cesses from Petrograd. Evidently the supreme efforts in the east are centered on Kovel. for when this stronghold Is in Russian hands the Germans will be forced to retreat along a considerable front, leaving the field clear for an ad- vance in the south toward Lemberg. The Russians are showing a surpris- ing amount of strength after their dis astrOus campaigns last year and they seem to have an unlimited supply of the necessary munitions. The situation for Germany and Austria in the east is serious. for a victorious Russia would be just as dangerous as victorious France or England.
 On the western front the Anglo French offensive continues with each day showing some success Stubborn fighting seems to be the experience all along the line and the British have met with desperate resistance every where. First. and in some cases second, line trenches have been stormed and artillery preparations are under way for another great onslaught. Military critics in Berlin admit that the next few weeks should prove the decisive period of the whole war. The French and British are confident of success and plans have been made to insure an adequate supply of munitions. Mean while the neutral world anxiously awaits developments, hoping that the end of the worlds nightmare of war will soon be in sight
 Premier Asquiths announcement of a temporary solution of the Irish prob lem will be hailed with delight by the British public everywhere. while neu- traIs are also deeply interested. It seems that in the face of a common danger. the erstwhile irreconcilable factions have agreed on a compromise

acted since the passage of the home stead laws. MT. Oliver of the Sixth Ala bama transforms the poetjcal express sion of MT. Moss into the practical as- sertion that the l0.350.O00 mortgage burden of Alabama farmers. as TO- suit of rural credit legislation, may be paid, together with accrued interest. within 10 years following the organiza- tion of the farm loan banks.
 That usury will be unseated is proved in the fact that whereas at present Alabama farmers pay interest at the average rate of 91s per cent, interest rate, in the farm loan act. is limited to per cent plus 1 per cent for admin strative charges.
 THE CONCRETE IDEA

FEDERAL FARM LOAN BANKS
 GREAT BOON FOR THE FARMER
Authorities Explain How Banks Will Operae-One 12 Probably Be in Birmingham and Farmers Associations Will Be

Washington, July 15.-(Special.) The federal farm loan act, III the opin- ion of it's author and of other demo crats who secured it's enactment, will serve the farmer of the United States just as the federal reserve banking system has served the business men of the United States. And just as the lat ter system has made financial panics practically impossible. the rural credits system will. in the opinion of it's spon- sors, disjoint usury and make every in- dustrious farmer in the United States independent

which will give to Ireland home rule with all but three counties of the province of Ulster left out Ulster, therefore. will remain as at present with representation in the House of Commons and will have no connection with the Irish Parliament. Sir Edward Carson will sit in the Irish house with John Redmond. and this arrangement will continue until at least one year after the close of the war. at which time final action will be taken on the home rule question. It is understood that a great imperial council will then be called to settle all such questions in the empire. The bringing about of this generous adjustment in the vexed affairs of Ireland reflects great credit on the statesmanship of Premier Asquith and the patriotism of John Redmond and Sir Edward Carson, not to mention the people of Ireland. May this be the dawn of a new day for the Emerald Isle.
 One mistake the stagey woman makes is in believing she can make a hit by throwing a fit.

cussed this legislation today with the correspondent of The Age-Herald, the concrete idea expressed by the farm loan act is that lolIllufs. wltn a pE --t, will be given an opportunity to bor- row abundant money on long time and at cheap rate of interest.
 And the measure is so admirably drawn" continued the Sixth district representative, that the government, the capital of which will be freely ad- vanced, is guaranteed against loss and the farmer. the sole beneficiary, instead of being endangered by lethargy, will be continually stirred to ambitious ef. forts and absolute independence.
 From the farm loan banks to be established by the government money may be borrowed only by the farmer and for only four purposes--to buy prop erty, to pay for property, to improve property and to develop property. If money borrowed is used for any other purpose, the borrower will subject himself to criminal prosecution
 ESTABLISHING BANKS
 And then MT. Oliver told the entire story-how banks will be established and financed: how the farmers of each community will be welded together into farm loan associations how money by the farmer will be obtained through h his association from the bank and how, in the long run, the money will be re- paid. and the farmers come into pos session of the bank itself.
 As soon as the President signs the bill, which is still on his desk, the territory of the United States will be divided into 12 subdivisions and in each, known as farm loan district, a farm loan bank will be established. A board of control for the entire system will be appointed by the President and will correspond exactly with the board which has control of the federal reserve system. Temporary officers will be chosen to assume charge of each of the farm loan banks.
 In the districts in which such banks will be esta blished, the government will open sale of stock-and any cit izen of the United States may sub- scribe for that stock to any amount, the cost to be $5 per share At the con- clusion of 30 days. if the entire amount -$750, 000-is unsold. the government will advance the money-not exceed ing the whole. or s750, ,000-to cover all stock not demanded by citizens.
 And thus the banks will be estah- lished

 In this connection, it is interesting to note that all the early speculation To- cates one of the F farm loan banks in Birmingham The Magic City is regarded as the center of the great agricultural Lelt-to be one of the districts Atlanta, possessing federal reserve bank. will not be a competitor.
 Farm loan associations. it is antici- pated, will be formed by the farmers of all of the counties of Ala abama and ad- joining states. These associations will deal directly with their bank-that which. it is indicated, will be located in Bir- mingham
 And thus, in all probability, it will hap pen that retail trade in Birmingham will be given another great stimulus.

which never arouses thought or COM
ment among the neighbors needs u
revival of Pentecost religion.
Since earliest childhood most of
us have heard these strange names
in the Pentecost story read from the
pulpit: Parthians, Medes, Elamites,
Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia,
Pontus, Roman Asia, Phrygia, Pam
phylia, Egypt, Tibya, Cyrene, Gre

hearer or reader these are mere

There is no known people on eafth
