4 few years ago there came to the
TTt-State Fair as an entry in the live

at least one Mississippi farm. He had
3 noble bearing, his marks were good,
he was OF right weight and magnif-
cent vitality.
There were other bulls at this fair
Q hundred or more of them. They
came from all over the continent
There were several of them who were

others had ranged the wide sweeps Of

all wore ribbons of some recent tri'

The practically unknown Mississippi
entry came into the ring the next day
as a mystery. He did not remain SO
very long, however He was walked
around few times. The owners Of
other champions gazed at him critical

Bankers Plan Loans to Farmers.

Following up suggestion made by
officials of the Nashville, Chattanooga
& st. Louis Railway at a conference
with several barkefs in Chattanooga
recently, the Clearing House banks Of
that city have pledged themselves to
supply a fund of $780, to be loaned
on long time to deserving and ener-
getic farmers in that territory, this fund
to be used in developing the agricul-
tural resources of that section.
Mr.. Thomas R. Preston. as represen.
tative of the Chattanooga Clearing
House banks, has explained in gen.
eral way the purposes of the fund and
the motives which actuated the bank.
ers In supplying it. Briefly, the object
in view was to permit young and cap
able farmers to get start in life on
the farms and by encouraging them in
scientific methods and the introduction
of better live stock, to render a valua-
BILE aid to the farmers themselves and
help to build up the land which is cap
able of producing splendid results. The
details of the plan, and the methods to
be followed in passing upon the appli.
cants for loans are to be worked out BY

membership Of the Farmers Cooper.

The endorsement Of the idea by the

which this road has taken in the devel-
opment of the agricultural resources
along its lines, and that the movement
will be far-reaching in its effect upor
the development of the farming inter.
ests has been demonstrated by the great
interest created through the farming
communities 10 this territory. In Z
general way the idea is to loan variou:
sums to farmers who have character
and the ability to make good. This
money will be loaned for the purchase
of better live stock. improved farming
machinery, etc.. and at rate of inter
est which the banks are now loaning
money to other business enterprises.

in their cotton transactions is 10000,
600, one-twentieth of the probable value
of the entire cotton crop, but the banks
are themselves able to carry large
amounts on the same plan, and the fact
of the government backing gives secu-

enables those who want to hold and
have not funds of their own to do so
the opportunity to get the funds and
thus secure better prices. Truly the
