rendered by the deposit-currency. When
a bank makes g. loan, its profit is the same
whether it grants to the borrower its de-
mand obligation in the form Of a note or OF
a deposit account The two differ, how
ever. In some matters OF duration and
distance of circulation, which are we'll
known and obvious But the borrower
expense. between the deposit-currency
and the bank note. Because he lives in a
rural community. away from city. and
wishes to use notes. there is no reason
why his medium Of exchange should cost
him more than the deposit-currency does
the city man (as is now the case).
The point Of great Importance in con-
nectton with bank notes-although they
do far less work than the deposit-cur-
rency-iS to recognize that they. as wen
as the deposit-currency, originate from
the private operations of discount and
deposit. In proportion to the rise ana
fall in the amount Of exchanging goods,
will more or less notes be called for. &C
cordingly as notes are needed by the
community instead or the deposit-cuT-
rency. That is, the issue of such notes
cannot be performed properly by any IN
stitution not directly in touch with the
borrowing public. AS the government is
not in such touch, it would be impossible
for 1t to issue these notes. In the COM
mon interest 1t may supervise the system,

Note Issue Not State Function.
If the -deposit-currency cannot be pro-
vided by the government, then how about
the function Of note issue? The sovereign
control over money" remains. Our gold
standard and its direction lies above all
private modification. But who should
control the issue of notes. also used as
medium Of exchange? 1t is patent that
the proposed reform makes no change
i'm the issue of greenbacks by the Treas
ury. Whether wise or unwise, that ques-
ton is not now raised. Likewise, the is
sue of bank notes has long been per-
mitted to the national banks, although
the supervisory action of the state is ex-
ercised in many ways under the national
banking law. by regulations, examina
tions and the like.
The proposal to reconstruct the sys-
tenn of bank note issues raises no new
nor fundamental question. 1t is not a
choice between government issues and
bank issues. II is merely a matter Of
Encouragement by which the national
banks may retain their present issues
if they prefer-or have them transferred
to a common agency representing all
the banks, yet supervised by govern
ment officials, and so that this CO.
operative agency may issue in the COM
ton as may be needed in any time of
stress

Washington, d. c., Aug. 10.-My last
bulletin gave forecasts of disturbance
to cross the continent Aug. IA to Is,
warm wave Aug. 13 to II. cool a
Aug. 16 to 20. The first part of this
disturbance will be a continuance of
the great hot wave Of August, and a
continuance Of the drought. Not a
general drought, but a drought in Sec
lions or spots, with thunder spot
showers in other spots.
The last part Of this disturbance
crossing the continent, Aug. 16 to 20.
will bring unusually cool weather, with
an increase of rain in many places.
While this cool wave is crossing the
continent, light frosts are expected in
III northern spring wheat sections. A
great fall in temperature will follow
the passage Of the warm wave.
The next disturbance will reach the
Pacific coast about Aug. 20, cross the
Pacific slope about the close of Aug.
81, the great central valleys Aug. % to
"a, eastern sections Aug. Is. The
warm wave will cross the Pacific slope
about Aug. 20, the great central val
leys Aug. %. eastern sections Aug. "a.
The cool wave will cross the Pacific
slope about Aug. 23, the great central
valleys Aug. %, eastern sections Aug.
81.
With this disturbance moderate tenn
peratures are expected and less than
usual rainfall as a general average,
but thunder showers will continue Civ
ing to a few favored localities some
relief from the severe drought and hot
weather.
/ am expecting less than usual rain

