Farmers Warned to he Cautious IN
Dealing Witt! Tnesn.

The Department of Agriculture has
Der of farmers who have subscribed
for stock in ruraE-crel}t companies,
including socalled cooperative COM
panies which appear to have no real
cooperative features.
in some Of these letters the COM
plant is made that the agents selling
the stock make Misrepresentation
as to when loans may be obtained by
subscribers and that the companies
later disclaim responsibility tor the
statements made by the agents. In
a number OF instances farmers seem
to have gained the idea from the
agent that they would be able to Sc
cure loans within q relatively short
time. and express disappointment on
realizing that they must wait for an
indefinite period for the promised
loan and &c on making payments
just the same on the stock which
they have agreed to take.
Where farmers are confronted
with a proposition OF this character
they should first read the prospectus
and the contract very carefully and
! make sure they know exactly what
these mean, especially The contract
II the contract is SO Worded that ite
meaning is not clear after q careful
reading, this III itself should be reas~
on enough for extra caution The
agents explanation Of the contract is
not paIt Of the contract, nor is his
promise that the company will do
things not specified III tne contract
by any means sure to be recognized
by the company.
Farmers ought, first, to find out
what provision has been made for
the protection of the interests Of sub
scribers, either through responsible
Government supervision over the ac-
tivities Of the company. or in any
other way, and if they are in doub;
they should consult competent ad-

| was present. The assembly included
Odd Fellows and their families, Rebek-
abs and few invited guests. A music
al program which lasted about an hour
was given the first part Of the evening,
and consisted of music by an orchestra
composed of DR.. Carl Briggs and Miss
Grace Dean, violins; Mr.. Cote and Frank
Kimball, comets; Harold Merrill, from

lection by quintette Yith DIR. Briggs
and Miss Dean, violins; and Mrs. Burn
ham, Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Briggs at
the piano, proved one of the most en-
joysble features of the program. Tho
musical part of the program ended with
the singing of an anniversary ode, dedi-
Gated to the Mother Lodge of Baltimore,
by chorus of the best singers present.
The second part of the program was
an inspiring and eloquent address by

Jackson is no stranger to Mt. Mica
Lodge, and we have learned to expect
much from him when he speake. On
this occasion be was at his best, and bis
love and devotion to the order was set
forth in such way as to leave a deep
impression on all who were privileged
TO listen to him. Grand Master Bunker
had expected to be present, but the
death of one of the leading Odd Fellows
of the state made it impossible for him
to come and Mr.. Jackson came as sub
stitute.
Following Mr.. Jackson's address Ice
cream and fancy crackers were served
and q social hour enjoyed. The pro-
gram was first class, every number be-
ing heartily encorsd, and the entire
evening was most pleasant.
