LAND IA NIX *

Agricultural credit arouses great in
terest today. The need is not peculiar
to America. The report of the acting
manager Of the Rhodesia Land Bank
has some interesting observations on
this question. Even far away South
Africa seems to have some problems
very similar. -.
The ordinary bank has done a great
deal for the farmers. It often caters
primarily, however, to the demand of
the merchant who turns over his cap
ital more rapidly. The short time loan
meets the needs Of the merchant much
better than those Of the farmer.
The Rhodesia Land Bank makes
loans secured by the first mortgage on
real estate or by the deposit Of some
other approved security.
Loans are made for the purchase of
land, the payment Of debts or nipple
ments and for improvements such as
buildings, fences, drainage, or even
the planting Of forest trees.
No loan will be made for an amount
greater than 60 per cent Of the value
of the permanent improvements. No
one man can secure more than $4,000
in this way. Interest is payable semi
annually at the rate Of six per cent per
annum.
These loans must be repaid gradu-
ally within ten years. An amortiza'
ton plan provides for gradual repay
ment. No payments fall due until the
end Of the second year when 4 per
cent Of the principal must be repaid
The rate Of repayment gradually in.
creases until during the ninth and
tenth year it reaches Is per cent,
after which, Of course, it has been re-
paid.
| The borrowers pay an application
fee of $500 and the necessary .ex-
penses of the bank inspector. He
agrees to keep all improvements in
good repair. If he fails to do this, the
bank reserves the right to do so at
his expense. It may also specify
whether insurance be carried or not

Only Need to Gain Six Repub-
|ican Seats.
SOME STATES VERY CLOSE
Returns Assure Joseph G. Can
mons Defeat In House.

Washington, Nov. 7.-There remains
only slight uncertainty that the Dem
ocratic party would control the United
States senate. If the Democrats had
carried West Virginia their control ap.
parently would have been assured.
But late returns indicated that that
state probably would have a Repub-
lican majority of twenty votes or more
in the legislature.
Democratic control CT the senate de-
ponds upon later returns from several
states where the results still were in
doubt. Definite returns were lacking
from Oregon, Wyoming, Tennessee,
New Hampshire, Illinois and South
Dakota. Late figures from Nevada in
dictate that Pittman, Democrat, is lead
ing and probably is elected.
OF the nineteen seats held by Re-
publicans which were at stalks in
Tuesdays election it became neces-
sary for the Democrats to elect six to
procure a majority in the senate, pro-
viding they were able at the same
time to retain possession of their own.
Returns gave them the following Re-
publican strongholds:
Two in Colorado, where John F..
Shafroth, Democrat, for the full term,
and c. s. Thomas, Democrat. for the,
short term, will be selected by a Dem
ocratic Legislature.
One in Monta-a, where Republicans
and PTogressives conceded the cleo
ton of T. J. Walsh, Democrat.
Stubs Beaten in Kansas.
One in Kansas, where w. r. Stubbs,
Republican, conceded the election of
his opponent. William H. Thompson,
Democrat.
One in Delaware, a Democratic leg
islature assuring the return of a Dem.
ocrat to succeed Richardson, Repub~
ucan. retired.
One in New Jersey, where William
Hughes. Democrat, will succeed Briggs.
Republican.
Iowa, which was considered doubt
full. elected a Republican legislature,
which probably will select w. s. Ken
yon, Republican.
The personnel Of the new senate
will show many OF the veterans, with
large infusion of new blood. Among
those who failed for denomination and
whose names will not appear on the
senate rolls is Shelby n. Cullom of
Illinois, whose congressional career
goes back to the time of Abraham
Lincoln. Included in this list are also
Senators Curtis Of Kansas. Bourne Of
Oregon and Gamble Of South Dakota.
Senators Bailey of Texas, Crane of
Massachusetts,, Guggenhefm of Colora-
do, Richardson Of Delaware, Durham
of New Hampshire and Wetmore of
Rhode Island retire voluntarily.
Senator Dixon of Montana, who has
given his time to Colonel Roosevelt,
was defeated.
Later returns did not diminish the
heavy Democratic majority in the
house of representatives, but they did
play seesaw with Uncle Joe Cannon
and finally left him defeated by q ma
jority Of 900.
