= From the Century Magazine.
The Morris plan Of banking provides
for this In the institutions founded by
the Industrial finance corporation, which
will make possible the turning OF charac-
ter n earning owe into collateral.
This plan to extend borrowing facilities
to the person of small means was first
worked out In America by Arthur ].
Morris. q Virginia lawyer, and has been
adopted by the Industrial finance cor
poration, which Is putting II into opera
ton all over the country. It Is designed
for the man showing q legitimate, borrow
ing need, and with q reputation for hon.
esty among his associates n employers.
The banks lend In proportion to a mans
earning capacity, having al security only
q note, bearing Interest at 8 per cent, with
two OF his friends signatures. The Dor
rover purchases a certificate OF invest
ment equal to the amount Of the loan,
making weekly payments at q . per cent
rate. At the end of 10 weeks this collat-
Ieral certificate becomes full paid and tho
owner car cash II, paying the money over
to the bank, or II he Is able to discharge
his debt from outside sources he can re-
tain his certificate with Interest of from
l to ~ per cent more than savings banks
allow, using II as collateral for a future
loan which will require no Endorsement
Or, again, he nay borrow from the bank
the sum needed to pay off the first loan,
putting up the fuI-paid certificate as col
lateral. When the second LOAF Is repaid
he owns the first certificate OF investment
outright. The investment certificates are
Issued in units of so, and their purchase
Is not confined to borrowers alone.

HyoienIc SaIta for the Bath.

A physician who believes in baths
as a tonic advises the 1874 Of EPSON
or Carlsbad salts-preferably the for
mer-for a general inauguration. They
should be used not more than twice a
week.
Take one ounce of the salts to a
pint Of warm water for a sponge bath.
For a large tub bath use q pint OF
salts to a tub of warm water.
Purchase the salts at a Wholesale
drug house. The usual price in guam
titles is four cents a pound. This
salt water makes an excellent tonic
and carries OF many impurities
through the pores of the skin.

are said to be ninety years old, al
though most OF. the Glove plantations
on Zanzibar Island date from 1872
when a terrific cyclone swept over It
doing fearful damage to the trees
An interesting story Is told OF al
American ship captain whose vessel
lay in the harbor at the time Of the
tornado, and which weathered the
storm. Realizing that the Glove trees
were practically wiped out, he crowd
ed all sail for Alden, then the terminus
OF the ocean cable line. He brought
his ship to anchor about mile from
the town, himself took a boat, and
rowed to shore. Gaining the telegraph
Office he sent a-cipher dispatch to his
principal In America, telling him the
news, and suggesting the 'cornering
Of the cloves In the world. This was
done. and my chronicler informed me
that the old sea dog never had to
make another voyage.
The Glove trees begin to bud about
January Or February. and the picking
is done any time after July, continuing
for about four months, as the trees
ripen irregularly. When the cloves
have been picked they are exposed on
mats to the sun for six or seven days
and are then sent to the customhouse
where the government exacts an ex'
port duty of % per cent. in kind.
The crop is very uncertain one
q heavy yield one year, and compare
lively nothing the next. The bulk OF
the cloves are bought by American
and German and Indian firms, and are
sent to Bombay, Hamburg, London
and New York. Most OF the cloves
are used in distilling oil of cloves.
which in turn is employed in the man.
ufacture of drugs, perfumes. confec-
tioneries, etc.
Another great product Of Zanzibar
is copra, which Is the dried interior OF
the cocoanut. The cocoanut trees
grow throughout the Sultanate with
out cultivation; land is sold by the
number of cocoanut trees on it. A
tree will yield from 100 to 100 nuts a
year; the crop is gathered about every
four months. The nuts are split and
dried in the sun for several days,
when the product is ready for ship
ment. France consumes most OF the
'copra. which is used in the manufac
ture OF soap. oil cakes, etc.

We may wonder why 1t is that Kan.

land that still remains practically i'm

son is because these shallow water
valleys traverse great agricultural
plains. fully believe that II these

Kansas would have developed long be.
fore this. Moreover, these shallow
water lands seem too insignificant tc
the average Kansas man when he sees
all about him vast areas of land prac,
tically all of which can be cultivated
and farmed by dry farming methods.
Another important factor is the eco
nomic condition. Naturally, develop
ment by irrigation, like all other lines
of agricultural development, follows
the line of least resistance. In times
past 1t has been easy to divert the
flow of streams into the valleys OF
Colorado, California, and other West.
seTn states where the topography Is
generally rough and mountainous, but
these cheaply watered areas are no
longer available and each year more
and more money is being required to
secure dependable water rights.
= The fact that water is becoming
lore valuable every year Is the very
reason that Kansas will find It profit
able to develop more extensively these
shallow water areas. At present,
Kansas can furnish by pumping at
cost that will compare favorablyy
with the newer irrigation projects Of
the West.
In 1909 there was approximately
$S05,O0O,000 invested in head works
and main canals for the 1894
acres OF irrigated land, or an average
cost Of $22 per acre. DR.. Fortier, head
of the Department of Irrigation Inves-
LEGATIONS, states that about 500 per
acre should be added to this cost for
lateral bitches, leveling, etc.. or max
