NOEL THREATENS
 EXTRA SESSION

Jackson, Miss, June 9.-(Special)-Gov- ernor Noel has given out a lengthy inter- view in which he reviews the history of the recent bond sale and the decision of the supreme court declaring the un-, earned interest could not be paid and in- timating that he may call an extra session of the legislature to appropriate money to pay this interest, the good name and credit of the state being at stake. The interest involved amounts to only about s12,000, but there Is no way to pay it without an appropriation from the legis- lature.
 The purchasers of the s600,0O0 worth of per cent bonds were assured by the com missioners who sold the bonds that they would be paid the interest for the first six months, regardless of the date on which they paid their money for bonds, and Governor Noel would see that promise made good at once, but mas mol deter mined whether or not he will call the special session.

ALABAMA CROP CONDITIONS

known to be as good as it is at this time The most conservative planters say that it is 25 per cent better, in a better con- dition cleaner and larger than ever known at this time of year the rains have been such as to force it off into a rapid growth, the extreme hot weather, aided by the rainfall, has advanced it beyond anything ever known before at this season. The crop is larger by at least 5 per cent than last year, and q third better at this period. A large part of the cotton crop is now chopped to a stand, has been worked well and plenty. Labor has been in some quarters little scarce, but sufficient labor has been se- cured to put the crop out of danger of grass and weeds.
 The oat crop is very promising and un- less damaged by rains at harvest time Is going to be money making crop for the planters Corn is small owing to the late ness in getting it planted, but it is grow ing rich color, well cultivated and promises we'll The corn acreage is about the same as that of 1910, which was the bumper corn crop of this section.
 There is little doing in this section in regard to cattle growing. The range is about taken up and it is hardly profitable to the planter to grow cattle as long as we are kept in the realm of low prices by the ouarnatine against ticks.

financial system the farmers should be forced to sell their products at an Unprofitably low figure or to pay ex Crbitant rates of interest for holding them than should those of any other industry. When cotton growers are forced to pay three quarters of a cent pound in interest, storage, insur- ance and other charges for holding their product this amounts on 12,- O0O. 900 bale crop to $45,000,000 and in wolves a heavy sacrifice to the own CTS. who in this case are the farmers. Similar conditions apply to our other great agricultural crops. revision of our banking system that will equalize the rates and terms offered to all banks in all sections is what the farmers need and in so far as the National Reserve association plan provides for this it is d beneficial one to our farming interests.
 As I understand it this plan seeks to bring about a mobilization of cred it that will provide needed facilities for holding and moving crops on req sonable terms, and that in my opinion is one of it's most valuable features. Under our present system. whenever money will bring a higher price in New York with stocks and bonds as collateral than it will in smaller communities on agricultural products, it may be depended upon that the money will go east and the farmers of the south and west will be prac- ticaIlv forced by exorbitant rates of interest to sel their crops at any price at which the market will take them
 Another important feature Of the revised plan under discussion IS the liberaliZing of the banking law to provide for savings departments m national banks and for the loanins iof a portion of these savings funds on real estate. So far as this ap- plies to agricultural lands, If safe- guarded against speculation 1t will be of great benefit by providing cheaper money to develop our agricultural re- sources
