CREDIT BY COOPERATION
Massing of the Agricultural
Dollar Builds a Great
Financial Machine.

Washington. Aug 4.-The investiga-
ton OF The German cooperative credit
systems which is being made by Ambas-
sador Leishman at Berlin in connection
with President Taft's effort TO introduce
cooperative credit into this country for
the benefit Of the American farmer is di-
vlded into three partisan investigation
OF the Raiffeisen system Of rural banks,
Of the Schulze- DeitZsch system Of pCpu-
lar urban banks and Of the Landschaften
and Ritterschaften mortgage bond as
soclations, which are the medium of secur-
ing the farmer the money necessary FOR
the permanent improvement Of his land.
Germany is the birthplace OF cooper
atlve credit. Necessity was the mothe'
Of its invention. Improved systems OF
credit gave tho merchants dollar muln-
piled strength The farmers dollar re-
NAMED dead weight-worth dollar
and no more. The merchants dollar was
being deposited and Withdrawn in dozen
transactions in rs many hours, doing the
work OF a dozen dollars.

master of Weyerbusch. in Germany set
about planning a machine which would

How the Plan Works.

FIRST. the members OF The combine must
hold themselves liable 10 an unlimited eX-
tent for the transactions Of the society ;
second. the society must operate only in a
limited field. so that every member would
be Il neichbor Of every other member.
This reduced the chances OF squandered
loans. Lastly. that the management OF
the soCietys business be done az mini
mum cost. most Of the managers giving
their services gratis.
This u the simple basis Of The Raif-
feisen system Of rural credit, which has
spread practically 10 cry country IN
Europe, and which has done more than all
else to release the European farmer from
the grasp of the money lender and 70 en-
able him 10 make the dollar which he used
10 hoard n a sock an active help to him
every hour OF the day
Fearing speculative control of the banks
and desiring 10 extend the benefits OF his
system 10 the poorest who might ask aid.
Herr Raineisen refused 20 allow the
banks TO be established with foundation
capital secured by selling shares OF capt.
tai stock. To secure a working capital
for his banks he offered four sources Of
income /. deposits on current account :
2. savings deposits. 3, loans from other
banks or from private individuals, and.
I. the reserve fund mad" Of earnings Of
past years. Since the system was first in
augurated a law has been passed In Ger
many requiring all cooperative banks 10
have foundation capital To comply
with the law the Ralffeisen banks sold
shares OF capital stock, but limited their
value 20 a nominal amount, and To pre-
vent any control Of the bank. restricted
the right OF individuals TO hold large
quantities OF the stock.

for long periods, the roads are prac-
tically impossible. During these
periods of impassability the mar
kets may be at the highest points of
the year and hundreds of farmers
wholly unable to take advantage
of it.
Three or four months every year
their business is at a standstill on
account of bad roads. Good roads,
will permit them to haul either to
or from the farm every day in the
year, and to do business every day.
Good roads will increase the earn

twenty-five per cent.-Better Roads,

Roads and the Farmer.

The future progress, development
aad enrichment of the United States
is contained in the present good
roads movement. One of the as
tonishing and explainable things is
the opposition of the farmer. in
some sections, to the construction
of good roads.
The farmer is ordinarily a thor
oughly practical. common-sense in
dividual, yet In the matter of good
roads he has not been a willing or
active advocate. He seems to have
laid the good, horse sense he en-
ploys in the conduct of his own
business when it came to road con-
struction. He forgot his ideas and
practices of economy, and yearly
largely squandered the money and
labor appropriated to road construc-
ton in impractical and improvi-
dent methods. No one will
ever be able.te calculate the loss
to the farmer that bad roads have
entailed.
The modern farmer studies the
markets and crop conditions close
ly. The ability to realize on his
crops when prices are high means
many dollars to him. The ability
to haul maximum loads to the mar.
kets at all times of the year Is alb
solutely essential to him to get the
greatest profits out of his crops
Yet there are large sections where

Dear Subscriber.

There are several hundred people
who owe US at least one dollar. Of
