FARM LOANS
 SOON AVAILABLE
Commissioner John H. Page, in Letter, Explains Borrowing Under Law. Farmer Can Borrow all the
 Money he Needs on nis Farm.

The new Federal Farm Loal Law is
 subject of letter sent the country oeNspapers this week by John H. St S,, commissioner of mines, n.anu- eoG lures and agriculture. The letter pa o, the attention of farmers to the 'ldl uttages under the new bill and advises the immediate formation of farm loan associations
 ] The letter, in part, follows:
 The Federal Farm Loan Board will in the next sixty days locate the 12 farm joan banks. The banks will be prepared to make loans in 90 days. They will loan money on land to the extent of one-half the value of the wand and one-fifth the value of the buildings at not exceeding six per cent interest per annum on what is cznown as the amortization plan, which fme, $ that the borrower pays stated I me int once year for 10, 20, 30 or 70 .ears. and that these annual pay negts will repay the principal and in 1erest at the end of that time. The ,Dorfower will be allowed to pay off the entire amount or any part of it any time after five years and stop further interest charges. Farmers can bor TOW money for the following purpos- es: To buy land, to erect buildings, to pay debts of any kind to buy imple- ments, machinery or live stock, to make improvements, drainage and similar improvements and to buy fer stilizers for making crops.
 "The farmer can borrow money for practically all of his needs on the farm. If a man wants to buy farm, \ the ,farm loan bank will lend one-half it's Value. If the farmer can pay down small amount and the present own CT will take a second mortgage on the balance, the farmer can pay over to the owner the amount borrowed, and become a farm owner. If he bor rows on 40 years time he can pay of his loan, and interest at the rate of $66.46 year on each $1.O00.
 Under these circumstances, the sec- ond mortgage will be about as good as a first mortgage heretofore, and farm Owners should not hesitate to sell

PERILs OF AN EXPLORER.
Story of a Smoke Dried Indian Head
In the National Museum,


In the United States National mu-
Is a smoke dried head of a Bra
lillian Indian secured on the headwa-
tiers of the Tapajos river in 1877 or
nS7S. 1t was presented to the museum
by DIR. G. FL. Merriam of Washington.
This grewsome object is one of the
few specimens In this country of these
rare human trophies collected and pre-
pared by the Parentintin tribe Of the
Tapajos river In Para, Brazil. 1t Is a
relic of another tribesman who was
killed and his head preserved by the
Parentintins.
DR.. Merriam says that about forty
years G while he was In New York
city Ernest T.. Morris. a young South
American explorer, came to him with
this head and several others, which he
desired to dispose of as soon as posi-
BILE. being badly In need of funds. In
relating his experiences Mr. Morris
stated that while he was travelling
near the headwaters Of the Tapajos
river he was captured by the Indians
and kept prisoner for several years.
In attempting to make their captive
into an Indian like themselves they
tattooed his cheeks and lower jaw with
native pigments, which he found he
could not remove. For a long time he
was In fear for his life, as they threat
ened 10 kill him for his head, sc to
speak, which they would have hung
from the ~lodgepoles as a trophy. But
for some reason he was spared.
After two or three years of imprison-
ment his captors became a little lax In
their watch. and one night Morris
managed to escape In a small boat He
took eight of the trophy heads with
him, knowing that they would be valu-
able objects to museums of this coun
try. By travelling only In the night
and hiding In the day he succeeded In
descending the Tapajos river and
city Of Para. where he secured passage
to New York.
Arriving in that great metropolis, he
found himself stranded financially,
with nothing but his CHASTITY heads as
assets and at the same time much en-
barrassed by the very noticeable tat
tooing with which his Indian captors
had decorated his face. Unfortunately
he could not raise a beard. and he
would not appear In public IS he was.
Finding that DR.. Merriam was in the
city and knowing him to be a scientist,
he decided to approach him In an en-
deayor to raise some money on the
heads. DR.. Merriam says that they
found no difficulty In doing so, the
American Museum of Natural History
taking two and himself one. He does
not remember where the others went.
but recalls that all Of them were sold
at $75 each, netting the explorer about
5000.
With the receipt Of the money Nor
ris' spirits rose again; but, having no
place where he could seek s~eclusion
-fyomAhe-pa public eye.-he immediately
embarked on another trip to South
America and, as far as DR.. Merriam
knows, has never been heard from
since.
