Easy Credit for Farmers.

From the point of view of the
! farmers and settlehs In Wiscon-
sin who need more ready money or
more appropriate terms. the land
mortgage association act passed by the
last legislature is one of he most i'm.
portant bits of legislation written into
the statute books, say members of the
| state board of public affairs.
While congress and he legislatures
of other states were debating the
problem of providing appropriate cred
it facilities for the farmer and set
tier and stopped there, Wisconsin act
ually passed the necessary Law.
Generally speaking. the purpose of
this law is to make land in Wisconsin
more fluid security. This the act
proposes to accomplish by FOND is
| sues, the bonds to be secured by first
mortgage on real estate. These bonds
will be negotiable and can be passed
from hand to had as readily as actual
| money.
The association 20 be formed under
this act will be similar to the joint
stock mortgage banks OF Germany, OF
which there we're 81, with outstand.
ing loans aggregating two and one
quarter billion dollars in 1911.
To operate under the Wisconsin act
Is or more persons must incorporate
with capital stock of not less than
$4,000. The funds of the association
are loaned on first mortgage securi-
ties, and the association may deposit
the securities with the state treasurer.
and then issue negotiable bonds equal
in amount to the securities depos-
tied
The act makes every provision for
safeguarding the purchasers OF these
bonds. The associations formed I'M
der the act and their operations are
completely under the control and SUI
pervision of the state commissioner
of banking They are to be examined
by him periodically. and generally are
subject to as close or even closer SUI
pervision and scrutiny than are state
banks. The law provides that at no
time shall the amount OF bonds issued
exceed the amount of mortgages or
deposit with the state treasurer

reau. but where the record is to be
taken on the spot where a crime oc.
surred. such as on a wall or any OBJ
ject which cannot be moved and where
the print is impossible TO photograph
on account of lighting or other reason.
He makes use OF very fine color
powder so as TO dust it over the prints.
which are of more or less greasy
nature, and in this way the powder ad.
heres to the finger print and takes all
its gradations. Then specially pre-.

and the powder adheres TO it so as
to give a good copy OF the original
such paper is prepared with mixture
of beeswax and paraffin. adding a few
drops Of gylcerine.

FIRST: The garage man
