New Works Land Bark.

In the LIST of September the Law pro-
yding for the creation of a state land
bank for the farmers of New York
Went into effect, and already tho or
ganization of an institution which VIII
make long time loans 10 farmers is
well under way. Sixty per cent of the
necessary capital has already been
subscribed and the saving ard loan as
! sociations are taking hold of their new
activities in a manner which promises
immediate results. The men VINO have
| interested themselves in the land bank
are confident that before snow flies
the new system of agricultural credit
will be available for ever farmer in
the state.
When the land bank Is in operation
Governor Glynn will have accom-
plished the reform in agricultural cred
It upon which he has been working
since he took office, and the farmers
of New York will at once be able to
change their present mortgages into
land bank loans and thereby makes a
saving Of at least $240 ON every $1,000
mortgage.
The difference between the ordinary
! mortgage and a land bank loan Is In
the method Of paying off the principal.
In the ordinary mortgage the borrow
er pays per cent interest each year
and his principal at the end of his
loan. Under the land bank system the
borrower pays part Of his principal
each year in addition to his interest
| BY paying this small additional sum
| the borrower gets compound interest
each year on part Of his principal in
stead of permitting the entirep rim
cipal to draw interest for the creditor
| To take a concrete case, On thou
| sand dollar loan renewed for ten years
! at 6 per cent under the old system the
farmer pays $50 interest each year
or $500 in all and the principal at the
end of the loan, making his total pay
| Inent $1,000. Under the land bank sys-
tenn the farmer pays 1856 each year
| for d thousand dollar loan for ter
years or S1.35S.86 altogether. In othel
words, his $1,000 loan costs him

" as one Of the essential qualities Of
diplomacy. Despite the strained relations Of
European governments Immediately preced-
ing the outbreak Of hostilities. diplomatic
communications among them were marked
by almost excessive courtesy which was

broader idea IS that the first and highest
function OF diplomacy is the promotion OF
genuine good will among nations. This con-
ception was wonderfully exsmp.iled in the
work of John Hay

A year ago, on Labor Day, CSept. I, 1919,
there came an awful whaCk,
A thousand fiery thunderbolts nearly scooted
the barn off the track;
The lightning a board off sent, part of II in
the sorghum patch
If the lightning burned the barn down, we
would have to dig and scratch.
The lightning hit the top and ran to the
ground:
think that barn must be sound.
Mrs. Goble and her daughter were the only
ones at home,
old road to roam
The absent one had gone to see her old
friend Blanche Medd,
When she heard that loud clap of thunder
and wondered if the lightning struck my
old cat Ted
The Lord kept the barn from burning
He kept the barn from burning because He
loves us so.
