in estimating the supply which will
be needed, allowance be made for
possible replanting requirements. It
is also suggested that farmers hav-
ing exceptionally good seed may find
it advantageous to save more than
enough to fill their own needs, since
there should be ready sale for the
surplus in the spring N other plant

Farmers having a sufficient supply Of
unsinned seed of desirable quality
should see that special precautions
are taken to avoid contamination BIZ
mixture with worthless seed during
ginning. 1t may be well to save such
seed cotton until near .he close of the
ginning season, when arrangements
for especially careful ginning may be
made.
The primary factor in the cotton
seed shortage, it is shown by reports
to the department of agriculture, is
the shortage Of the cotton crop in
most of the Southern states, due to
drouth. floods, and boil weevil in.
festation. The shortage is marked in
all the cotton-producing states except
Georgia, Louisiana, Tennessee, Ar
kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas, and Is
appreciable in some Of those states.
The seed produced is rapidly passing
TO the mills for crushing, since the
price offered per ton is approximate
ly twice as high as during normal
vars.

DEMOCRATS TO CELEBRATE.

Jefferson county will celebrate next
Thursday night the victory achieved
by the people last Tuesday over the
forces of public plumber and special
privilege. The monster demonstra-
tioin is to take place in Pine Bluff.
and Jeffersonians of Jefferson hope
that the DEMOCRATS Of adjacent coun-
ties will join them in the jollifica-
ton. Right here, The Graphic de-
sires to suggest that autos and other
vehicles be kept off the route of the
torchlight procession, and from mo-
nopolizing place of vantage at inter-
sedting street corners and in front CT
the speakers stand. And, gentlemen
of authority, it will not be demo-
cratic affair unless yoa do keep the
streets clear and give rich and poor
equal opportunity to witness the
parade, and hear the speakers.

LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT

many. The people of Canada dc
not know what it means to save
money"
The duty of the Garner at present
is to save a larger proportion of his
wages t.lan he has been saving in the
past. saving money, of course, is
only one feature of thrift. Thrift of
health, thrift OF time, and thrift of
energy. are just as important as
thrift Of money. One advantage of
thrift lies in the fact that there is
nothing too insignificant to be saved.
In Brooklyn, New York, we find a
striking example of the value of
thrift in little things. Tinfoil is COL
pitfalls. This is sold from time to
time, so the little inmate in the or
phan asyl,Hls are gwen an occasional
delightful days citing from the pro-
ceeds, while the portion which goes
to the hospitals is used to buy beds
for their poor sick inhabitants. This
is wonderful instance of the value
Of thrift 1t serves a manifold pur-
pose. Tinfoil, such as that which
usually comes in cigarettes, candy, to-
bacco, tooth paste tubes, ETC., is ordi-
narily thrown away. The person who
saves it for these charitable purposes
thus becomes a practicer of thrift,
and the orphans and hospital charges
receive a wonderful help. Also
the sum total Of the country's waste
is, to small degree. eliminated.

Farmers thruout the country are
.manifesting great interest in the new
federal farm loan banks. From a
recent bulletin issued by the federal
farm loan board we take the follow
ing information:
The beginning of this system is in
the organization of local farm loan
associations. These local associations
are formed after the following man
ner:
One or more farmers must make
application in writing to the federal
land bank for a charter. The federal
farm loan board in Washington will
furnish blanks for that purpose. Ten
or more farmers must sign articles
of association. swear to them and
forward them to the federal land
bank.
The federal land bank will then
send its appraiser to inspect the Sc
curity. and if satisfactory the loans
will be authorized when the charter
is granted to the association. The

land bank then advances the money
thru the secretary of the local assoc1-
alton, who is a bonded officer In
the application signed by the borrow
ers each must indicate how much
money he desires, and must list the
value of the land to be used as Sc
curity.
This local national farm loan asso-
citation ha sa loan committee of three
members, who must agree upon the
valuations. After they make their
written report federal appraiser in
spects and confirms the estimate.
No one farmer can borrow more
than $4,000 nor less than 500. NO
national farm loan association may
start with less than 100000 in loans:
Loans are made to so per. cent. or
the value of the land, 20 per- cent. OF
the value of the permanent insured
improvements. Here are some ques-
tons and answers sent out by the
federal bureau that may interest our

exception of brief intervals, it is
hard to impress on the people the
value and necessity of thrifty prac-
tices, but when a great national
calamity arises thrift is at once resort
led to. In the present European situa-
tion how often do we find that the
position and strength of this nation
or that are strengthened by the thrift
of the people. Realizing the neces-
sity of thrift, great campaign to en-

A. No.
q. Will the borrower pay for alb
stracts of title?
A. Yes.
O.. Could the local association en-
ploy man to provide abstracts, and
thus, perhaps, save expense?
A. Yes; this is one of the advan-
tages of cooperation.
@. What is meant by amortization?
A. Amortization is the term APP
piled to the process Of reducing an
indebtedness by small payments thru
a period of years.
G. How long may these loans run?
A. From five to forty years, at the
option of the borrower.
A. At what rate Of interest?
A. The rate of interest on loans
will be determined by the rate of in
terest at which the bonds will sell.
To illustrate, if the bonds sell at a
per cent the rate on money loaned TO
farmers cannot be over s per cent,
because the law provides there shall
he q margin Of not more than one
per cent. between the price of the
bonds and the rate Of interest on
money loaned. This margin is to
nav the expenses of the bank. II
these expenses are less than one per
cent. the rate of interest will be re-
duced. In no event will the interest
to the farmers be more than per
cent.
O. How are interest and payments
on principal to be made?
A. Interest and principal are
bumped into equal annual or semi
annual :nstallments turnout the en-
tire period of the loan.
@. May borrower pay OFF MS
loan before maturity?
A. He may pay it all or in part on
any interest-paying date after hVe
years.
@. You say farmer who borro"s
is required to buy stock of his local
association equal to 5 per cent. OF ms
loan What becomes of this stock?
a. It is, held by the local loan as
sociation as collateral security until
the farmer pays off his debt, then the
money. is returned to him and the
farmer NAV use it as the last pay-
ment of his debt.

of the other members Of the assocla-

A. Yes.
O. What is the likelihood that TINS

A. Very remote. If loans are con-
