The American Farmer.

All things recalled, wouldn't 1t be
the part of craftsmanship to do con-
occasionally for the American farmer?
He's one-fourth of your population.
and the nations best hope. The
American merchant borrows at five
per cent. The American stock gam
bier, producing nothing, accomplish
ing nothing, merest leech living by
toll Of others, borrows for even
less. The American farmer, with all
that can be said to his good and solv-
ent advantage, must and does pay Sk
per cent
And all the time the savings and
postal banks are bulging with billions.
If the government would make two
blades Of grass grow where but one
has grown beforehand publicly it
would pay-the wide-fung chance lies
open. Let it model action on French
or German lines, and place the farmer
on borrowing par with the merchant
the manufacturer and the stock job
ber Let it evolve a system of farm
loans which shall put those savings
and postal bank billions at a per cent
within the farmers borrowing reach.

PARADISE FOR THE BIRDS
Providence Seems to Have Provided
Temperate Zone for the Feathered
Friends Of Man.

UP in the far country where the
timber fails, the calendar is respect
ed. There Is no summer before the
of1cial day set for it. The ground is
held fast by frost until June is we'll
started. There are flurries of snow,
wild, bitter winds, a sky that has no
mercy. And then. suddenly, the wind
shirts and comes out of the south. 1t
Is summer then with a leap.
The interest of the temperate zone
in the northland is that 1t is there
that have gone a great many of the
migrating birds which paid US few
days visit and passed on. For all its
tnhospitality to man, this country in
summer is paradise for birds. Its
marshes are safe refugees from two
and four-footed enemies. There is ex-
haustless material for nests. And out
of the pools come myriads of insects,
food that does not fail until the time
for the southwark bird movement ar
rives.
Some man has said that there is
no God north of latitude So He did
not inquire as to what the birds
might have thought Of that.-Toledo
