M1ssouR1's FARM BANKS

In November, 1916, the people of
the state of Missouri will vote upon
the ratification of the state land-bank
act. The last session of the Missouri
state legislature passed this law, but
as it requires an amendment of the
state constitution the people will be
asked to ratify it to remove all doubts
as to it being creation of the Missouri
land bank, and the purpose is to pro-
vide capital for the farmers at tine
lowest practicable rates of interest.
The bank is to be operated under the
direction of board of high state Off
cials, and the bank is to be made a
part of the office of the state bank
examiner who will be manager of the
bank. The bank will have the power
to make loans on farm property in
not exceeding one-half of the
actual value of the property. The
loans range in amounts from $3.50 to
$4,000 each, though for the sake of
accommodating the largest practicable
number of borrowers preference is to
be given to applications for loans not
exceeding $1,000. The loans may run
from to 25 years. The security to
be given shall consist of promissory
notes and trust deeds in the nature
of mortgages on lands, and loans shall
be made only to applicants who offer
first liens on perfect fee simple titles.
The state is to be divided into dis
trlcts and appraisers are to be appoint
ed in each district, these appraisers to re-
ceive a salary of $4,000 per year and
expenses: The appraisers report on
the value of the farm propc5y offered
as security for loans and tllos to the
lands involved are passed upon by
proper state officials.
The working capital of the Missouri
land-bank is to be provided by appro-
priation of $1,0O0,O00 of the state
funds. When the bank .lau have
loaned 100000 and has on land notes
and trust deeds in that amount, the
bank may sell and issue debenture
bonds in like amount and the bonds
shall state on their face thai they are
secured by trust deeds to Missouri farm
lands appraised at double the va'uc of
the bonds and are further secured by
the funds of the Missouri land bank.
When the second accumulation of notes
and trust deeds amounts t. $500, 900
the second issue of bonds may be sold.
The first 100000 shall be loaned
to farmers at 4.3 per cent and to this
shall be added a charge of one-half
of l per cent for the reserve fund and
also an additional per cent sufficient
to return the loan at the expiration of
the period for which the loan is ma ]e.
On loans running 25 years under this
plan the borrower would pay total os
about 6h per cent per annum to cover
interest, payments into the reserve
fund and the principal, The second
100000 shall be loaned to the farmers
at the rate of interest secured for the
first 100000 issue of bonds, but, in no
event shlll the interest rate be in ex-
cess of 6 per cent.
To provide for the sale of the Mis-
souri, land-bank bond issues the law
provides that savings banks may IN
vest in these bonds and Insurance com
panies which are required to deposit
securities with designated state officers
may purchase and deposit these land.
bank bonds in the same manner as
though they were bonds of the state of
Missouri.

The famous colored "one-man" orches-

the negro hopes to entice men to the

New York, Aug. 19-Chairman WILL
cox Of the Republican National Commit
tee, says: Democratic testimony that
the Underwood tariff bill fails by up
wards OF 500. .000, 900 to raise its share Of
the revenue needed to carry on the gov
eminent is furnished by the Senate FL
nance Committee which has, after stren-
uous labors, reported a supplementary
revenue bill imposing special taxes de-
ably many Democrats would be reluc-
tant to admit that this means taking out
of the pockets of Americans over SEQ 000o,
900 which, under a different tariff could
just as well be taken out of the profits
Of foreigners; although there Is much
evidence to support that contention,
clearly established instances where the
wholesale price Of the foreign manufac-
turer has been advanced exactly the
amount OF the reduction in the tariff,
so that the American consumer gained
nothing from the reduction of the duty.
But no Democrat can deny that these
special taxes are made necessary by the
failure Of the Underwood bill to provide
sufficient revenue. The special taxes are
bound to be onerous in many cases. For
instance, every theater or place of
amusement which seats $50 must pay
a tax of SIS; which seats 900. a tax of $50
and so on up. All bowling alleys and
billiard psrlors must pay q special tax
of So for each alley and each table
Every mortgage and certificate of in
debtedness must pay stamp tax of so
cents for every $500 of amount. A form of
duty Is imposed by special taxes on all
goods entering and coming out Of GUS
tom-housees and bonded warehouses
Steamship and Pullman tickets bear
special taxes, and many other things, all
in addition to doubling the income tax,
and imposing heavy taxes on inherit
ances. The House tax on war munitions
was rejected when It was found It would
hit cotton, and there was substituted an
additional tax on the profits of corpora
tions which, It is expected, will be COL
lected almost entirely in the Northern
States"

ways remain places in which the flies
could breed uninterruptedly and from
which they could spread again over the

practicable to advocate poison bats and
volatile oils for an area Of 400 square
miles, even If there were no doubt as
to the efficiency Of these agents.
Burning the plains as is commonly

burn over the whole extent Of the bar
