Puckerless Persimmon Is Coming Next

anese kind with some softer tongued
brand from the south and thus gradu-
ally weaken the a~stringent properties.
Much heacway has been made in that
direction. The Josephine style of
American persimmons has been cross
ed with the Venom type I, japan.
The American flavor won out, while
the Japanese hardness and firmness
remained.
On the theory that there cannot be
too much of a good thing, the Japa-
nese often heat their persimmons with
the fumes of saki, thereby weakening
the ~puckering power. Experiments
have been tried by the agricultural de-
partment and something may be &C.
complished along those lines. Just
what liquor is being used to graduate
the flavor is guarded as a secret.
To help things along a new kind OF
persimmon has been discovered down
In Texas. Nobody knows its origin.
1t just grew up. 1t does not produce
puckering when eaten hard and the
taste left In the mouth is equal to
that of fully ripened fruit.

ports that the directors Of only $500
are holding reasonably frequent meet
ings.
The last step taken by the control
Ter In his campaign of reform Is the
sending out to the board of directors
of each of the $500 derelict banks a
letter requesting them to amend their
bylaws so as to provide, If they do
not now do So, for at least monthly
meetings of the board; also for the
appointment of an examining commit.
tee, and a discount committee, and
for the approval by the board of di-
rectors at the monthly meetings or
.oftener, of all loans and discounts,
and the recording of such approval in
permanent form.
The, controller possesses all the
power he needs to enforce his re-
quests. He may be unable to punish
a bank directly for carelessness in the
conduct of it's business, but nothing
can prevent his ordering banks ex-
amined as often as he pleases. Under
the law the controller may direct the
examination Of a bank as often as is
deemed necessary and proper" and
while the great majority of bankl
have no reason to fear an examina-
ton by government agents, these ex-
aminations cost money and are bother
some, and wise bankers do all they
can to make such examinations un-
necessary.
Mr.. Murray's experience in the con.
troller's Office has demonstrated that
the controller needs no greater au.
thority to regulate the administrative
functions Of the national banks than
the law already provides.

IS AFTER THE BANKS
Controller of Currency Murray Is
Getting Results.
CareIessness Of Some Directors In Not
Attending Meetings One Of the
Evils at Which the o.
fetal Aims.

Neutrality-suspicious. $500 national
banks in the United States do not
hold directors meetings as often as
once a month. Some hold them not
oftener than once in six months;
some once a year, and there are banks
in the country which hold no direc-
tors meetings at all.
Lawrence o. Murray, controller Of
the currency, is just rounding up the
comprehensive scheme of bank con
troll which he instituted when appoint
ed to succeed w. B. Ridgely, a year
and q half ago. Mr.. Murray signalized
his accession to Office by preparing,
shortly after, a set Of questions to
bank directors which some people,
who were not informed as to the sit
uation or the ultimate intentions or the
controller, may have considered the
most drastic ever sent out by the
treasury department. They were de-
signed to build a fire under directors
who had acquired the habit of looking
in upon the meetings only long enough
to grab a gold piece and rush out
again, or did not take the trouble to
attend meetings at all.
These questions, in many Of their
phases, went to the root of bank ad-
ministration. Their general purpose
was to insure the directors of national
banks knowing what their institutions
were doing.
The questions asked by the con-
troller have produced noteworthy re-
suits in administration. There are
approximately 1000 national banks
scattered throughout the country.
Every one of these institutions is re-
CURED to report to the controller of
the currency. He has ascertained

"QUANTlTY, QUAIL
lTY AND PRICE"
THE THREE ESSENTIALS THAT
ARE GIVING WESTERN CANADA
Greater Impulse Than Ever This Year.

The reports from the grain fields of
Central Canada, (Which comprises the
Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta) are to hand. The year
1909 has not only kept pace with pre-
vious years in proving that this por-
ton of the Continent is capable of
producing a splendid yield of all the
smaller grains, but it has thoroughly
outstripped previous seasons. There
is quantity, quality and price and from
all parts of an r of about 800, 900
square miles there comes the strong
refrain Of contentment and satisfac-
ton. In the distribution of the con.
ditions causing it no district has been
overlooked.
Various estimates of the total yield
of wheat for the country have been
made, but it is not the vast total that
influences the general reader SO much
as what has been done individually.
The grand total-say 1870 million bush
els-may have its effect on the grain
price of the world; it may be interest
ing to know that in the worlds mar
kets the wheat crop of Canada has
suddenly broken upon the trading
boards, and with the Argentine, and
with Russia and India, is now a fac.
tor in the making of prices. If so to-
day, what will be it's effect five or ten
years from now, when, instead of
there being seven million acres under
crop with a total yield of 1875 or 100
million bushels, there will be from II
to 80 million acres in wheat with a
yield of from 325 to 600 million bush
els. When it is considered that the
largest yield in the United States but
slightly exceeded 700 million bushels,
the greatness of these figures may be
understood. Well, such is a safe fore
cast, for Canada has the land and it
has the soil. Even today the Prov
tnce Of Saskatchewan, n of the three
great wheat growing provinces of Can
ada. with 100000 acres under wheat,
produces nearly 80 million bushels, or
upwards of one-tenth of the greatest
yield of the United States. And Sas-
katchewan is yet only in the begin
ming of its development. AS Lord
Grey recently pointed out in speaking
on this very subject, this years crop
does not represent one-tenth of the
soil equally fertile that is yet to be
brought under the plough.
Individually, reports are to hand
of yields of twenty-five, thirty and
t~hirty-five bushels to the acre. Scores
Of yields are reported of forty and
some as high as sixty bushels. The
farmer, who takes care of his soil,
who gets his seed-bed ready early, is
certain of a splendid crop.
The news of the magnificent crop
yield throughout the Canadian West
will be pleasing to the friends of the
thousands of Americans who are resi-
dents in that country and who are
vastly instrumental in the assistance
they are rendering to let the world
know it's capabilities.

Uncle Sam Put Ban on Taxicab Trips

A notable case is that of internal

taxicabs and automobiles are to be
used only in cases Of absolute neces-

Representative Walter Smith Of
Iowa says that every time he hears
that a message is about to be sent to
congress dealing with the relations of
the United States with some Latin or
South American republic it always re-
minds him Of a speech made in con-
gress by John Allen of Tupelo, Miss.

United States sailors had in the har-
Dor of Valparaiso" said Mr.. Smith.
Chile made ample apology and Of
fered to make other reparation before
congress got down to the considera-
ton Of the message. While this sit
uation existed Allen got up in the
house one day and without reference
to the message or the action Of Chile,
told this story:
Mr.. Speaker said Allen, I am
reminded of three men who were
working one day on a farm near my
town of Tupelo. 1t began to rain and
they all started for the barn. One
of them broke into a swift run and
never stopped till he got to the barn,
When the other two reached the barn
they found the runner stretched out on
tr, floor, thoroughly exhausted.
John, what's the sense of running
yourself to the point of exhaustion just
to get out of the way of a little rain?
said they.
