Schif Lauds New
Farm Credits Bill

ITHACA, Feb. 4.-When Jacob II.
Schiff. the New York banker was in
Ithaca he discussed the agricultural
credits bill of the Wilson administration
as follows:
president Wilson has been tremen-
dously successful in many things, but II
he carries this through 1t will over
shadow everything else done so far be-
cause the prosperity OF the country de-
ponds on the prosperity of the country
people.
'The farmer needs the rural credit
system. He suffers from many failures
made twenty or thirty years ago by
companies organized TO lend money on
farm properties. Borrowers and lenders
each tried to get the advantage of the
other and the foremost of them broke
down.
Agricultural credit have been suffer
ing ever since. No system will be sue
cessful unless 1t issin the hands of the
borrowers with a mutual vredit system
such as they have in Germany. The
life OF the farmer may be hard, but il
is dignifed and he is the backbone OF
the nation"

Imports of Potatoes and
Beef Show an, Increase
Department of Agriculture Statement Discloses
Some Effects Of the New Tariff

the supply was unusually short ow-
ing to the drouth of the previous
year"
The following figures show that
there has been an enormous increase
in the importation of potatoes since
the new tariff act went into effect on
October A: July, $50 bushels; Au-
gust, 10,411 bushels; September, S,106
bushels; October, 472,052 bushels;
November. 764,S29 bushels
Concerning the number of beef cat
tie in the United States the report
says that there has been a consider
able decline in the number of beef
cattle and an increase in price since
1910.
In 1910 the number of beef cattle
amounted to 41,17S,0O0, and on Janu-
airy l, 1914, the number was 35,S55,-
600. The imports of beef increased
from 6,000,735 pounds in October
1913, to 11,S20,SS9 in November, and
to 16,074,520 in December, thus
showing that the new tariff has led
to largely increased imports, and
this applies as well to pork and NUT
ton.

POSTAL MONEY
MEASURE
BECOMES ALAW
New Act Makes Orders Payable
at Any Postoffice-Have Con-
venience Of Bank Drafts.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-The bill
to regulate the payment of postal
money orders has become a law Of
the land. The new statute will not
become effective, however, until rules
and regulations for its operation are
promulgated by the Postmaster Gen.
eral This probably will require sew
eral months.
Immediately following the signing
of the bill Postmaster General Burle-
son appointed committee of postal
officials to prepare rules and regula-
tons to carry the law into effect.
Universal Money Orders.
The bill provides for the issuance
of postal money orders payable at
any money order office, even though
drawn on a specified Office and will,
according to the Postmaster General,
greatly increase the volume of pos
tai money order business and prove
a great help to the business public,
giving as 1t does to the postal money
order the virtues and convenience of
a bank draft.
Figures made public to-day by the
Postmaster General show that in the
last fiscal year nearly 100000 do
nestle money orders were issued,
amounting to almost 1928, 900, 900
100000 Net Income.
The net income to the Postoffice
Department on account of money or
ders issued was over 100000. At
present there are more than $1,000
money order offices in the United
States.
The committee named by the Post
master General is as follows:
A. NJ. Dockery, Third Assistant
Postmaster General; C. A. Kram, Au-
ditor for the sPostoffice Department;
c. E. Matthews, Superintendent of
the Division of Money Orders; C. H.
Fullaway, Assistant Director of the
Division of Postal Savings, and L.
NJ. Bartlett, expert accountant for the
department.

WASHINGTON, Feb. lathe De-
partment of Agriculture issued a
statement to-day on the agricultural
outlook"
The statement shows distinct de-
cline in the number Of beef cattle, a
considerable decline in the number of
sheep and a slight decrease in the
number of swine and largely in
creased prices.
1t is set forth that the potato sup
ply is now about normal and that the
wheat crop of 1913 was considerably
in excess of the wheat crop of 1912.
The statement Is made that the
worlds production of wheat in 1913
amounted tes 4, 126, 600, 900 bushels.
In regard to the potato supply and
prices the statement says:
In consequence Of the firm holding
by farmers the price early in the sea-
son has been unusually high, being on
December l about II IL cents BUSH
ell higher than a year ago and 16 1-2
cents higher than three years ago,
but IL 1-2 cents lower than two years

badly Handicapped On coping with
this evil on account of the lack Of
cooperation on the part of author
tiles.
THE courts will handle a few Of
tenders but 1t is continually i'm
pressed upon the railroads police de-
partment that the arrests of tres
passers must be held to the minimum
ties are unwilling to bear the ex-
pense Of harbortng this class of Of
tenders in jails and other institu-
lions of detention. In sections of
Pennsylvania, West Virginia and
Ohio, however, where sentences to
work on county roads and at other
hard labor have been imposed, tres
passing is not so general as in other
territory where the road operates"
The police officials of the Baltimore
and Ohio are hopeful that the Mary
land Legislature will act favorably
upon the recommendation of Governor
Goldsborough that stringent laws be
enacted against trespassing upon
railroad property. A report was made
to Governor Goldsborough recently by
the legal department of the Baltimore
and Ohio in which the difficulties ex-
perienced in operating the railroad
due to molestation by tramps and
other vicious characters who steai
shipments, wreck trains and commit
other crimes, were pointed OUT. an
this presentation Of the subject was
made the basis of the Governor S
message to the Legislature.
