Abstract

"New water towers and standpipes are becoming a familiar sight in the Missouri countryside. The number of rural water supply systems in the state has increased especially since 1965, the year the Farmers Home Administration expanded its loan program for this purpose. FHA offers financial assistance to two general types of water distribution organizations, ( 1) municipal systems which include villages, towns, or cities with less than 5,500 population, and (2) rural districts. City officials serve as the governing body of the municipal systems. The rural districts differ in that a new organization is established ( under Chapter 247, Revised Statutes of Missouri) to administer the water distribution program. This organization is usually outside the city and serves both rural residents and farmers."--First page.