during August and September, but the
thunder showers will continue TO re-
lieve some places, both from excessive
heat and rought.
Cotton, late corn nj spring wheat
is expected to be damaged by the heat
and rought in some places, probably in
more than half OF the corn and cotton
sections, and for these two rop we
may safely calculate productions less
than the ten-year average.
The week c~entering on Sept, 20 is
expected to be the warmest and driesk
of the month. This will delay the
frosts and give northern spring wheat
time to mature. Dry weather in Sep
TENDER is most to be feared.
/ cannot agree with the scientists Of
our national agricultural department..
AS / see 1t. plant life consists Of a cur
rent of electricity passing down n
stem and into the earth. Damp soil Is
necessary because dry soil viii mt
conduct electrical current, and a soil
largely composed of vegetable mould
is better than clay, because a pulver-
ICED, dry, level surface will hold D
necessary moisture. Pulvertzed IRON
ore adds largely to plant growth be-
cause 1t increased the electric current.
The life force of plants-the electric
current-comes from space, carries
DldHL AbDu anu ttiAEAp NAAI RA%AS
through the top surface OF the leaves,
depositing the plant food where need
ed. The electric current passes into
the earth. Gases that are generated IN
the plant by electric current and not
used by the plant pass UP the outer
sections Of the stem and out OF the
plant through the under surface OF the
leaves, and this is called the respira-
ton or breathing process Of the plant.
A government scientist is seldom
progressive. They can draw their sal
aries without the hard study neces-
sary to progress. II they would give
up the old foolish idea that plant toon
comes from the soil and study aErt-
culture from the standpoint Of cleo
tricity being the life force of plant life
we might hope for progress.
The scientific world must accept
electric magnetism as the life force OF
the universe, the solar system, OF
planetary organisms, animal and veg
etable life, the activities of ether and
the atom, condensing the ~attenuated
matter Of space and carrying 1t to
centers Of the universe.

CHILDREN CUT
ICE in TRADE
If THE GRocERYMAN CAN GET
YOUNGSTERS HE IS PRETTY
THE GOOD WILL or THE
SURE TO SECURE IT FROM 9TH.
Err MEMBERS OF FAMILY.

A few days ago the travellers re-
porter was talking with a suburban
grocer when a customer came In and
bought a couple of dollars worth OF
goods for which he paid cash. AS the
customer walked away the grocer turn
ed to the writer and said:
That's one of the best customers
I've got, and his an has never been
on my books. He pays cash and he
buys almost everything that he uses in
his home from me. He had been IN
the habit OF buying from III OF the
large stores down town. but ! got his
trade without soliciting him, and 1t
cost me less than q 25-cent piece
How did you do lit !" he was asked.
II did 1t by treating his children
to an occasional apple, orange OF q
piece OF candy. I had been located
here a couple OF months when this
mans little girl began running over
every few days after a loaf OF bread,
thing which they had forgotten to or
der from their regular grocer. Not
every time, but quite often, ! would
hand the little girl IN small favor.
AS time passed she came oftener, as
she would always be ready to remind
her mother that she could get what
she wanted In q minute, One day the
man YOU just cav leave here dropped
in and bought a nice bill OF goods; we
had q little talk about the weather,
about politics. etc, and 1T wasn't a
month until I had his trade. I attrib-
ute the landing OF this customer to nc
one but the little girl whom 7 had
treated. The small grocer who YER
looks an opportunity to make friends
with the fellows Of his neighborhood
is ignoring the best trade-getter he
could ind anywhere"
One often wonders how it Is In This
time or rush and hurry and big stores
which employ many clerks and vie
with each other Ia giving quick serv-
ice that the little fellow stuck of in
the corner Of somebody's yard man
ages to eKe out an existence. IL the
truth were always known 1t would be
found that quite often the little fellow
ID slowly getting where he can come
down town and enter the game with
the big ones. If he is wise he culti-
Yates the friendship of the children.

COURTESY IN TRADE
l ls One Of the Biggest Dividend.
That Can Ever Come 20 q BUSH
ness Man.

Courtesy in business pays the big
gest dividends OF anything else. A
business which does 0 believe that
M which does not use it has its days
numbered when 1t is launched.
Courtesy costs nothing, yet many Of
the largest industries the country now
boasts can lay the credit for their
success to it. Capital means much
but courtesy means more.
Especially has the salesman q use
for courtesy. 1t opens doors and un-
limbers stiff necks where nothing else
would work. 1t enables n to hold
trade once secured.
We cannot overestimate the value
of courtesy. We can never tell when
a kind word, a polite action, will put
