10 AIDFARN|ERS
MOVING CROPS
New Currency System to be in
Operation by Fall, Says
Secretary McAdOO.

Before the farmers and ranch own
ers in the West and other agricultural
sections move their crops to market
next fall, the administration new
currency measure will be in full ef-
feet. Announcement to this effect is
made by Secretary Of the Treasury
McAdoo and Secretary of Agriculture
Houston, who have been engaged in
the organization work incident to the
creation of the new financial system
Of the country since Congress passed
the measure two months ago.
According to Secretary McAdoo
the new law will provide currency
sufficiently elastic to enable farmers
to obtain all the money they need to
move crops. Heretofore, especially
during the first year Of new admin
istration, a money stringcucy was nj
ways evident at the crop-moving per
iods
Although the advantage Of this IL
novation in currency laws will je
felt, principally in tho West every
agricultural section that handles
large quantities Of crops VIII benefit
by it to some extent Berkeley coun-
ty farmers may secure loans from
National banks on property already
mortgaged, to supply working capital
for moving their crops. Under for
mer currency laws, this could not
be done.
