lustments OF banking conditions In
detail, and showed that the locking
up OF money in our subtreasury and
in the vaults of our banks were the
primary causes of the following
evils:
/. Our periodical financial crisis.
Q Speculation at our financial
centers, and the subsequent wide
fluctuations in the values Of securit-
les representing not far from two
fifths OF the value Of the entire
property OF the country;
3 An inadequate amount OF mon
ey for the movement Of the crops In
the fall, and frequently for the start
ing off OF the processes OF agricul-
ture in the spring, thus greatly re-
tarding legitimate business, and de-
pressing prices to farmers and other
primary producers.
He also showed how our present
banking system necessitates the with
drawal from agricultural, Industry
and commerce OF hundreds Of mil
lions OF dollars and their investment
in bonds, in order to serve bankers
as secondary reserves. thus tying
the banks and the stock markets to-
gether, to the injury of both and OF
the commerce Of the country; and,
finally, he showed how the concen-
tration OF the control Of the rail-
roads. the trusts, and the financial
institutions Of New York City In the
hands Of two groups Of financiers
give them control Of the banking re-
serves of the entire country, and
through them, OF our credit machin-
cry.
He then declared that these evils
clearly indicate the nature OF the
remedy that must be applied, namely;
the cooperative management Of the
reserves Of the government and Of
the banks ID such q manner that the

SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS
HAD INTERESTING SESSION

The Sunday school primary teach
ers' union met last evening at the
Brethren church. Miss Delhi Of the
Grace Reformed Sunday school gave
an interesting review Of the Ninth
Chapter Of St. Johns "stories and.
story Telling" Mrs. Hobart taught
the third grade primary lesson, "A
Good Samaritan" for next Sunday
morning. In spite of the unfavor-
able weather about thirty teachers
were present which attested to the
heipfulness Of these meetings. There
are only two or three Sunday schools
in town whose teachers have fail
ed to appreciate the value Of these
lessons taught by Mrs Hobart. state
organizer Of primary sunday school
workers.

TYPHOID FEVER AND TUBER-
CULOSIS ARE EXEMPTED.

An error was made in the order
sent out a few weeks ago from the
office OF the state registrar, w. j.
v. Deacon, at Topeka, regarding pub
lie funerals and contagious diseases.
In a special order received by City
Clerk Worley the local vital statis-
tics registrar, Mr.. Deacon says that
It was through an error that typhoid
fever and tuberculosis we're included
in the list that was first sent out,
and that public funerals will be al
lowed in cases of death from either
of these two diseases. They must
be Immediately reported to the health
officer, however, for the purpose of
disinfection.
In the original order cholera,
smallpox, diptheria. epidemi cere-
bro spinal meningitis, acute anter-
ior-poliomyelitis, scarlet fever, mea-
sles and whooping cough were also
included in the list and the order
prohibiting public funerals in any
cases, where persons have died from
these maladies, still holds good and
must be observed.

The above verbal resolution was
adopted yesterday at a meeting OF
the county commissioners and the
township trustees and placed on Tile
by County Clerk King.
This means that this spring the
county and the townships will work
together in improving the principal
roads of Dickinson county. The town
ships will bear half Of the expense
and the county the other half in
bettering the county highways.
The roads to be improved Will be
selected by the county commission
ers. They have spent several months
in considering this move. They nave
studied the different highways and
will chose only the roads that VIII
benefit the county as a whole.
At first the trustees proposed im-
proving more roads but after care

adopted to construct only 100 miles
of good roads as beginning, We

"The banking system OF the Unit

The farmers of Dickinson county
would better be careful in selecting
their seed corn this spring, accord
ing to the report of H, M. Cottrell,
agricultural commissioners of the
Rock Island lines. The conditions
of the soil for planting are particu-
larly favorable along the Rock Is
land lines in Kansas, In most sec
tions fall rains furnished "a good
supply Of moisture that has been
largely increased by unnsuNs heavy
snow fall. The crops in 1911 as a
rule were light owing to the ex-
ceptional drought. This left a sur
plus of plant food in the soil that
would have been used up by a full
crop, and the severe freezing this
winter has also increased the pro-
ductivity of the land. The present

100 Miles of Good
Roads for Dickinson

day $50 let us construct only 100
miles of good roads at first as an
experiment. II we find that this
move has been success we can Inn
prove more highways"
An Advantage 30 the Farmers.
Good roads are essential to the
advancement in agriculture. The
farmer has to take his products to
market at some time and usually
when the prices are the highest. II
the roads are bad. he will be delayed
and often will lose many dollars,
for the market changes continually.
Bad roads are also hard on horses
and worn out horses are not wanted
on farm. Good roads will give the
farmer chance to take his goods
to the market on time and without
any exertion on the horses. He can
make better time and at times make
two trips to the market in one day,
where he only makes one over poor
roads.
1t is a good move the county COM
missioner and township trustees have
taken and they VIII be backed by the
majority of Dickinson's progressive
farmers.
Merchants Should Encourage Move.
Not only is the farmer benefited
by good roads. but the merchants in
different towns over the county.
Good roads leading to town viii
bring the farmers to that place to
trade. A good road is always pre-
feFable. It is mutual to both farmer
and city merchant to have good roads.

Seed Corn Selection
Important for Farmers

soil conditions are favorable for
high yield throughout this territory.
The seed corn situation is most SER
ious and unless extreme precautions
are taken in selecting and testing
the seed, there will be less than
half stand in many sections and
the benefits of the good soil condi-
tions will be lost, The prolonged
drought of last summer weakened
the vitality of the corn, In many
l;ptaSces late rains and nnfayorable
weather kept it from ripening pro-,
perly, and the early and severe freezes
came while the kernels were full
of moisture, killing outright a large
per cent of the germs and weakening
others. The only safe way this
spring will be to test the germinat-
ing quality of every seed ear.

ciples or banking and currency re-
form, which are not a matter OF

The League has no bill of its own

ognizes in the unanimous report or

the greatest step that has ever been
taken in this country to provide

made up Of members of congress
from both political parties and from
all sections of the country, and
believe that its report is the first
unanimous report ever made by such
congressional commission on SO
broad question. We believe that
this report furnishes a working basis
for legislation in congress, and we
are confident that the measure that
