USE LAND BANK TO DEFRAUD
Warning Issued That Unauthorized
Solicitors are Attempting to
Collect Money.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 23.-Secre-
tary Flanagan of the federal farm
loan board, has issued a warning to
farmers that solicitors are busy in
several states, without authority OF
the board, attempting to collect mon
ey for the organization of National
Farm Loan Association.
Such associations are authorized un'
der the laws and are to be formed by
farmers who desire loans.
The representation by any person
that . any organization is offering to
make loans BY authority of the farm
board under the federal farm loan act
is false" said Mr.. Flanagan.
Mr.. Flanagan sair information had
been received from Montana, Idaho
and other western states to the ettect
that unauthorized persons were solicit
ing subscriptions there. He said farm
ers SHOULD plan the organization OF
loan associations.

SWIFT AND co. HIT HARD
Cannot Charge for Meat Containers
Will Save Consumers Millions
of Dollars Annually.

Yonkers, N. Y, Aug. ga fine of
$500, imposed on Swift & Company,
meat packers, by city court Judge, Jo-
seph H. Beall, carried with it de-
cision which will cost the country's
meat packers $1,OOO,OOO a year if ap-
proved by the higher courts, according
to their attorneys. 1t will save this
sum to the consumers.
Judge Beall found the packers guilty
of having violated the law by charging
for meat containers the same as for
the meat they contained. 1t was charg.
ed that the company had sold ham
weighing II pounds, six ounces, in a
container weighing six ounces, and
charged for II pounds and IL ounces
of meat.
The company's defense was that the
hams are not classed as ordinary
meats, and that the buyer knows he is
paying meat prices for the paper con,
tainers.

NEARLY EVERYONE CAN WRITE
Iowa Leads All States In Lack of H.
literate people Shown by the
Census Report.

Des Moines, Aug. 23.-Iowa leads al
the states in the matter of highest per
centage of persons who can write, &C
cording to the 1915 census.
Iowa's percentage of illiteracy /!
just one.
This leaves SO per cent who are ter
years of age or over who can write.
For 1905 the percentage of litter
acy was computed at Is. The United
States census reports for 1910 litter
acy of IL per cent in Iowa. But that
was two-tenths of one per cent lower
than for any other state of the union.
The Iowa census computation for
this year is on the same basis as that
used by the federal census, namely
consideration only of persons ten years
of age or over. Ten years ago the
Iowa census took into account also
those between five and ten years of
age. Obviously this placed Iowa at a
DISADVANTAGE, as many five year old
had not vet entered school,
"The showing for 1915 in regard to
education is the most gratifying of
any ever made" declared Ora Will
liams, editor of the census. There can
be no doubt of the accuracy of the
count and it is doubtless far more
complete than any federal enumera-
ton ever made. No state of the union
will for many years, be able to equal
the Iowa record for universal educa-
ton"
The number of illiterate persons ten
years old or oyer reported for 1915 is
1879, In 1905 the number reported
was 2S,979. OF these illiterates there
are 10.304' males of voting age. The
of persons reported as litter
ate, and of age 10 to 81, is LIS, as
against 1851 for 1905 of school age.
A very valuable feature to the ex-
tent of education of all the people, or
in other words, how much schooling
the people have had. These facts were
found:
Number of Iowans who have attend
ed the common schools: Male, S59, 292;
female, 757,761; total 1,617,053.
Number who have attended high
schools: Male, 1852; female, 170,-
577; total 289,1O9.
Number who have attended colleges:
Male, 74,145; female, 1884; total,
100000.
