FEDERAL LAND BANKS.

President Signs Rural Credits Bill.
President Wilson ON Monday sign
ed the Rural Credits Bill passed by
Congress.
Under the Federal and Bank sys-
tenn the act provides for Federal
land banks which make loans. for
the first IL months, exclusively
through local national farm loan
associations, composed of borrowers.
These associations shall be share
holders in the banks and in that way
the members, who are the borrowers,
will share in the profits of the bank.
The money for the loans is to come
partly from the capital of the banks
and partly from the sale by the banks
of bonds secured by first mortgages
on farm lands.
The United States will be divided
into 12 farm loan districts and a
Federal Land Bank with subscribed
capital stock of not less than $780,
900, each share SIS, in each district.
Each Federal Land Bank may estab-
lish branches in it's district.
No Federal land bank is permitted
to charge more than per cent. per
annum on it's farm mortgage loans,
and in no case shall the interest
charged on farm mortgages exceed
by more than 1 per cent. the rate
paid on the last issue of bonds.
The primary purpose of this act
is to promote agricultural prosperity
by enabling farmers to borrow
money on farm mortgage security at
reasonable rate of interest, and for
relatively longer periods of time.
1) A system operating through
regional land banks; and (2) sys-
tenn operating through joint-stock
land banks.
The good to be anticipated from
the enactment of the Rural Credits
law can best be emphasized, Admin
istration officials said, by the
statement that in the years since
the similar rural credits law of Ger
many has been in operation there
has been a comparative reduction in
the number of tenant farmers from
SO to 10.

COOPERATIVE DIVIDENDS.
Problems in the Equitable Distribu-
tion of Profits of Incorporated
Cooperative Grain Conn

Cooperative Grain Conn
panies.
In great majority of cooperative
associations, according to specialists
in the department the provision in
the bylaws for the payment of divi-
dends to the patrons in proportion,
to the amount of business that each
contributes has not yet been put into
effect. Where these associations
have been organized under the State
law affecting corporations, there are
now difficulties to be encountered in
arranging such dividends, and even
where these obstacles do not exist or
can be overcome, it is not always
easy to find method which will
satisfactorily effect a complete dis
tribution of the profits of coopera-
tive companies. For this reason the
department has just published De-
partment Bulletin No. 371, dealing
with this question as it affects CO.
operative grain companies.
In this publication it is first point
ed out that these associations which
were organized under the corporation
law and have since acquired a sur
plus should, in general distribute
their surplus to the stockholders and
then reorganize under the jurisdic-
tion of cooperative law. In this
! connection it is pointed out that
care should be taken to ascertain the
legal provisions of the State in which
the association is to be incorporated
and to comply in every particular
with them. Another point brought
out in the bulletin is the justice of
basing patronage dividends upon the
quantity of grain delivered to the
elevator rather than upon the price
paid for it. In handling grain the
management of an elevator usually
determines upon a certain net
margin between the purchasing and
selling price. This margin it is as
sumed will yield sufficient revenue
to carry on the business. Whatever
profit accrues to the elevator comes
from this margin. AS it is almost
without exception the same on all
varieties of grain, it follows that
the patron who brings low-priced
grain to the elevator is Of as much
benefit to it as the patron who brings
high-priced grain, and he should,
therefore, receive the same patron
age dividend.
The bulletin also outlines system
by which patronage dividends may
be equitably distributed among a
number of elevators which have sent
their grain to one central organiza-
tion for disposal.

Federal Aid For Good Road

Federal Aid For Good Roads.
President Wilson has signed the
so-called Good Roads bill, by which
the federal government co-operates
with the states in the construction of
roads. The bill provided $S5, ,OOO, 900,
to be expended in five years. Mary
lands share of the amount will ag-
gregate in the five years, $662,25O.
OF the $85,0OO,O00 appropriated by
Congress $1O,00O,0O0 is reserved for
the roads and trails in the national
forests. The act limits the federal
governments share in road work in
cooperation with, the states to SO per
cent. of the estimated cost of con-
struction. Federal aid may be ex-
tended to the construction of any
rural post road, excluding all streets
or, roads in towns having popula-
tion of $500 or more, except the por-
tions of such streets or roads on
which the houses are, on an average,
more than 200 feet apart.
Five million dollars is made avail
able for expenditure during the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1917, and
thereafter the sum is increased at the
rate of $4,000, 900 a year until 1921,
when the sum provided is $685.

atition of $1,0OO,O0O year for 10
years, total of 10000, 900 is made

The act provides that after max
ing necessary deductions for admin
istering it's provisions not to exceed
