support and expand his business.
We lag behind many other great
countries of the modern world in at
tempting to do this. Systems of
rural credit have been studied and
developed on the other side of the
water while we left our farmers to
shift for themselves in the ordinary
money market. You have but to look
about you in any rural district to see
the result, the handicap and embar-
rassment which have been put upon
those who produce our food.
Conscious of this back Wardness
and neglect on our part the congress
recently authorized the creation of a
special commission to study the Vari-
Gus systems of rural credit which
have been put into operation in Eu-
rope, and this commission is already
prepared to report. Its report ought
to make it easier for us to determine
what methods will be best suited to
our own farmers.
Il hope and believe that the COM
rittees of the senate and house will
address themselves to this matter
with the most fruitful results, and |
believe that the studies and recently
formed plans of the department of
agriculture may be made to serve
them very greatly in their work of
framing appropriate and adequaet
legislation. 1t would be indiscreet
and presumptious in anyone to dog
Matte upon so great and many-sided
question, but | feel confident that
common counsel will produce the re-
suits we must all DESIRE

ORIGIN OF THE YULE LOG

The origin of the Yule log in Vir-
glnia is told in the Pictorial Review
Tor December by the widow of the
famous Confederate general, George
f. Pickett.
one time on old black man was
sitting i'll his little cabin on a noun
tain side on Christmas Eve listening
To the cold wind howl over a world
OF snow and wishing that he had a
lire to warm him, when he heard the
cry OF little child away out in the
cold. The old man hobbled to the
door and looked out across the snow
and the wind came rushing in and
made him shiver so that his "onliest
two teet Chartered with cold. Again
the cry came across the snow and he
wished with all his power of longing
that he could go out and find the un-
fortunate little one; for the plaintive
cry of little child always goes
straight to the heart. A third time
the cry came and "a miraculous
power seemed to fill the old mans
veins. His muscles became tense and
strong and he stepped from the
threshold into the snow, the crutch
falling back into the cabin.
In an instant he was walking over
the eXpanse Of frozen snow with an
activity he had not possessed since
he used to go ter camp meetin'.'
By and by he came to a little child
caught in a snowbank. He lifted the
child and as its little form touched
and the small burden seemed to give
him wings to speed back to the little
cabin. He put the child on the bed,
drew the ragged quilt around it and
looked about to see if there might be
a piece of furniture of which he
could make a fire to warm his small
guest.
At that instant he saw great log
roll across the threshold and into
the fireplace. The little child was
looking at it with eyes like stars and
they sent CLEANS of light that kin
died the log with the most brilliant
fire the old man had ever seen, and
the dingy little room was filled with
radiance and warmth that brought
a glow to the soul as we'll as to the
body and seemed to flood the world
with light.
AS the light wrapped the child in
a shining glory he laughed laugh
that was like a song of the heart and
floated up and away. The old man
turned his eyes to where the fire
burned and watched the flames leap
in opalescent tints over the log form
ing the shape of a cross in fire.

A FRIENDLY MESSAGE

President Wilson's message to
Congress- this week was concise and
lpinted. He devoted considerable
lOrtion of it to discussing the Condi-
Tons of the farmers and his words
lldicate that he appreciates the
handicap under which the tillers of
the soil have been Iaboring and the
iecessity Of legislation in their be-
|ialf. The part of his message re-
biting to this subject was as follows:
The farmers, of course, ask and
Should be given no special privilege,
such as extending to them the credit
y the government itself. What they
iced and should obtain is legislation
#hich will make their own abundant
ind substantial credit resources
8Vailable as a foundation for joint,
Oncerted local action in their own
lehalf in getting the capital they
bust use. 1t is to this we should
low address ourselves.
1T has, singularly enough, come
b pass that we have allowed the in
alStry of our farms to lag behind the
3ther activities of the country in its
aAVelopment. | need not stop to tell
spu how fundamental to the life of
le nation is the production of its
bod.
Our thoughts may ordinarily be
AOncentrated upon the cities and the
lives of industry, upon the cries Of
she crowded market place and the
Bangor of the factory but it is from
HE quiet interspaces of the open
alleys and the free hillsides that we
raw the sources of life and of pros
Aerity, from the farm and the ranch,
rom the forest and the mine.
Without these every street would
Ee silent, every office deserted,
Fiery factory fallen into disrepair.
md yet the farmer does not stand
kpon the same footing with the for
Eter and the miner in the market Of
fedit. He is the servant of the sea-
pms. Nature determines how long
le must wait for his crops, and Will
pot be hurried in her processes. He
Pay give his note, but the season OF
Is maturity depends upon the sea-
Pm when his crop natures, lies at
he gates of the market where his
foducts are sold. And the security
Pc gives is of a character not known
p the brokers' office or as familiar
as it might be on the counter of

The agricultural department OF

to execution.
