Farm Loan Banks have the right to
issue bonds secured by first mortgage
on farm lands, to an amount equal al
ways to twenty times their capital
stock. The Government will subscribe
the full amount of the capital stock
or such part of it as is not subscribed
by the public. We are now establish ,
ing these Rural Credit Banks. They
ought to be in operation in January
or February, 1917. They will pro-
vide credit for the farmers of this
country on long time mortgages, rang.
ing from five to forty years, at low
rates Of interest, in no event exceed
ing six per cent. 1t is one Of the
greatest measures ever enacted by an
American Congress. In the hearings
the Farm Loan Board has held
throughout the Northern and Central
States of the Union it was everywhere
disclosed by the testimony of farmers
that it was practically impossible for
them to secure loans below 81, 900 up
on farm mortgages at any price, and
that the great mass of small farmers
in this country were unable to i'm
prove and develop their farms and to
increase the agricultural wealth of
their country, because they could not
get essential credits. 1t was also
shown that on farm loan mortgages
above 81, 900 the rates ran all the way
from five per cent. per annum to six
ty per cent. per annum, and it was
difficult always in most of the States
to secure mortgages on farms even
where the security was unquestionable.
This really splendid piece of bene-
fetal legislation, ranking as it does,
with the Federal Reserve Act, and ma
king farm credit as available to the
farmer as commercial credit to the
business man of the country, is de-
nounced by the Republican party in it's
platform adopted at Chicago in June,
1916, in the following language: I'VE
favor an effective system of rural
credits as opposed to the ineffective
law proposed by the present Demo-
cratic administration"
Will Mr.. Hughes, if elected, repeal
this Federal Farm Loan Act? If he
stands by his party's platform he must
either repeal this legislation or sub
stitute something for it. Are the far
mers of this country, who have fought
for fully a century to get rural cred
it's bill, going to turn the Democratic
party out Of power just as they have
won their great victory, and the banks
are actually being established, and put
in power an administration which is
hostile to this great law?
If the American people want to as
sure. the maintenance Of honorable
peace, so long as it is possible for hu-
man wisdom, patience and courage to
maintain it, if they want to secure a
continuance of our present prosperity,
and to have their Government genu-
inely conducted in the interest of the
masses of the people, they will re-elect
President Wilson and support him
with a Democratic Senate and House
of Representatives.

Prof. Won Noorden, the eminent sci
enlist, advocates the use Of Whiskey
in the treatment of severe diabetic
cases. The Rockefeller Institute also
reports several patients relieved of
this dread ailment through the use of
whiskey.
Results from what is known to the
Medical World as the Allen Treatment
in this country comes reports that
whiskey helps relieve the body of ex-
cess sugar and serves to keep the per-
centage of sugar in the blood normal,
thereby bringing about a pronounced
betterment in diabetic cases.
The use Of Duffy's Pure Malt Whis-
key is of essential value in diabetes be-
cause it is an absolutely pure distilla-
ton of thoroughly matted grain, and
is made for medicinal purposes only.
Through it's use as directed, the diff
ferent functions invariably acquire a
