West rliChigan State Fair
Will Be Better Than Ever

The West Michigan State fair,
which will be held in Grand Rapids,
Mich, September /, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, z,
promises to be better than any fair
ever given in the state. President
Joseph II. Brewer, while a successful
business man, is also a highly sue
cessful farmer and he is deeply inter
ested in agricultural matters and es-
pecially in the welfare and prosperity
of the farmers of this great common
wealth. Ii was for that reason that
he consented to take the presidency
of the fair, and it being his earnest
desire to build it up TO a high state
of educational efficiency, he has sur
rounded himself with men who are
inspired with a similar ambition.
1t is acknowledged to be fact that
the products of West Michigan either
in poultry. livestock, horses, fruits,
grains and other products of the soil,
cannot be eXcellod by any state in the
Union. This knowledge should be
widespread and one way TO advertise
the superiority of these products to
the world is by exhibiting them in a
place where they will be seen by a

MILITARY DEPARTMENT
ATTRACTS ATTENTION OF
THE COLLEGE STUDENTS.

Never before in The history of the
Michigan Agricultural college has
there been so much interest in regard
to military tactics as at present, and
whether this is due to the Mexican
trouble; influence OF the Balkan war
or continued rImors of trouble with
the Japs is conjectural. Nevertheless,
the cadets of the college are taking
more active interest in military al
fairs and pay more attention to drills
than heretofore, it is said.
A number of NJ A. c. officers have
made good in the federal service in
the past five or six years and the
officers up in tactics in generally wei
coined if he cares to abandon civil
life for military life. 1t has been
announced that through the efforts of
Lieutenant Delaney, head of the de-
partment of military science, a three
credit course in international law will
be started next term. This course is
designed especially for those who in
tended to take the examination for
appointment as second lieutenant in
the army, as international law is one
Of the subjects required in the exam
ination.
Another departure planned for the
military course, and which will go
into effect next year, is the plan to
pay all seniors commissioners officers
the sum of % cents an hour during
the time they are working for the
military department. This time will
include both practical drill and class
work. the total amounting to about
$50 a year If the plan is carried
out. commissions will be awarded
strictly from competitive standpoint,
examinations being held in the spring
for fall appointments. The milltary
bearing, popularity of the applicant,
his ability to control men, knowledge
of practical and theoretical work, "
all enter into the result Of his e.;
animation.
The spring term at the NJ. A. G.
may see a fourth battalion formed,
the battalion consisting Of four full
companies. The present organization
has 20 men TO the company, while the
new orders call for roll of but SO.
The formation of new battalion
will mean new officers and conse-
guently new promotions.

NATIONAL POTATO GROWERS
TO MEET IN MICHIGAN
Meeting Held in Lansing in December
NeNt-Big Attendance is As
sured Now.

Lansing.-At the meeting recently
closed of the National Potato Grow
ers' association at Cornell university,
Ithaca, N. Y, it was decided to hold
the next annual meeting of this organ
ization at Lansing and at the same
time the u. S. Department of Agricul-
ture, with the aid Of Michigan people,
will conduct large potato exhibit to
which the entire country will be asked
TO send their best tubers.
". Crandall, county agriculturists
at Port Huron, was The official dele
gate to this meeting, appointed by
Governor Ferris. The campaign to Sc
cure the convention for Michigan ow-
ing TO its important bearing on the de-
Velopment of a great state industry
potato production was inaugurated
and conducted by Milton Carmichael
secretary of the Michigan Agricul-
tural and Development Bureau. The
convention will he held in December
will be about 1000 and will include
nlOSt VI llc OluCidl County dpIICulAul-
lists of the country.
"The Importance of this convention
is that it will help interest the people
of Michigan in raising not only more
but better potatoes" comments Mr..
Carmichael. THE popularity and high
standing of the Michigan Agricultural
College was one of the strong induce
ments to the potato growers to vote
for Lansing and now it is due for the
city to help make this convention a sue
cess. Coming in September, just a
month before the National Corn show,
Michigan can all unite and by the
spread of hospitality to the potato
men perhaps get the corn growers of
the country to pay this state a visit"
The Michigan potato crop in 1913
totalled about 35,000,000 bushels, be-
ing second in money value only to corn
in the farm products. With the added
acreage and attention paid to the crop
in 1914, it is predicted by the agricul-
tural students of the state that more
than 4O,00O,O00 bushels will be har-
vested with fair weather conditions

concerned, but are extremely indiffer-
ent as to keeping up their credit, as
to paying their indebtedness to the
bank promptly and as to making re-
newals. On this account, the bank
ers say much extra expense to the
banks is incurred in the way of cler-
ical help, so forth, making it neces-
sary to charge higher rates against
the farmer.
Although Michigan has few claims
for recognition as tenant state, new
ertheless, in all communities where
tenants are found, a prejudice was
manifested towards them by the
bankers. Most bankers claimed an in
disposition to loan to tenants with the
same freedom that they loan to own
ers, and although this ill will seems
to have made no difference in rates,
nevertheless, tenants do not receive
credit as freely as do the land owners.
"From twenty bankers whom | Wis
tied l learned at once from each and
all of them that they considered the
farmers of Michigan pretty we'll cared
for in the matter of securing credit.
Some of them were not indisposed to
governmental assistance to the far
mers in this recpect, but all of them
said that the farmer was now receiv-
ing at as low rate as possible as
much credit as he could use.

needs help. If the government will
establish banks which loan money to
farmers at a low rate of interest, it

large number Of people who in turn
will tell others about it, and the press
will spread broadcast the fame of
the state. The management of the
West Michigan State fair therefore
earnestly solicits the active co-opera-
ton of the farmers of Western Mich
igan. The men who are now devoting
their time and energies to building up
the West Michigan State fair are not
receiving one dollar for their efforts,
the president, vice president, directors
and members of the committees giving
all their time and energy to help de
velop western Michigan. For that
reason they are entitled to, and
should receive the hearty support of
every resident of that district, both
in the making Of exhibits and IN Civ
ing moral support to the enterprise.
Entertainment features will be fine,
but will not overshadow the education
al part of the fair 1t is altogether
probable that there will be National
Good Roads exhibit and a course of
lectures on agriculture will be given
during the fair. These and other in
teresting features are now being
worked out with view of making
the fair one which will break all rec
ords.

partment of agriculture, has based
his conclusion on information which
he gathered during personal visits
TO many banks. In all, the relations
between $40 banks and their farmer
patrons were reviewed by the college
Investigator. His findings have been
embodied in a formal report, in
which it is declared that a govern
mental system of rural credit would
greatly benefit the Michigan tiller of
the soil, assist agricultural develop
, ment within the state and perhaps
even help lower the high cost of
living"
81 found" said Professor Hedrick,
that the Michigan farmer is handi-
capped by inability to borrow as
mmuch capital as he needs. The bor-
rowed capital of all the farmers in
the state does not equal the money
which has been loaned to two of
Michigan's principal railroads"
According to the II. A. G. mans
report, Michigan agriculturalists are
compelled to pay interest at the rate
of 6l2 per cent on longtime loans,
and 1920 per cent on short time
loans. On these terms, the bank
books show, the farmers have Dor
rOwed $116,739,4 47, or an average of
1864 to each farmer in the state.

"The collateral expenses of record
