The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1914-10-06


The current Crop Bulletin of the
department of agriculture devotes
considerable space to exposing a
loan" scheme, in which certain COM
panies are actively at work promls-
ing farmers cheaper money than
anybody else is able to get on equally
good security. In some sections of
the country, it is said, many are be-
ing made victims Of the INSCRIPTIONS
scheme.
Stripped of verbiage and words
which darken rather than enlighten
the scheme is essentially as follows:
Such a company offers to lend money
on good security, at say 3 per cent
interest. and to allow the borrower
to repay the loan in easy monthly
installments on the amortization
plan.
This sounds alluring, and II the
farmer is not persistent in asking
what he is 10 get and when he is TO
get il he signs an application for a
loan on these favorable terms. In a
few days ne receives from such a
company a contract for the loan toI
which he applied. The contract which
| he receives is duly signed by the OIL
! GERS of the company.
| Then he realizes that the applIca'
ton signed by him and the CONTRACT

The effects of war are felt in the
least expected places. For instance,
the Youths Companion says all base
balls that cost more than twenty-five
cents are covered with Russian horse
hide. The climate and the exposure
to which the horse of the Russian
steppes is subjected give his hide a
peculiar toughness that makes it able
to withstand the terrific strain to
which a base ball is subjected. I'm
less Russia can keep her ports open
for the exportatioE of leather our
national game will suffer inconven
fence.

Official information has reached
Washington that Zapata and Villa
are working in harmony against Car
rama and expect to receive the sup
port of the ex-federals. If this in
formation is correct it would seem
that Carranza's days as the dominant
figure in Mexico are numbered. I'm
less help comes to him from some
unexpected source he may soon know
how it feels to be a political exile,
thinks the Savannah News. Doubt
less these be blithe days for Seniors
Porfirio Diaz and VictorianO Huerta.

Exchange Talk.
Preach Gospel; Not Slit Skirts.

Madison Madisonian: The Wes-
leyan observation-disclosures says that
preachers should preach more of the
fundamental truths of the Bible. The
people want to hear these truths pro-
claimed. 1T does not require much
effort in preparation to denounce the
slit skirt" says the Wesleyan. That
by the way, has about, like a good
many other follies, worn itself out,
but to prepare real sermon on such
a theme as the atonement, to present
it with clearness and force, is anoth-
er matter"

Democratic Outlook Bright.

The New York Herald has made a
canvass of the congress
sional campaign now in progress, and
the result indicates that the chances
are largely in favor of the democrats
retaining possession of the house OF
representatives in the November cleo
ton. While admitting that things
may happen between now and the
time OF the election that would mate
rally alter the outlook the Herald
concludes that the republicans have
only a fighting chance to come bach
'ii1o control, although they doubtless
VIII regain many of the seats lost b!
eAem when they were swept out o
power in 1912.

The Andalusia Star very truthful

back of you for three hundred and
sixty-five days in the year.

Senator Sheppard of Texas has
proposed a reduction of salaries of

much if the congress will accept the
Texans uggestion-and so does the
