The original owner will get a so

which is more than he would ordi-

for his land, his annual payments to
retire both his first and second mort

In some of the states second mort

by private individuals to lend money
to landless people of proper charac-

have not saved the so per cent as a

BY FRANK r. WILSON,
Federal Farm Loan Bureau,
Washington. ID. G.

Students of American agriculture
have been greatly concerned over
the remarkable increase in farm ten
antry.
Years ago when land was plentiful
and cheap, tenantry was almost an
known. The man who wanted to farm
simply went out and purchased cheap
land or settled on government land.
Practically all of the land was farm
ed by owners.
When the supply of cheap land be-
came exhausted and most of the land
occupied. there was no longer an
outlet for the increasing number Of
landless farmers. Consequently, those
who wished to engage in the business
were compelled to dicker with those
who already held title to the lands.
The result was a rapid and astonish-
ing increase in the value of lands.
Farm land ownership now represents
billions of dollars in land values
which constitute positive bar to the
getting of farm homes by landlesF
farmers.
The question is frequently asked
'sIf the Farm Loan Act provides
cheaper money for land purchase
will it not make it easier for some
men to get credit to monopolize land
| increase land values, make it harder
for the tenant farmer, and perpetu'
ate and broaden the tenant system 2
The answer is. that the privilege
of borrowing under the Farm LoaT
Act is denied to any except actua
farmers. It is denied the Landlord
and the Spectator. Furthermore
the size of the loans is limited t.
SIC. 900 to check the tendency towarC
too large farms and land monopoly.
So, it will be seen that the Farm
Loan Act gives to the rich no add
, tional advantage in buying land, bu
does give an added advantage to tn
, landless. It exerts its financia
/ pressure. and will always do so, i
, favor of actual working-farmer own
ership and against absentee landlord
ism or the holding of lands, out o

FOR THE AFRICAN MISSIONS.

More than forty persons come to
our dispensary every day; there is

devotes herself to washing and dress
ing the ulcers with which these poor,
black people are so often afflicted.
Thanks to our dispensary we have
been able to draw these people to us.
Now, when their children are dying,
they lose no time, but hasten to bring
them to us, when, few years ago
they were afraid to come near us. The
day before yesterday some one came
for me at o'clock in the morning;
newborn child would have died with
out baptism had 1 not been called
or If, having been sent for, had in
sisted upon first hearing holy mass.
We helped another member of this
family, a poor woman who was un-
fortunate enough to be the mother of
twins (The Africans are superstitious
about twins). One of our Sisters had
gone to town and on the way met this
woman and her two children. Her
father was a chief and could not give
her shelter under his roof, and her
husband would have nothing to do
with her. The young woman's mother
threw herself on her knees before
the Sister and begged her to help her
daughter. The Sister returned home
in haste to bring me this news and

sented to come to church for the
christening ceremony. However, later

One Of the features of Thursday
was the brilliant paper by Rev. Peter
G. Yorke, d. D., of San Francisco, on
the Teaching of Liturgy in the Ele-
mentary School," Character Forma-
ton in Our Schools" by Rev. Patrick
Cummins, o. S. B., Conception, Mo-,
and Memory Work in the Grades -
by Rev. Brother Gilbert, F. s. c., Bal
timore, concluded the work of the
Parish School Department..
The necessity of the uniformity of
textbooks, and the matter of voca-
tional training were the subjects dis
cussed at the last meeting of the Su-
perintendents' Section.
At IL o'clock there was general
meeting Of all departments and sec
tions, when the resolutions were read
and adopted. In the afternoon there
was a meeting of the superiors of re-
ligious communities, representatives
of colleges and parish school teach
ers, when an address was given by
Rev. John d. Sherry, o. M. l., of the
Oblate Scholasticate, Washington, D.
c., also by Rev. E. F. Garesche, S. J.
The convention, in point of inter
est and enthusiasm, and in the value
of the papers and discussions, was
one of the most satisfactory in the
history of the Catholic Educational
Association. Buffalo Catholics ex'
tended royal hospitality to the dis
tinguished visitors, who left the city
by the lake with many pleasant mem
cries.

