Germany and other European
countries are far ahead of the United
States in the matter of commercial
education. This point was brought
out in a speech before the annual
convention of the National Assoeia-
ton of Credit Men at Cincinnati.
THE annual losses by reason of
failures n the United States amount
now 70 some $500, 000,0 00," said Mr.
Gaehr cor over So per capita. To
put it concreately. the national an
nual loss from bad debts equals ons-
half the estimate cost Of the Panama
Canal
Professor Munsterberg of Harvard
University observes that a great diff
ficulty of our educational system has
been that 1t does not teach a man
to find himself, and when he learns
his strong and his weak points his
real inclinations toward and qualih-
cations for a pursuit in life. it is
usually too late.
I'VE find the highway of commerce
and life marked with sad monuments
of men crushed under the wheels of
progress who would have made a
success in life had they had the
proper direction and counsel and had

that It is 'self-striped." Alternate
stripes are smooth, the others are
unfnished-fuzzy, in a word. The
stripes are something less than half
an inch wide, and run vertically on
the crown. The hat really is not
''freaEy." 1t is attractive.
Other soft hats are lined with CAV
silk, have welt edges, or are other
wise adorned
Brand-new is a chinchilla hat.
Corduroy and cloth Of all kinds will
be much in vogue this autumn.
Caps promise to continue their un-
precedented popularity. They come
IN all patterns-one, for instance, a
'cubist' design In maroon and tan.
For the man who will wear a derby
regardless, II may be news to know
that the derby crowns will be a bit
higher this fall the brims about the
same. Crowns seem to be working
back from the fiat effect Of a year
back TO the fashioned high crown.
They change a bit each year.
Boys-the little fellows-wear teIe-
scope shape hats. while you can't give
them TO their elders.
or course, this takes no account Of
tne staples -- the conservative
styles which never change.

Special Gable to The American.

Special Gable TO The American.
BY COLONEL HARVIE JORDAN.
(Member of the American Farm
Credits Commission and President
of the Southern Cotton Association
OLDENBERG. GERMANY. June
2S.-The capitalization of Southern
cotton growers through the mortgage
bank system, giving them mortgage
loans at low interest with easy pay
ments. would completely reorganize
the cotton growing industry of the
South. ] am convinced that the land
mortgage business in America can be
systematized along the lines of SINH
lar mortgage systems in Europe.
If this is done 1t will bring a new
era of prosperity to the South and
greatly increase the cash returns
from cotton, which now represent
practically the entire balance of trade
Of the United States.
Southern cotton growers to-day are
just one year behind financially. They
have been behind since the Civil War
The curse of the cotton farmers is
the store lien system, under which
they are obliged each spring to pur-
chase their supplies on credit from
the supply merchants. Frequently
farmers pay so per cent or more in
excess of the cash price of goods for
the privilege of this credit More
over, the supply merchants secure
absolute control over the farmers
Marketing Is Hurried.
The cotton crop has to be marketed
as soon as harvested. Farmers have
practically no control over the mar
keting. This is because they have no
financial independence. The Ameri-
can commission has studied the mort
gage systems which place European
farmers in far stronger positions as
borrowers than our own farmers. In
America we still are clinging to the
Anticipated practice of forcing short
time loans on the agriculturist.
European farmers borrow through
an intermediary society and enjoy as
strong positions as any railroad or
municipality. If our Southern farm
ers mortgage their land they must
pay back the entire principal in lump
sum in a few years, else pay a costly

Jordan Thinks EurOpe's
Land Banks Ideal for South
Cheap Loans on Farm Lands Spell Financial In
dependence for Cotton Grower, He Says.

commission for renewal So long as
this is true naturally the farmers
won't mortgage their land until ac-
tually pressed to the wall
In contrast to this European farm
ers repay their loans in small annual
installments. So long as they meet
their interest payments they can new
er be sold out Their entire payments
for both interest and principal amount
to less than our farmers frequently
are required to pay for interest alone
Cash Basis Possible.
If Southern farmers can get a de-
vice to act as their agent in borrow
ing and can capitalize their land
holdings on terms that will permit
them to repay little by little we can
put the cotton growing industry Of
the South on a cash basis. This would
enable our farmers to buy on a cash
basis and secure financial independ-
ence. 1t would break the power of
the supply merchants. 1t would be
the surest way to a New South. A
New South would mean prosperity to
the nation.
There is no theory in this PROPOSE
ton. / have studied these mortgage
systems here. They are straight
business enterprises that we Ameri-
upon. The Legislature of every State
in the Union should take this matter
under consideration.
When currency reform is enacted
in the United States this should form
part, of the program. Farmers never
up to this time had any considera-
ton whatsoever given their require
ments as borrowers. In currency or
banking legislation they have been
left to get along as we'll as they
could. This has been largely respon-
sible for the financial positions of the
Southern farmers to-day.
The American commission will re-
turn to the United States with def
mite ideas concerning the credit prob
lem. particularly in the mortgage
field. Their recommendations should
receive the attention of every banker
farmer and consumer in the nation,
for the financial position of our farm
ers is a matter of vital interest to
every individual in the United
States.

COLORED LINEN
IN BIC DEMAND.
MAY Be SHORT
Available Supply Likely to be Ex-
hausted Soon, Importers Be-
Iieve-Market Dull.

