Energy Savers Increase Lending For Alcohol, Other Projects K now / T Hf ?alher The U.S. Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) is making farm loans available for on-the-farm production of alcohol and other petroleum-saving sources of fuel and energy. Robert C. Becker, county supervisor, announced that national agency officials have given a go-ahead for the use of FmHA Farm Real Estate and Production loans for "Energy Alternatives that are shown to be reliable and practical for use on the farm." Becker said the FmHA office in Belvidere is prepared to receive ap plications for the financing of fuel-alcohol or other energy devices that McHenry county farmers propose to install on their farms. Most fuel produced with the loans is expected to be made from farmers' own grain or other raw material and used by the producing farmer as a home-made substitute for petroleum products. Becker said the agency's action is "in keeping with President Carter's objective of reducing dependence on imported petroleum." "Farm ownership and operating loans may be made for a wide variety of energy-related purposes such as insulation, solar heating and drying equip ment, methane gas facilities and fuel alcohol distilleries." Regulations on lending by FmHA, a U.S. Department of Agriculture credit agency, limit its farm ownership and operating loans to the owner- operators or tenant operators of family size farms. Others may qualify for loans under a special Economic Emergency program or for im provement of farm soil and water resources. Loans can be made only to applicants who show they cannot get adequate credit from other sources. In non-emergency farm loan programs, loans ob tained directly from FmHA are limited to $200,000 for real estate purposes and $100,000 for operating pur poses. The limits are $300,000 and $200,000 respectively, if loans are made by com mercial lenders and guaranteed by FmHA. Becker said FmHA also has been authorized to open up its Rural Business- Industrial (B&I) loan guarantees to help establish more large industrial alcohol fuel distilleries and methane plants. Information may be ob tained at the FmHA county office located at 8108 Ap- pleton road, Belvidere, or by calling AC 815-544-3567. Wlial happens when a cold fnuit and a warm front meet head-on? What are the characteristics of the station ary front produced? A cold front, running into a warm front with about equal momentum, stagnates and marks time. The warm front also comes to a halt and the result, where the two air masses have met, is a stationary front. A stationary front almost always produces prolonged rain and cloud ai^d erratic wind currents. Sometimes .the rain lasts for many days, until one of the systems breaks through the other and another strong front moves in.
