You can get this information, along with much, much more from

Publication #159 (H.15) - Selected Interest Rates and Bond Prices (weekly)

put out by the Federal Reserve system.  It is free for  the  asking.   Just
write to:

	Publication Services
	Board of Governers of the Federal Reserve System
	Mail Stop 138
	Washington D.C.  20551

They will send it to you every week.  Last year they  sent  it  to  me  for
about six months, then stopped.  I don't know if this is their policy or if
they just forgot about me.  Anyway, I asked for  it  again  and  have  been
receiving it for about a month now.

As I said above, there is lots of information on a single sheet  of  paper.
Basically  you  get  daily  rates  for  the week, this weeks and last weeks
average, and the average for the month.  Interest rates exist  for  federal
funds, commercial paper, CDs, treasury bills, corporate bonds, conventional
mortgages, etc.  If your mortgage is like mine, you want  to  look  at  the
treasury constant maturities (1-year), this weeks average.  The average for
the week Dec.  9 through Dec.  13 was 7.65.
