they are; no, nor three or four times.
Nor me. Not Bit agreed the Ad-

big fighting, and lots of it, to finish
this war; and there can't be big fight
ing without proportionately big cas-
ualities. On the basis on which we're
fighting just now. / wouldn't care if
our casualties were ten times as num-
erous; and do you know why? Because,
or the present relation of gains to
losses, of what we sell to what we're
getting for it; if our casualties were
ten times what they are, the war would
be over before the summer is over, and
Germany would be down and out"

said the other officer. "A rare lot of
these present casualties will be fight

CURE FOR IAs0M0NIA Is
SAID To Be FOUND NOW

VIENNA, Aug. A we'll known
Austrian physician, DR.. Ebstein,
claims the discovery of a physical ex-
ercise that will cure insomonia. AS
explained in the Physical and Diet
Therapeutics Journal" the cure con-
sists of the simple process of grasp
ing with both hands the head board of
the bed and of straining upward until
the arm and shoulder muscles are ia
tigued.
Sleeplessness in most cases is caus-
ed by irregular blood circulation in the
brain, DIR. Ebstein explains. This comes
to pass because of the slight difference
in attitudes between the head and the
heart when one is lying down. By
raising the arms and straining upward,
the physician claims, the flow of the
blood to the head is increased, while
at the same time a certain degree of
fatigue aids in getting to sleep.

4 BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF
THE i. S. FARM LOAN ACT

The act provides for the creation OF
twelve federal land banks and permits
the establishment of any number OF
Joint land banks for the purpose OF
making loans at a reasonable rate OF
interest, for long periods of time, on
farm lands.
A Federal Farm Loan Board has
complete control over these banks.
Twelve federal land banks are pro-
vided, one in each of twelve districts
into which the country will be divided.
These banks are empowered to lend on
first mortgages on farm lands in
amounts of 800 to $4,000 for approx
ed purposes. The loans are to be made
through farm loan associations and
agents.
@NAtAOA0l Aal III ivan dobOSIdllOuS--lS-
cal acknowledgements exclus-
lively of borrowers-are authorized.
Thess associations must be stockhold
ers in the land banks in proportion to
the amount their members wish to
borrow.
The act prohibits the federal land
banks from charging more than per
cent on any mortgage or requiring fees
not approved by the Farm Loan Board.
The borrowers will share in the net
profits of the bank, because they are
stockholders. 1t is contemplated that
ultimately the borrowers will be the
only stockholders.
Joint stock land banks are author
lied. They are corporations for car
rying on the business of lending on
farm loan bonds. They are to be under
the supervision of the Farm Loan
