of $1,062,905.25. This balance;
is a 22 per cent increase over
the $870,596.87 on loan Oct. 31,
1961. The net gain for the past
year was approximately 2 per
cent to the state on its invest
ment in the loan fund after de
ducting all costs and allowance
for uncollectibles.
The one million dollar mark
was the original goal when the
Loan Fund was set up by the
1953 territorial legislature with
an appropriation of $200,000.
Subsequent Legislatures have
increased the appropriation and
the scope of the Program as
well as increasing the total au
thorization to two million dol
lars.
Of the principal balance out
standing on October 31, 1962,
$437,324.27, or 41 per cent, was
for long-term farm develop
ment; $516,300.26, or 49 per
cent, was for the acquisition of
livestock and machinery; and
$109,280.72, or 10 percent, was
for short-term financing, usual
ly for labor, seed, or fertilizer
expenses.
On loan in all three classifi
cations was $268,509.89 in the
Tanana Valley; $454,759.07 in
the Matanuska / Anchorage
area; and $339,636.29 in all
other areas of the state, most of
which went to the Kenai Pen
insula.
The state loan program makes
funds available for farmers and
agricultural firms who are un
able to secure adequate financ
ing from other sources. Loans
have been made on all types of
agricultural enterprises and to
farmers residing in all of the
agricultural areas of the state.
Specific loan information and
application forms are available
at both the Palmer and the
Fairbanks offices of the Alaska
Division of Agriculture.
