PROPOSED FARM BANK
DISCUSSED WEDNESDAY
Representative Leppert of New Or
leans Speaks to Farmers Here
EXPLAINS THE WORKINGS OF
THE NEW FARM LAW
Crowd Small, But Much Attention
Is Given to the Man Who Speaks
for The Crescent City

A meeting was held at the court
house Wednesday morning in be-
half of securing a Federal Farm
Loan Bank for the city of New Or
,eans.
Representative w ]. Leppert,
representing New Orleans interests
explained to those present how a
farmer could borrow money on long
time loans at a rate not to exceed
six percent which would enable
him to pay mortgages on his prop
=erty, buy improved farm machinery,
blooded live stock and all things
necessary to farm life.
Mr.. Leppert advanced the argl-
ment that the establishment of
such a bank in the city of New Or
leans would be of especial interest
to the farmers of this section, and
in fact, the whole state of Louis
lana. He said that the Southern
Farm would be mostly benefited by
the Farm Loan Bank, for the rea-
son that we did not have sufficient
local capital available for long
time loans; that money here is
scarce and the demand for money
to develop our agricultural re-
sources is always very keen.
The Federal Loan Act became a
law in July, and as a res.... several
banks will be established through
out the United States, and MIR. Aep-
pert and others, are doing
all in. their power to have one Of
those banks located at New Or
leans.
While the meeting was not as
we'll attended as expected, MUGS
enthusiasm was manifested.

present high price.

present high price.
Marksyille reports a deteriora-
ton due to rains and the weevl,
but it is thought, that the high
price received by the farmers will
over-balanee any shortage of crop.
Monroe reports that the yield will
exceed that of last year by good
margin. A number of gins in Qua
chita are operating day and night.
In Lincoln parish the crop has
deteriorated heavily. Boil weevils
have been active in that section
causing a deterioration Of more
than twenty per cent.
All in all the cotton crop in Lou
isiana has greatly deteriorated due
to heavy rains and the advent of
the boil Weeyil, but the price paid
for cotton should offset any loss
in deterioration, if it is maintained.

Pine decision of Judge hobert FL

Pine decision of Judge ltobert FL
lis in the mandamus suit Of the
Republican party of Louisiana
against Secretary Of State Bailey
was received by tae Clerk of Court
of the parish of East Baton Rouge
Monday. The decision is in favor
of the Republicans and directs
Secretary of State Bailey to place
the names of presidential electors
chosen by the Republicans on the
election tickets. The Judge gave no
reason for his decision. The As
sistant Attorney General, Gamble,
on behalf of Mr.. Bailey, asked for
a suspensive appeal, which was
granted by Judge Ellis. This case
will be heard by the Appeal Court
shortly.
Congressman Lazaro was in Baton
Rouge the early part Of the week,
and there gave out an interview
which should be of interest to the
Democrats Of this section and the
state in general. The congressman
says that the East is falling into
the Wilson column more and more
as the campaign goes on, and that
| Wilson will be an easy winner in
!! the presidential election.
| DR.. Lazaro was in the office Of
the Secretary of State going over
the official returns of the Seventh
| Congressional District election, at
which he was elected over both
1
sopponents by nearly one thousand
votes. He said:
Wilson has gained immeasufably
III the East during the past two
months. The people are beginning
to appreciate the work Of Wilson
and are beginning to distrust
Hughes. Even the Republicans ad-
nit the Hughes campaign has
been failure
Dr.. Lazaro is Of the opinion thai
the rank and file Of tae Progress
ives will not follow the Republicans
because they realize that they vii
be playing into the hands of tht
same old crowd from which they
reyolted four years ago.

FREE SCHOLARSHIP IN THE
SCHOOL OF Y0IIR CHOICE

- i5 q y
The Tyler Commercial College, of
Tyler, Texas, is positively the only
business college in the state which
teaches a thorouh course of prac-
tical, modern bookkeeping and
business training. Other schools
teach theoretical bookkeeping,
some of them call it actual busi-
ness. but it is not. The CONNER
ciaf room of the Tyler Commercial
College is a community o busi-
ness houses of various kinds,
Banks, Wholesale, Commission,
Real Estate, Reatal, Insurance, etc.
Each student is engaged in real,
active business, learning to do by
doing. Every entry made by the
student during his entire course is
originated by an actual sale or
purchase it may be grain, it may
be groceries, dry goods, real es-
tate or stock in a corporation, but
the transaction is really performed
and every paper required in the
transaction, whether check, note,
draft. receipt, mortgage, deed or
what not, is filled out by the stu
dent. Partnership contracts are
drawn up and agreed upon be-
tween the parties forming the
company. Articles Of incorpora-
ton are drawn up. Through these
practical methods the student
learns business as well as book
keeping; they learn how to meet
one another face to face and trans
act business in d business way, in
stead of copying theoretical trans
actions from a text book as is
done in every other commtrcia
school in the state. It takes more
teaching force and better teachers

Und0sea Liner Commerce to Be
Abandoned BY Germany

New York = Despite the success of
the Deutschland venture, Germany is
prepared to abandon, for the time be-
ing at least, her merchant submarine
program because of failure of the Bre-
men to reach an American port &C
cording to reports that have been re-
ceived from abroad
From an official source it has been
learned that the Bremen eluded the
British Channel patrol and should have
arrived in America 10 days ago. The
absence of the vessel has convinced
maritime experts that the submarine
has been lost at sea- 1t is probable
that her fate never will be known
The September seas are admittedly
hazardous and this fact may explain
the fate of the Bremen. There is
practically no chance for submarines
to make the undersea passage in the
winter.
One report which has gained favor
here is that Germany intended to send
several submarines across the sea and
the first one reaching here was to be
termed the Bremen The losses OF
others, this rumor said, were to be
concealed. This is hardly possible,
however, as the British admiralty is
known to have been disappointed at
the failure to capture the Bremen
