Approximately a million and a quarter dollars in farm loans is being held by the Federal Land Bank of New Orleans because farmer applicants have not sent in their abstracts of title to the security offered. It appears that no other condition is contributing so much to delay the outflow of money to farmers in Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi whose applications for loans have been approved, as the slowness of farmers themselves to cooperate in furnishing the neces sary legal'abstracts of title to their farm security. Farmers are ad vised to keep in touch with the bank's representatives in their localities .0 see that no unnecessary delays occur and and furnish the necessary information as promptly as possible.

At the close of business September 21 the bank held 846 applications for $1,247,000 which had been approved and were waiting for the applicant" to send in the necessary abstract of title so that the money could be rele'ased. The average amount of applications as is ranging Jdcr-sisse from $200 to $25,000. Of the total number awaiting abstracts, about 35'per cent were approved for the original amount applied for, while the amount applied for was reduced in about 65 per cent of the- cases. The original amounts of these applications averaged $1895.
