Rural Credit Societies urged Manitoba farmers and business men to form rural credit societies under the Rural Credits Act. The act allows individual shareholders to obtain short term loans for farming operations secured by crop security, aiming to facilitate production and expansion in the district.
The act outlines rural credit societies funded by $100 per member from farmers municipalities and the government. Loans backed by bank credit could reach $100 000 with bonds or cash, requiring at least fifteen farmers to petition for letters patent. Governments appoint secretaries treasurers during setup and several societies already operate benefitting agricultural communities.
Mr W Sask thanks Austin and Matthew friends for sympathy after the death of Mrs Hartley, expressing sincere gratitude for kind expressions during his bereavement.
