like other business enterprises, 1T

1t takes money to make
Frank A. Vanderlip, President of the
National City Bank, of New York, said
on one occasion in an address at Wash
ington: "We must borrow in advance
of our savings and liquidate as we save.
This applies to all millionaire and en-
ploye alike"
This is exactly the FARMERS SITUATION.
This is the amortization plan. The
farmer gets his money in bulk and pays
it back out of his savings.
Until recently our FINANCIAL
SYSTEM took NO account of the FAR
MER. Everybody else could borrow
money on terms to suit their particular
business.
The returns from the farm were
slow in accumlating and to borrow large
sums meant hardships and sometimes
loss of the farm at the loans maturity.
NOW ALL HAS CHANGED.
THE FARMER MAY GET HIS
MONEY TO SUIT HIS INDIVIDUAL
REQUIREMENTS. The short term
loan is no longer the only measuring
rod for his credit. NOW THE FARM
ER'S LOAN is MADE TO ORDER.
A great crisis in our country gave
|, us Washington, Lincoln and Woodrow
; Wilson. A GREAT CRISIS IN OUR
FINANCIAL SYSTEM HAS GIVEN
THE FARMERS THE AMORIZA-
TON LOAN.
Under this plan, by meeting his
small payments each year, and antici-
Ipating future installments in good years,
THE FARMER is SAVED FROM
HARD TIMES and SHORT CROPS
and GUARANTEED against FORE
CLOSURE and MONEY SHARKS.
, Under these conditions, the man who
HESITATESt to get money for his farm

A Duty That Should Be Met.

The recent report of the Delaware
Commission for the Blind contained some
Statements that are not assuring, and
that should serve as an incentive to those
Interested in all movements for helping
the afflicted and unfortunate IN the dlrec-
tion of radical change and reform. III
anv work should appeal to our sym
pathies, and to our Legislative authorities,
il is that which involves the maintenance
and comfort of those afflicted with bind
ness.
This report showed that for the quarter
ending with September last the total
receipts from the operations OF the lnstl-
tuition in this city where the blind are
provided with employment were less than
s.. 500. while the essential disbursements
were more than $500. Here was
palpable and painful deficit OF a con-
siderable amount, which the ASSOCIATION
should not be compelled to meet.
1t is also said in the report that the
work for the blind in this city cannot be
operated, under present conditions, Tor
less than $4,000 q year, against which
there is a State appropriation OF only
e.. 900 a wear. and a municipal appropria-
ton Of only 1000 year. This financial
presentation makes annual deficits an
absolute certainty, unless klnd-hcartcd
citizens come forth freely with subscrip-
tIonS.
But such a work should not be left 70
the chance Of kindly impulses by those
F, who ever have an eye open 20 the troubles

and the city should at least see that
sufficient financial support is extended TO

PRESS COMMENT.
OUR CRIPPLED SOLDIERS.

As incoming ships discharge in in
creasing numbers their cargoes Of wound
ed men we are made to realize more
vividly how gricvously the nations
of Europe have suffered in more than
four wears of war The sight of young
fellows in uniform who have been crippled
for life, who have lost arms or legs, can
not fail to arouse sympthy wherever
they go. They will not lack for the
best medical care and kindly attention.
The government will look after their
present needs and keep watch over
them in hospitals until they reach the
maximum of recovery. So far as these
thousands Of soldiers can be restored
to sound condition it will be done.
But the day must soon come when
most of these men will return to their
homes and seek opportunities to earn
their living as In the days before the war
Very many of them will never be able
to begin where they left off or to resume
their old occupations. They must start
over again as best they may be able,

graded according to their lnlures, could
never make up to them loss OF pr1de

1t will be the right of all these wound
ed men work, wherever they are able,
and conquer the disabilities they have
incurred in the service OF their country.
In a special sense they will be entitled
rot merely To the generous words and
thoughts bestowed upon them today
hut to places where they can command
wages and salaries like their old associates.
The barest recognition Of what they have
done for others who stayed behind
should win for them equality in seek
ing employment, and assure them, after
the excitement OF wartime Is over,

ment will be restored TO Russia. The vari-
Gus elements comprising the late German
Empire will settle down into social and
political constituencies under fairly salts
factory forms of government. The turbu-
lent elements will in due time be sup
pressed and thorough order restored.
And then peace will have her opportunity
TO confer benefit upon al the people.
This is what we look TO from the fu-
ture. And who can say that when these
things are accomplished the world Will
