In the amendents to the Act provi- sion has also been made for the guarantee by the Government of Canada of the bonds of the Board up to an amount of $40,000,000. The rate of interest charged by the Board to its borrowers is based on the rate which the Board itself is required to pay for funds borrowed by it for loaning purposes on the security of its). bonds. The provision for Government guarantee of the Board's bonds is de- these bonds at a low rate of interest. These amended 'statutes haw been |. officially proclaimed. ~ FARM EQUIPMENT DESTROYED BY FIRE Damage conservatively estimated at $5000 was caused on Monday when a gasoline explosion set fire to the barn of W. J. Stonehouse, 8rd concession of West Whitby, completely destroying the barn, a threshing outfit, an ex- pensive automobile and hundreds of dollars' worth of machinery. The Oshawa Fire Department were on the scene for almost three hours,' and saved the house, which is located about twenty yards from the barn. Water was obtained from two wells and a cistern in fighting the blaze. The gasoline explosion occurred in one of the tanks that was stored in the large barn. The flames attracted hundreds from the city of Oshawa. Mr. Stonehouse is the thresher for the district. The loss is covered by in-|- surance, _ ADVERTISE! ADVERTISE! ADVERTISE!
