Classes in High School
Are Cut Into Sections

Because Of the large enrolment in
the freshman and sophomore classes of
the high school 1t has been found
necessary to divide the classes into two
distinct sections each and these will be
known as the "A" and "B" divisions of
the sophomore and the "A" and 'B"
divisions of the freshman class.
At present there are o60 students in
the freshman class and $50 in the soph-
omore class. The change was made
because it was practically impossible
to handle the big classes efficiently.
The sponsors for the various classes
were named yesterday and are as fol-
lows:
Miss Roman will act as sponsor for
the senior class, Miss Wright for the
Juniors. Miss Book for the sophomore
A class and Miss Burke for the sophie
more B, while Miss Dyer will act 70,
the freshman A class and Miss Ket
tlewell for the freshmen 3.

ARTICLE ].
BY Frank R. Wilson.

Federal Farm Loan Bureau.
The federal farm loan act, adopted
in June, 1916, and signed by President
Wilson shortly afterward. creates .
comprehensive, cooperative banking
system to lend money to farmers and
prospective farmers for purposes Of
land purchase, farm development and
the refunding OF indebtedness.
The system consists of two main d.
visions; money assembling agency.
thru which the accommodations and
savings of the country are gathered in.
and money lending agency. thru
which this money Is distributed for
agricultural uses
The farm loan act. in brief. pools the
farm mortgages of the nation; issues
collateral trust security against these
pooled mortgages, and sells these Sc
curities in the open market.
The establishment OF this cooper
alive banking system was made neces-
sary by reason of the fact that banks
in most part of the uniaed States
have not possessed the facilities to take
care of farm loans properly, because
these loans required too long . time
to run; because interest rates to far
mers have been too high, ranging from
per cent per annum to per cent
per month: and because private
money-l lending agencies had not real
lied the reflex advantages to them
selves of long time, amortized loan
to the farmers.
Machinery For Applying Law.
The machinery provided in the ap-
pilcation OF the farm loan act has
three main divisions:
/. The federal farm loan board in
Washington. D. c., composed of the
secretary Of the treasury, William G.
McAdoo, chairman ex officso: George
W Norris, farm loan commissioner:
Herbert Quick. Capt. w. 8. A. Smith
and Charles E. Lobdell.
2. The twelve federal land banks
turnout the United States.
8. The national farm loan associa-
lions, each composed Of ten or more
farmer borrowers. which associations
obtain loans for their members from
the federal land banks.
The federal farm loan board Is IN
charge OF the entire system. Its first
important duty was to divide the
country into twelve bank districts and
locate one federal land bank In each.
This board also provides the banks
with temporary governing boards dur
ing the process of growth. Later.
system Of cooperative self-sovern-
ment will be inaugurated under which
the associations Of farmers will direct
these big financial institutions, under
the supervision of the federal farm
loan board.
Bonds Issued Against Mortgages.
Each Of the twelve federal land
banks starts business with a paid-up
capital Of $3.50, 1000. subscribed by the
government. II private investors DO

Cattle.
Cattle values hardened owing TO de-
lays to trains.
A narrowing spread is feature OF
the trade. This is due to the manner
in which lower priced cattle have
crawled up during the past few months
and the fact that iong-fed cattle are
abnorrnally scarce. A year ago kliieS
had access to plenty Of bullocks that
had been fed 100 days or more and
were grass fat when laid in. This sea-
son the reverse is the case and While
steers selling above s10.75z look no
higher than early in the month. there
has been an actual advance, as killers
are not getting the same weight or
quality as few weeks back. Weight
is usually available at the expense OF
quality and quality is generally iack-
ing in weight. While January receipts
show an increase compared with last
year. the run has not yielded as many
pounds of beef.
What influence current and impend-
ing scarcity of lower priced cattle VIII
have on middle grades the next Sixty
days will develop. but it can rot be
otherwise than healthy. Already S94
$50 steers show the influence OF the
uplifting movement. The situation IS
somewhat Illogical, as higher priced
cattle make the cheapest beef. but
hides are factor and by-product has
much to do with giving cheaper grades
Of steers a market standing. The face
sticks out that cheap steers are scarce
A year ago packers were taking every
thing. owing to quarantine. whils now
they are competing on everything Mt
for the f1nisher's purposes.
