the First State Industrial Wage Loan
Society. On the other hand. many per-
sons of scanty incomes are likely to well
come the advent Of that organization. Its
purpose is TO compete with the loan
sharks and thus eliminate their abuses.
making il easy for persons who earn
wages to borrow when a pressing need
arises. without getting into the grip of
merciless money lenders. Responsible
persons organized the new concern.
which owes it's existence TO the efforts put
forth by members of the Chicago Indus
trial Club to draw the teeth of loan
sharks. They caused to be framed and
then urged the passage by the legislature
of the new law under which the Indus
trial Wage Loan Society will operate.
These practical business men recognize
that frequently persons with small in
comes, particularly young married men
who work for wages. have TO face heavy
expenses when they are without ready
funds to meet the emergency. In these
circumstances there is surely no disgrace
in borrowing. In most cases there is no
good reason for concealing the fact that
the borrowers have gone in debt.

Flour Mill Seeks
Dry Farmed Wheat

Impressed with the high quality
of wheat raised in Nevada and east
ern California by dry farming, Mana
ger Van Nagel of the Riverside Mill
company plans to secure from the
professors OF the university some
data on the principles of dry farm
ing to be used in furthering the i'll
terest in this class of agriculture.
1t is found that the wheat raised
by dry farming, especially if it is OF
the best varieties, is hard wheat,
full Of gluten, and approaching in
quality the Kansas turkey red wheat
which is imported at considerable eX-
pense for the higher grades of flour
On the contrary the wheat which
has been irrigated is soft and low i'll
gluten. Mr. Van Nagel believes thai
the raising of wheat with as few Il
rigations as possible will improve
the product, and he is seeking a
means of placing more of the right
kind OF information among the far
mers of the state.
The only dry farm wheat he has
secured in Nevada this year was hali
dozen carloads from the vicinity
of Wells. He also purchased dry
farm wheat from eastern California

SENATORS HAVE TILT OVER
RECENT TARIFF MEASURES
Industrial and Financial Disturbances
Predicted by Leading Repubi-
cans Fail to Arrive, Asserts Stone
of Missouri

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2l.-The
effect of the new tariff law on the
high cost of living and on industrial
laws furnished the material for some
lively passages today in the senate.
Senator Smoot produced pam
phlet setting forth that reduction Of
wool and woolen duties would not
result in a material reduction in the
cost OF clothing. Senator Stone OF
Missouri interrupted him.
when the tariff bill was on the
floor said Mr.. Stone. 'the Republ:-
cans were prophesying industrial AMI
financial disaster as result of the
measure. How can the senator now
say that prices will not be reduced.
We have seen nothing OF the closed
factories, the ruined mills or the
squalid soup houses the senator
painted so wildly. Now he tells us
the cost of living is not reduced.
Why, the average standpat Republ'-
can, il he prays at all, is muttering
supplications to the skies day and
night, that a panic may fall upon the
country But no panic is in sight
There will be no panic. Let the SEN
ator withhold his prophecies as to
the cost of living until we can see
the real results of the Democratic
tariff law"
