RURAL CREDIT LAW
MAKES MONEY CHEAP
Former Hish-lnterest Agencies
Rush to Reduce Rates to
the Farmers.
BIGGER LOANS At LESS COST
Nay Borrow Half Of Land Value
at Less Than Five Per Cent
Effect Airssdy Being Felt
Strongly.

The effect Of the new rural credit
law. passed by the Democratic Admin
istratIon, already is being felt In lower
interest rates. although the land banks
have not yet been organized. Testi-
'n"ny to this effect Ia being given ut
the hearings held by the Federal Farm
Loan Board In various western cities.
AT the hearings In Nebraska. uumer-
ois farmers stated that interest rates
in the homesteading section Of that
State already have been reduced from
rue to two per cent. by the prospec-
i've competition Of the thirty to forty
year loans that the land banks soon
will be making.
The average loan that nn insurance
company or other loan agency would
.uake on 6i0-acre "Kinknid" claim
'.as $1,000. The commission deducted
rom this left the farmer $50. He
paid interest ut from to 10 per cent.
for five years on $1,000, making his
average net interest rate from II to
l3 per cent.
This now is stopped by the coming
competition Of the new rural credits
law. Loan agents are rushing Into
lower rates. to forestall the operation
of the new law.
Lodge Protecting Banks.
This may account for the attack
made on the Democratic rural credit
measure by Senator Lodge. at Bever-
IS. Mass. ON Sept. 23, when he stated
that money could be borrowed on bet
ter terms from regular agencies than
lnder the rural credit act.
Mr.. Lodge declares thnt this act VIII
endanger the present National and
cooperative banks aud tend to break
them down, according to the report Of
his speech In the Boston Globe.
The farmers of the West. who hnve
sutIcred exorbltant interest rates for
years. are not worrying about the
hanks. Their testimony before the
Farm Loan Board showed that they
ire enthusiastic over the new law, and
e;ldy to help put Il In successful op-
Grafton.
Benefits to Farmera
The new farm loan act provides
teans by which fnrmers can form CO.
perntIve or joint stock associations
nd borrow from the regional Federal
arm Loan Bank on the security Of
heir land. Ten farmers can form one
II these associations. They can bor-
row up to 80 per cent. Of the value Of
their land, for a period running up to
forty years.
The loan Is repayable in small an
nuaI lnst,tlments. or can be paid In
ull ut any time. The estimated In
icrest rate Is 8 per cent. The farmer
who borrows will share In the profits
II the business. thereby reducing his
interest rate to a still lower figure.
The Democratic National Commit
lee has Issued from its headquarters,
ut No. 80 East Forty-second street,
New York. pamphlet for free distri-
button fully explaining the rural
credits law. It may be obtained from

COLORADO Strong For
Wilson Says Keadng

By Edward Keatine, Congress-
man from the third Colora-
do district.
1 have visited the greater por-
tion Of my congressional district;
l have talked with hundreds Of
Democrats, Republicans and Pro-
gressives; and l have talked to
thousands more. There is no
misI aking public sentiment in
reference to the presidential race.
The people of Colorado are for
Wilson. He will get the elector-
al vote of this state by at least
$4,000 plurality, and ] would
not be surprised to zee the figures
run up to %, ,OO6or more.
The people are not slow to tell
you why they are for Wilson.
sHe has kept us out Of war!"
That's the answer. and no
amount OF talk >by Republican
orators can muddle the public
mind concerning that issue.
The audiencesI l have addressed
have seemed deeply interested in
the Democratic party's construc-
tive Legislative prograin-the
most remarkable everenacted by
any political party-and they
have appreciated the amazing
prosperity figures which l was
enabled to furnish them; butthey
never really broke loose until l
mentioned the presidents foreign
policy.
Why He Was For Wilson
A prosperous German farmer
chatted with one of the members
OF our party. He boosted of his
crops and the prices he was re-
ceiving. Times were marvellous
ly good with him.
Il suppose you are a Republi-
cah?" my friend queried.
"Snre!" replied the German.
$50 you intend to vote for
Huehes?" said my friend.
"yote for Hughes? l should
say NOT" shouted the German.
Il will vote for Wilson,"
Glow is that" asked my friend
in amazement. "You just said
You were a Republican"
That's right" was the re-
spouse. "But l have three big
boys at home gathering in the
crops. Ifit hadn't been for Will
son, they might be in Mexico!"
The fathers and mothers of tie
land are for Wilson, and they
control few votes.
Some Prosperity Facts
When a Democrat speaks OF
the .unparalleled prosperity
which the nation is enjoying, he
is not indulging in mere figure
OF speech. The cold facts are
simply dumfounding.
The post Office receipts are a
very liable barometer ofbusiness
conditions in any community.
The post Office receipts for the
nation last year showed an in
crease Of "a per cent over the
best year Of the Taft administra-
tion.
The bank deposits for the fis-
cal year ending June 30, 1915,
showed an increase Of 80 per
cent compared with the same
period Of 1912. In other words
after three years Of Wilson the
people OF the couptry have SO
per cent more money 10 the bank
than they had during the best
year Of Republican rule. No
wonder they are satisfied with
Wilson.

