Washington, d. C.-The senate has
agreed TO a new method of adjusting
railway mail pay I'm adopting an
amendment to the post Office appro-
priation bill which provides that the
interstate commerce commission
shall investigate and determine the
method and amount of railway mail
pay. At the present time payment is
made on a weight basis and is de-
termined by the postmaster general.
Senator Sterling secured the adoption
of an amendment which is by many
considered Of great importance in the
determination of what Is a fair rate
of compensation to the railroads for
hauling the mails. It provides that In
fixing and determining what are fair
and reasonable rates for such ser
vice the commission shall consider
the relation existing between the
railroads as public service corpora

nature of such service, as distinguish

taton has Jagged in the trail blazing business

Kansas of late years has just been catching up with
the advanced ideas of the prophets of that day.
In those days of political upheayal the farmers
demanding financial plan that would reckon with
them. They felt that the banking system built
up for the benefit of the railroad the manufacturer
and the merchant. They objected to the high rates
on mortgages and held to the belief that the farm

of interest the the corporations.
But it not for many years after and not
til Kansas had settled down to quiet but determined
demeanor that this came about
A year ago a mutual organization of Kansas farm
formed which has resulted in giving to the
farmers the financial benefits enjoyed
by the corporations
This mutual organization is The Kansas Rural
Credit Association with headquarters at Emporia-
successful statewide rural credit system in
this country.
What is Rural Credit"
The words themselves answer. Every one knows
the meaning of credit-'time given for payment of
land goods sold" Rural credit, therefore,
credit extended to persons living in the country
rural" meaning pertaining to the country"
Strictly speaking, any loan farm land might be
called rural credit But with the advent of the
Kansas Rural Credit Association rural credit is
confined to the method of making farm loans.
Rural credit initiated in Kansas by a
Der Of leading Kansas farmers and business
While the system is in the United States, it
has formed the basis of agricultural credit in Euro
pean countries for a century Germany. of
whose marvellous efficiency" much has been writ
ten since the outbreak of the war; originated it and
seems to have developed it larger scale than
any other country although it forms almost equal
V important part of the economical systems of France
AustriaHungary Russia and Italy.
The principle of rural credit was worked out by
that remarkable soldier statesman, Frederick the
Great, who started it in 1869. In Germany it is
called the 'Landschaften, land bank its sole pur-
pose being to lend money to farmers, who constitute
it, 1t is application of the principle of co-opera-
ton which, in late years, has been active in the
industrial and commercial development of our own

means the annual payment of interest and a small
sum in addition, to apply the principal. Practi
caly it is the same as sinking funds used by rail
roads, cities, counties and states.
county issues 100000 worth of SOyear bonds
to pay for new school buildings, roads or bridges
The County Commissioners levy special tax to ere
ate a sinking fund At the end of 80 years this tax
has yielded a sufficient sinking fund to retire the
bonds The only difference is that with each yearly
payment of interest, and the small sum of amortza
ton the interest charges steadily diminish.
For example, suppose thousand farmers wish to
borrow money their farms: They join together
in an association and issue bonds against the Sc
curity of the thousand mortgages, each farm being
liable however, only for the amount of its owners
loan The bonds sold to investors and in this
way money is secured at much lower rate of in
terest than if the farmers went to individuals and
separately negotiated their loans.
After securing his loan the farmer begins to pay
it back in small yearly payments (amortization),
which includes interest charges
If a farmer wishes to borrow $1,000 for 30 years.
the annual payment of $6750 pays the interest on
the loan and wipes out the loan at the end OF 50
years
Under the Kansas Rural Credit Associations plan
payments in addition to the regular sum required
for interest and amortization may be made
in any year in the sum of 500 or less. These. OF
course reduce the time necessary to pay off the loan
Or the entire principal remaining unpaid may be
liquidcted by the borrower at any yearly payment
time