BARNUM E. BAILEY CIRCUS Is
COMING.
Greatest Show on Earth Will Soor
Exhibit in This Vicinity.

Once again the glad tidings are be-
ing spread broadcast telling of the
coming of Barnum & Bailey's circus.
The greatest show on earth, 1t is an
nounced, will positively be exhibited
within easy travelling distance this
season, and, as usual, large percent
age of the population will declare q
holiday to visit the show.
The big circus will exhibit in Min
neapolis on July 16. II.
It is promised that nothing to COM
pare with the present Barnum &
Bailey performance has ever before
been seen under canvas. New and
novel features have been imported
from abroad and q program of events,
thrilling, educational and screamingly
funny, will occupy every instant IN
three rings, four stages, the riggings
above and the hippodrome surround
ing for more than three hours.
There is new and gorgeous page
ant entitled, aladdin and His Won:
derful Lamp" in which nearly 1,400
persons and one thousand animals ap.
pear in magnificent costumes rivaling
the dress of the people of the famous
arabian Nights" story. This will be
followed by host of acts in all parts
of the great enclosure. There will be
sixty clowns, a greatly increased me-
nagerie of wild and untamed animals,
four great herds of elephants, several
caravans of camels and many recently
born baby animals.
The free street parade, which will
start from the circus lot at 10 o'clock
on the morning of circus day, is en-
tirely different from anything of the
kind ever shown before. 1t will be
three miles in length and there will
be bands on foot, on horseback, and
riding on top of wagons of red and
gold. There will be six bands in all
and they will be assisted by three
steam calliopes and an electric piano.
With the largest tent in the history
of all circuses, the Barnum & Bailey
circus promises this season to make
good again its boast that it is the
Greatest Show on Earth. Five rail-
road trains comprising 80 railroad
cars, will be required to transport it's
paraphernalia, and more than $50
horses will be used to transfer it's
wagons from the railroad yards to the
show lot.

THE BISHOP OF DUBLIN.
Distinguished Irish Bishop Returns
from an Interesting Visit
in France.

Msgr Donnelly, the veteran auxil-
larry Bishop of Dublin, who has just
passed his eightieth year, has returned
safely from most interesting visit
to France, where, despite his age and
the fatigues of the journey in War
time from Ireland to Gaul, with it's
attendant dangers, he celebrated sol.
emn High Mass in Orleans Cathedral
on the feast of Joan of Arc. It was a
remarkable display of piety. The
Cathedral where Mass has been said
on this feast without interruption for
nearly five hundred years, was crowd.
ed with the public and the soldiers,
the General Commanding the Army
Corps, the Commandant of Orleans
and a great number Of officers, mill
tary and civil. Msgr. Lanfant, Bishop
of Digne, who, with the Bishop Of Or
leans, recently visited Ireland, was
the preacher, and in an eloquent dis
course saluted England and particu
larly America, acting as new Lieuten
ants of Christ as the Blessed Joan
herself would have said. In the eve
ming the Bishop of Orleans gave q
charming discourse at Vespers, ir
which he complimented Msgr. Don
nelly, whom he called not only one
of the most distinguished Of Irish
Bishops but the most French of Irish
Bishops, for did he not come to the
aid of France in 1870 at the head of
an Irish ambulance which cared for
the French wounded on the battle.
field. Recalling the sublime pages OF
the history of Ireland the Bishop of
Orleans uttered the most ardent
wishes that in true union with the
British Isles, Ireland might be restored
to her past greatness.

Before his election to Congress Mr..

a probate Judge of Hennepin County

present incumbent. The defeat of
Mr.. Smith is one of the accidents of

neapolis in very emphatic way the
possible dangers that Turk in it. AS a

the first rank of his profession, and
his former clients will doubtless be
pleased to know that his services are
available to them.
Mr.. Gleason had the distinction OF
being the youngest or "baby'' mem
