tary McAdoo has released to the banks

Savings bank, 1.-The cotton crop Is the
principal yield. The plantation owners
are usually in such dire circumstances
that as soon as their crop Is ready Tor
the market 1t is marketed and the
money must be forthcoming immedl-
ately to meet debts.
In Iowa, the farmers are In a pros
porous condition. ! know one farmer
who has most of his last years corn
crop In storage. He told me recently
that the present corn stand Is not yet
out of danger and that no matter what
comes, he will have practically good
crop, because he will have his last
years corn to sell. !. Thus you see. the
farmers here are In position where
they do not have to dump their crops
on the market as soon as possible In
order to get money with which to pay
their debts. For the most part. the
Iowa farmer has no pressing indebted
ness"
