The interest accruing on such refunding bonds shall be evidenced by semiannual interest coupons thereto attached, bearing the engraved facsimile signature of the county treasurer, and when so executed such coupons shall be the binding obligations of the county, according to their import. (3) In the adoption of said resolution providing for the issue of such refunding bonds, the board of county commissioners shall make the principal of the debt payable in equal annual installments during the currency of the period, not exceeding twenty-five years, within which the debt is to be discharged; but the date of maturity of the first installment of the debt shall be not more than five years from the date of said refunding bonds.