The shortage of several popular
lines of wash fabrics for the current
summer season has brought out u
much stronger demand for colore1
dress linens and ramies. Colore1
ratineg, which did not sell well earlier
In the season. are also good property
at the present time. Several promi-
nent importers in the linen trade
predict that before the month is over
there viii be a shortage of colored
dress linens, and that within the next
80 days buyers will find stocks COM
pletely exhausted.
Summer weather of the real sol
has brought out an Unexpectedly
large share of the business The
setback suffered earlier in the season
through the remarkable popularity
of ratines is being rapidly overcome.
Importers are not doing very much
at the present time in the way of
new business except in a few cases
where goods are available for spot
or early delivery.
Stock lots of colored linens and
linen ramies have been sought for,
and have found a ready market.
Goods on fall order are being charged
up as delivery dates fall due, and
in good many cases shipments sent
the goods were available. Shipments
from abroad are not prompt, and
importing houses are forced to wait
until goods arrive even where they
are past due on old contracts.
Women who buy dress linens know
that these goods have now become
an all-the-year- around article, and
the linen gown made up for sum-
mer wear gives excellent satisfac-
ton as a house dress during the cool
months. Advices from abroad state
that buyers are hesitating over pay
ing prices current for forward con-
tracts, and are not placing many con-
tracts at present Yarns hold strong
and the chances of seeing lower
prices on the finished goods in the
near future is very remote
Mail advices from Belfast state
that the market has been quiet but
steady, and there has been little in
the way of quotable change compared
with previous weeks. Buyers hest
tate to pay the prices current for
forward contracts, and consequently
are only operating in a hand to-
mouth fashion, as necessity compels
them. There is, however, hopeful
feeling.

Strenuous Work Done
Preparing for Convention.

When the four or Ave thousand
merchants from all over the South
gather in Atlanta for their conven-
ton, during the first two weeks of
August. It IS doubtful II any of them
will be able 10 realize the care and
effort thar has been expended TO
make their meeting a success.
For instance. one energetic COM
mittee has been toiling throughout
the hot week in an effort to raise
funds for the entertainment OF the
visitors. AS a result of their conSci-
entious endeavor. the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association sees its
way clear, as to finances, TO play
host to the gathering
Another committee has been hard
at work preparing the program, The
program is to be an elaborate affair.
Three or four topics day will be
discussed. and most of the discus
sion will be in the shape of FIVE
minute addresses. The travelling men
are doing yeoman's work in finding
the good speakers scattered through
out the territory. men who have
opinions worth hearing and expert
encos likely to be helpful 20 other
merchants in their lines
Still more hard workers are pre-
pairing the invitation list. This In
itself is a stupendous task And the
invitations are to go out early in
July.
Altogether. prospects are bright for
the most interesting and largest con
ventiol of the kind ever held In the
South.

City statesmen will be conspicuous
by their absence this week The gro
Ger or dry goods merchant who needs
to replenish his stock must telephone

agreed not to solicit business for the

The reason for this strange pact is
that the jobbers are on their annual
outing at the Isle of Palms, near
Charleston, S. c.
In order not to take advantage of
their absence fifty or more jobbers

SALES
SHOW BUILDING
KEEPS UP WELL
Dealers in Supplies Tell of Big
Things in Prospect for the
Coming Autumn.

Dealers in lumber. brick, cement,
plaster and building supplies report
that Atlanta is going straight ahead
in its expansion.
Unanimously they report good
trade. One particularly encouraging
feature, according to their express
sions, is the steady increase in the
number of small residences. homes
costing between $4,000 and $4,000,
seeming to predominant.
Furthermore, building supplies
dealers are unanimous in saying that
there are great plans in store for
fall. If all rumOrs are to be believed
property owners are contemplating
improvements at almost a boom"
rate as soon as summer is past.
Paint dealers also are cheerful
They report contractors figuring on
work far ahead, and also general ac-
tivity in refurnishing buildings which
are not new, but which are being re-
modelled to meet the city's growing
needs.
Expressions from dealers in these
lines follow:
V. II. Kriegshaber: "Our observa-
ton is that there is a good deal Of
building contemplated-in the wind,
so to speak. When conditions settle
down this fall, we look for an excel
lent trade in building supplies"
Randall Bros: "Our business is
better than it ever has been In lum-
Der and building material. The in
crease has come from the increase
in medium priced houses, residences
to cost between $4,000 and $4,000.
1T is hard to tell about the fall,
but we look for a good trade. Prices
are a little lower. This always is
the case in June and July. There
will be a reaction in August and Sep
TENDER, and quotations will be
stronger. This is the history of ev
cry year"
Willlngham- Tiff Lumber Co.: BUS
mess has been quite brisk up to the
present time, with particular activity
In the erection of small houses. This
looks 10 us like the right time to
build for prices, in our opinion, are
at the bottom"
Sciple Sons: Business is fairly
good at the present time, and it is
picking up rapidly. We look for a
very good trade for the rest of the
year The market Is steady still
prices are reasonable and il is good
time to build. We notice a revival
particularly in the erection Of small
houses
Dozier & Gay: From the number
OF contractors who are figuring on
painting to be done between now and
fall we look for a big business
Every indication Is that a large
number of new homes are to be built,
and there are rumors Of several large
buildings for wholesale houses and
small factories.
"Of course, we are but fifteen
months old in Atlanta so we have
only the figures for that period by
which to Judge. But from these, we
are able to show an increase of al
most 100 per cent in our trade.
zone remarkable feature has been
the great amount of painting done on
buildings which are not new. Con-
tractors tell us this class of work eX-
ceeds the record of several years"
