elected director1general at a salary Of
$4,000 per annum for a term Of three
years. This salary he declined and de-
maHded $4,000 In lieu thereof. This
compromise was accepted. Mr.. Come,
q Gulfport newspaper man, was named
secretary at a salary Of $500 per an
mum, presumably for a like tenure Of
office. Summing up these two salaries,
it will be seen that combined they
amount to $4,000 for three years, or a
little more than 90. per cent Of the en-

ATTENTION, COTTON PLANTERS
AND MERCHANTS.

There is a time in the individual S
life that opportunity knocks at his
door and if he grasps it, his fortune is
made. The same is true Of Nations.
The South has Il great opportunity to
sell her cotton crop for more money
than at any period since the Civil war
if she will grasp it promptly.
The European war is likely to end
soon, probably by Thanksgiving Day,
and then you can look for cotton to
soar in price; it may jump five cents a
pound over night. 1t went down Ave
cents when the war broke out and you
can look for Il big advance when it ends.
There are u number Of conditions that
have changed, that point to higher
prices and if you will keep Informed
you viii be able to reap ONE of the
benefits.
knowledge is Power and unless you
keep informed you may wake up when
it is too late and set up another COM
plant about Wall Street and the spec
ulators robbing the South; they are
alive all right, and they are now selling
out stocks which will decline when the
war ends, and are buying large guam
titles Of cotton futures, anticipating the
rise. IA T
Preparedness is a virtue, and you
must prepare to reap the benefit that is
coming, rather than let the other fellow
get it. The cotton traders are aware of
the conditions, but they are not going
to tell you for obvious reasons. They
employ the best tahnt TO keep them
posted. They don't depend on their 10.
cal papers and heasay. However, our
local papers are our best asset, tlei
have fought our battles for better
markets for years, but they have other
things to do than to study cotton all
the time,
We are establishing a Bureau Of In
formation, The Southern Cotton Review
for Cotton Planters and will issue trade
letters monthly, direct to them, so they
can have all the valuable information
pertaining to cotton and the cotton
trade,
1t is our aim to object this informa.

scribers in such a manner they can't

important event is dbout to take place

THE RURAL CREDITS BILL.

Washington, July T7.-Here is what
a farmer who needs money can do I'M
der the rural credits bill, which was
singed today by the President:
First, he must join what is to be
known as a National Farm Loan As.
ISOLATION, paying in s5 for n of its
shares for each 800 he wishes to Dor
row. He has one vote a share, but not
to exceed ten votes in all.
Next, he applies TO the association
for the loan, giving his personal nota
therefor, secured by a first mortgage on
his farm. If the association apprO yes
the loan, it turns the note mortgage to
a land bank. The land bank sends the
amount Of the loan to the association,
which hands the money to tho farmer.
No commission, brokerage or rake'of is
charged the borrower.
No single loan is to be for less than
800 or more than 10000; nor for less
than FIVE years or more than forty years.
The loan must not exceed 60 per cent
and preferably should not 60 beyond 80
per cent of the market value of the
land covered by the mortgage.
The borrower pays, semi.annually.
the interest on his note, plus an install
meut of the principal. He must not be
charged over 6 per cent interest.
Each National Farm Loan Associa-
ton must have at least ten members,
and it cannot begin business with less
than $4,000 in loans applied for.
1t is illegal, under severe penalties
for any officer, committeeman or mem,
Der to accept any commission, fee or
%perquisite of any kind for granting any
loan, The only paid officer is a S ere
sary treasurer.
Money can be borrowed by the sys
TEN in order to pay for agricultural
land, equipment, fertilizer, live stock,
buildings and improvement, or to dis,
'harge Il prior mortgage.
The land bank may charge the Dor,
owing farmer only | per cent more than
he rate it gets on its bonds. This mar
gin Of one point is to cover expense and
profits.
