Special to Independent.
Dossenheim, Germany, July "A.
The cashier of the RaitfeiSen
bank of this village, who is also
the postmaster and a conSidera-
BILE political figure in his commu-
nifty. welcomed to his house to-
day five members of the Ameri-
can Commission on Agricultural
I,o-Dperation.
Records of the DoSsenheim
bank showed it to be society
tof 295 members, about half of
whom were laborers in nearby
quarry, but who maintained
small parcels of land they work
ed with the aid of their families,
and about half of whom were
small farmers owning or rent
ing on an average 215 acres of
land each. The cultivation of
these farms was extremely in
tensive truck farming it would
have been called in the United
States.
One of these members entered
and counted out ten marks from
a bag which he deposited in the
bank. Evidently the visit to the
bank was to the depositors' mind
something of a social event. He
started conversation with the

Blowing Up In The Ninth.

There is an expressive Amer
5can sporting phrase that de-
scribes the condition of an ath-
aete or team of athletes in some
branch of sport who, after a
brilliant winning streak, sud-
edenly go to pieces and lose all
and more than they have gained.
We mean, when we say a base
ball team "blew up" that the
psychological moment arrived
when the heretofore beaten adj
versaries suddenly rally, seize
upon a temporary confusion or
weakness of the leaders and
hammer them all over the lot.
Poor Bulgaria has undergone
that fate. In the recent alliance
of the Balkan states Except Ro-
1lmania) against Turkey, Bull
2aria was the acknowledged
leader. It's army was the largest
its arms and munitions the best,
it's performance the most bril-
liant, it's victories the most de-
ecisive and it's valor the most in
spring. Quite the greatest part
of the credit for the humiliating
defeat of Turkey belongs to the
bravery and dash of the Bulga-
rians. None appreciated this so
much as Bulgaria itself and as
a result the allies were soon at
loggerheads over the division of
the spoils and conquered coun-
try. Bulgaria demanded more
than Servia and Greece were
willing to concede and because
Bulgaria attempted to take by
force what it could not get by di-
plomacy, the late allies turned
up it and aided by Roumania and
the but lately vanquished Tur-
key, have administered the Sc
verest sort of drubbing at the
very scenes of it's recent brilliant
victories. Lula BrugaS, Kirk
Kilisseh and Adrianople shed es-
pecially bright renown on the
Bulgarian arms but now the Bull
gars have been ignominiuosly
driven from those places and
they do not seem able to present
a firm front to even the weakest
of the former allies or even to
the lately defeated Turks, while
the Roumanians, who took no
part in the earlier fray, now in
wade with an army fresh and ca
ger for conquest and push the
Bulgars helpless before them.
The poor Bulgars present the
most striking example of elbow
ing up in the ninth. Fort

cashier and it was apparetn that
he was a bit nettled when the
cashier explained that the pres
ence of visitors made it impossi-
BILE for him to indulge his friend
in the usual amount of village
gossip. These conversations at
the bank are an important fac
tor in the conduct of the bank.
They typify the intimate rela-
tons that exist between the
managers of the institutions and
the members and it is this in
timacy which makes the banks
conservative, for everyone
knows everyone's business.
1t is upon such deposits as the
one made during the visit of the
Americans that the Dossenheim
institution depends chiefly for
it's funds wherewith to make
loans to it's members. 1t may
also borrow from the Central
Cooperative bank with which
it is affiliated. At the present
time the demands for loans are
heavy and it has a debit at the
Central institution. The insti-
tuition commands about $4,000
to finance it's 295 members.
For their deposits the mem
bers of the bank receive A per
cent interest. Deposits are also
accepted from non-members, but
only 3 3-4 per cent interest is
paid them-an unusual pro-
ceeding which, it would seem
difficult to accept as good bust
ness policy. Only about 5000
in cash is kept at the bank. 1t
is the object of the olcal bank to
lend out all of the money which
it receives to it's members. If,
however, the demands for loans
are insufficient to keep all of
the funds at home, the surplus
is deposited with the Central
bank which pays the local bank
49, per cent interest. Vixen
the funds of the local bank are
insufficient to meet demands for
loans, it borrows from the GEN.
trail bank and pays a per cent in
terest on such loans. The loans
are made to farmers either on
their own note and without 9TH
err security than the liability
which they have assumed upon
entering the bank or, If their
standing is not particularly
good, upon their note endorsed
by one or two sureties. Some of
the money is loaned on mort
cages, although the central in
stitution discourages this prac-
tice.
The institution is conducted
by a board of managers, the
president of which dropped in
at the bank during the visit of
the commissioners. He was a
village merchant and a very
good type of man.
