vIdes a way whereby every mar

There are to be five banks

Board from the National Govern

best way OF dividing up the dis
tricts and everything possible is
being done to show New Orleans
as the logical point for this. Sec
ton. All of Louisiana is consoli-
dated on this, and it is believed
that S760,000 capital required by
law will all be subscribed by the
patriotic citizens Of the state.
With this capital loan of $15,.
O00,000 can be secured for our
farmers and more if required.
There is to be no dealing with
the individual, but an association
consisting of at least ten men
must be organized with five di.
rectors, a President, Vice Presi.
dent and Secretary Treasurer.
And this association must value

FARMERS MEETING
Great SUCCESS
Unexpected Interest Manifested in

AT 3 o'clock sharp Monday at
ternoon, perhaps the best repre-
sentative crowd Of Washington

here, was called to order in the
courtroom by Judge P. B. Car

We were to take in this was to Sc

convinced that every man present

which has been wonderfully sue.
cessful in the old country for
many years, and the only reason
it has not been tried here is be.
cause the Democrats have not
been in power before. Mr.. John.
son 5 idea was that this section {
thru the systematic organization t
recommended, would be greatly +
benefited not only by obtaining c
these loans at a low rate and on !
long terms, but also by the great b
confidence that would be estab. /

He says that the south, while n
producing more than one-half of Il
all the agricultural products of 8
The nation, yet is doing only IS b
per cent of what she could do,
