Some Of the most powerful II political

No longer is the Minister OF the Gospel
standing afar off and speaking to his peo-

his trumpet and called them together, like
the Captain Of old, and he is doing much
to aid the government not only by preccpt
but by example, for the minister WHO'S true
to a sacred cast who looks toward the flu
ture in any intelligent way, knows that it is
rot the person who stands off crying Lord

days of the prophets when there shall be

HELPING THE FARMER

No effort has been spared to impress the
farmer that he must bear large share OF
the burden of winning the war tor Amer
ica Speakers in theatres, writers IN maya
zines and orators in pul2lts have exhorted
tie farmer to plow, plant and produce. lie
has been urged to raise another row OF
beans. another field of potatoes, double his
wheat acreage and to cultivate every
available foot of land.
The government has been so busy with
the war on the other side that there has
been little time for any but military prepa-
rations. The business Of fighting must
have priority over everything else.
So the farmer has been confronted with
the task of helping to win the war and then
been left more or less, to shift for himself.
Confronted with a multitude of problems,
he faces task of no mean proportions. He
i willing to remedy the shortage of labor
and horses by motorizing his farm.
But the production of farm machinery
i hindered by the shortage o materials.
Government orders, which precede all
others, have made it almost impossible for
the manufacturer Of tractors, for instance
to obtain steel, and the situation is daily
growing worse
Already the farmer has cried the warn
s1bS ludI IICiC lS d SIlOIl dSC Ol Ill ldDOl
aid that something must be done, even if
il amounts to the CONSUMPTION of farm
labor. But there is one thing that can be
done before this extreme is resorted to-
i1anufacturers of farming implements
must have priority of steel, second only to
war orders, or it will be necessary to dis
continue the manufacture of implements
of agriculture, almost as important as the
manufacture of munitions.

STATE AND CLERGY

The arrest and expulsion of several cler-
gvmen from Mexico City on the charge OF
having failed to comply with certain fed
eral provisions, indicates that disloyalty
in the church. is to be expected in the
present time of stress. And while this is to
be deplored, it yet only emphasizes the tact
that the clergy as a whole have been most
loyal to the government, since the opening
OF the war.
In all of the churches of New York CITY.
and in nearly every sacred edi6ce through
out the country, the Stars and Stripes are
displayed, they are seen from the exterior
o. the buildings, and they are borne proud
ly at the head of the choirs, as they enter
for the Sunay service.
In our own city since war was declared,
the Stars and Stripes have been displayed,
and at the Christ Church the rector has
designated some lad to proudly bear the
American colers, and the bearer of the flag
and the cross bearer entering the church
side by side.

FARM LOANS

According to a statement of the Federal
Land Bank, total of &c farm loan associa-
TONS with total membership of 497, have
been organized in Florida, with view to
taking advantage of the farm loan act.
Applications for total of nearly three
quarters of million dollars in loans have
been made and recommended by this state.
In making his report Howard G. Arnold
secretary, said
I'VE have concluded two bond issues of
S2o0,OOO each and have Just been author
lied to issue a third series of bonds of
S25O,OOO. These bonds have all been sold
at a premium and we have our fourth bond
issue sold at a premium as soon as we can
get enough mortgages closed in order for
us to apply for same"
The report further says:
! 1--WE have urged and insisted that the
!, applicants speed up the procuring of their
abstracts SO that we can close the loans,
x We do not see why, after this bank
has organized the association, had them
appraised, notified associations as to such
of their members whose loans have been
approved and the amount approved for
each, and ask them to get up abstracts, and
even furnished the forms for the abstracts
to be transcribed on, they do not speed
their end up and get the money that is here
for them.
Our legal department not only checks
and examines the abstracts that sent
in, but where there are errors and omis-
sions that cam be remedied, goes to con-
siderable trouble in carefully pointing out
how such errors and omissions can be rem
edied so that they can pass the titles. We
q, doing everything can to hasten the
placing of actual money into the farmers
hands consistent with sound business judo
ment and usage. We of course have to
insist that the applications and procedure
be in conformity with the requirements of
the Federal Farm Loan Act, and we have
to insist that the evidence of title furnished
us be such that we are reasonably sure that
the title to our security is good
Some of the applicants seem to think
II is is mere technicality, but the directors
of this bank cannot do otherwise than 20
insist that the requirements of the law
which created this banking system be COM
piled with. If we get careless as TO titles,
this bank, which, as time goes on should
be of inestimabe aid to the farmers, would
be forced into liquidation"

The CRATE fire is such cheerful, lively
member of the household on chilly morn
ir gs and evenings, that it is loved in spite
CT its spendthrift ways. The present fuel
situation, however, suggests that the CRATE
should be filled with coal much less often
than in the past. It should be used when
only little heat is needed for short time.
I should be fed on waste wood as much
possible. The Pickering flames of a small
Ell fire may be made sufficient to excite the
fancy rather than the scorch and the big
re ar of too full fire place. When steady
heat is needed economy suggests doing
without the cheer and running the more
Sodate stove.

MAY KEEP RIGHT ON

Congress has been in session long time new and was to have adjourned this evening; but ap- parently the situation has become so grave that congress will either continue this present session CT an extra session will be called. The pacifists dare not leave the governments steering gear in the hands of the president for fear he may get reckless. Not only that. but the legislators have been kept at work so long during this last term of the administrat~ ion that they have acquired the habit, and possi ply a liking for one another. You never can tell. However that may be. the legislators cannot be parted very long. They prefer one another company than go back to their constituents and answer lot of foolish questions.
