The corporation may issue its corporate bonds, in sums of at least $100, secured by these mortgages or deeds of trust. The mortgages or deeds of trust may by their terms include after-acquired real and personal property, and are as valid and effectual for that purpose as if this after-acquired property were owned by, and in possession of, the corporation giving the mortgage or deed of trust at the time of its execution.
