Agricultural Credit
System in Hungary

Hungary is the Hungarian Land Mort
gage Institute, founded in 1868. The
government contributed 100000 of
the capital stock of the company and
the balance was subscribed by found
ers' who, however, were only requir
ed to pay in 10 per cent Of the amount
Of the stock for which they subscrib-
ed. These founders receive 4 dividend
limited to 8 per cent Of their subscrip-
tions. Besides the founders, every
land owner who placed a mortgage
with the bank is a member of the
bank. Only mortgagors who have a
mortgage Indebtedness to the bank Of
at least $4,000 have any personal
voice in the affairs Of the bank. The
other members may elect representa-
tiyes to the general meeting. OF
course as soon as farmers mortgage
expires his membership in the bank
ends.
Under this form Of organization the
Hungarians attempted to secure the
cooperative principle Of represents
tion Of the borrowing farmers, while
at the same time placing the greater
part Of the power in the hands OF the
founders. Only the founders have the
power TO elect the president and board

Budapest, Hungary, June 2o.-In a
special train provided by the Hungar-
ian government the American com
mission on agricultural cooperation
was brought here from Fiume, the
principal hungarian seaport.
The agriculture Of Hungary lacks
the extreme intensiveness which was
so marked in Italy. probable because
OF insufficient labor. Rural Hungary
more closely resembles rural America
than any other country in Europe.
In years past Hungary, like the Unit
ed States. resorted to foreign immi-
grafton to increase her population
But wars and the too rapid increase
OF foreign peoples prevented any as
simnation and today in Hungary
there are Magyars, Germans, slovaks,
Roumanians, Ruthenians, Croats, Ser
vians. Saxons and what not, all cling
ing to their languages and fighting
against race extinction. In every at.
tempt made to further the agricul
tural interests Of the country these
conditions had to be taken into con
sideration. The big estates owned BY
the nobility complicated matters. Th'
serfs were given their freedom just a
the time when the landed nobility wal
financially in the worst condition.
But despite these handieaps thl

was Doc Crosse in centerfield for the
Bean Eaters. He demonstrated be-
yond the shadow Of a doubt that ball
player can come back and continue to
dissipatei For instance, Doc played an
errorIess game and smoked a big cigar
all during the contest, True he struck
out seven or eight times, but it was
the general opinion that his cigar was
SO large that It interfered somewhat
with his batting eye.
Anyhow, it all goes to show that it
takes an organization to win ball
games. The organization Of the Bean
Eaters was complete, from the team,
down to the mascot and colors, or
probably better. from the moscot and
coiors down to the team, for the play
ers to man give entire credit for
their victory to Miss Ella Luce, their
mascot, She was there with several
yards Of purple and white ribbon tied
to perfectly nice little cane and no
coed ever urged her braves on to
battle more ardently than did the pret.
ty mascot Of the Bean Eaters.
After the battle, the vietors proceed
ed to the McMaster house, on North
Fourth street, where a banquet was
spread by the hostess and each man
on the team. for his deeds Of yalor on
the diamond, was served, by special
order, with an extra Slsh Of beans.

The failure Of the Hungarian Land

PERKINS SEEKS PHOTO
FROM DIZZY HEIGHT

To secure series of .up-to-the-
minute panorama pictures OF the city,
as well as the harbor OF Honolulu
tempted Roscoe W. 1e. KRIS, L io.. 81
photographer, to scale tie dizzy
heights to the top-most pinnacle of the
big United States naval boating crane
yesterday afternoon. - III.
Armed with number of large
cameras, besides other paraphernalia,
Perkins, with an assistant, having
first secured the coveted permission
from the local naval authorities, be-
gan the climb Of an upright steel lad
der which scars to distance of over
one hundred feet above the surface
of the water.
The feat is one that will easily go
down in history as equal to that per-
formed many years ago when Vanni-
man, dashed to the mast of a big sail
ing ship, caught a sweeping view of
the city and its environments.
At the extreme elevation, the wind
at times reached the velocity of hur-
Iicane. and the scaling of the crane
was attended with much difficulty.