RACING REVIVAL IS
PLANNED FOR TEXAS
Oklahoma May Aid in Forming
Circuit to Make Years
Sport in Southwest.

JJTAREZ, Mexico. Jan. 1.-Racing
may be revived in the Lone Star State
and Oklahoma. Race men attending the
meet here are confident that the game
will be started by summer, II not
earlier. Dallas, Fort Worth. San An
tonic. and Houston. in Texas, with
Tulsa and Oklahoma City. in Oklahoma,
are mentioned as a likely circuit. With
the Jockey Club conducting its winter
meet here. there would be an entire
years racing for the owners, with hard
ly a nights journey anywhere.
Several of the leaders of the cattle in
dustry while here expressed them
selves as being sure to enter the
thoroughbred breeding ranks in a mod
est way, II racing is again established
in these States. All are in favor of a
State racing commission such as rules
the sport In Kentucky, with the pari-
mutuel system of betting.
The breeding interests In these States
demand that The horses raised in their
bounds be allowed to race on their
native soil. The big fairs of late years
have suffered from the crushing Of run
ming races in those States, and nowhere
was it's effect so marked as at the State
Fair of Texas at Dallas last year. The
lack OF interest in this great show last
season was attributed by some to the
Panama Pacific Exposition. Others
knowing real conditions. are aware that
the mass of people who stayed away
knew we'll that the good racing of other
years would not be furnished.

THOUSANDL|NKS| IN
UNITED STATES NOW
Famous Scottish Game of Golf
Is Being Well Nurtured by
Our Sportsmen.

NEW YORK. Jan. 21.-According to
the latest available statistics. there are
now more than a thousand listed golf
courses in the United States. All the
golf associations have announced ad-
dtions tc their ranks this year Four
new clubs have been added TO the Met
ropolltan Golf AssoCiation-Norwoo
Belleport, ArCola, and Woodmere. The
New Jersey State Golf Association has
recruited ten new members in the last
year, and has now thirty-seven clubs in
its membership.
The United States Golf Association
gained nineteen clubs during the year.
TwentY-Gour new clubs were elected TO
allied membership and six new clubs
We're elected to active membership. but
eleven allied clubs were lost on account
OF nonpayment of dues or designations.
Of the thousand or more listed links
in this country, about 800 are east of
the Mississippi. The number west OF
the river is increasing each year how
ever and the undue proportion between
the geographical sections is diminish hing
every season.
The metropolitan district is the most
thickly populated golf section in the
United States. having seVenty-six clubs
in the VI. q. A, which are within an
approximate distance of fifty miles
from New York city. New York leads
among the individual States with IL
courses. and Massachusetts is second
with ll9.
More than 400 OF the listed clubs are
in the small corner OF the United
States consisting of New York and the
New England States. In contrast &c
this is the great eXpanse of the whole
southern district. with less than q hun
dred links from coast to coast.

captains, Black. Scnlact, and Mcintyre.
respectively, will be barred from atm
letcs by scholarship study teChnicali-
ties. Charley Sheldon is scheduled to
succeed Black If Slack fails to quality.
Most of the opposition to the election
of Black at the close of the football
season arose from the TACT that his
eligibility would be doubtful another
tall for scholastic reasons.
Blacks friends insist at the present
tlHe that he will easily remove his
scholastic sdisquaitications before the
football season opens next fall. He
has engaged special tutors, and ex-
poets to raise his averages above the
required mark.
