Good Advice.

Talk less and say MORE" Is the ad-
Vice given TO group Of girls. No one
expects girls conversation to be pro-
found and philosophical, but there IL
no doubt that more thinking before
speaking would make the words OF
many girls better worth hearing. The
trouble Is not that girls lack intelli-
gence, but that they are rather lazy
about using their hyaina.

WHAT UNCLE SAM
DOES With MONEY
How Funds Raised by Sale Of
Liberty Loan Bonds Is Ex-
pended by Government.
FIGURES ARE STAGGERING
kstimated Total Of $4,000, 100000
Will Be Spent This Year for Prepa-
ration and Maintenance Of
Our Fighting Forces.

Now that the people of the United
States are to be asked in the Fourth
Liberty Loan drive, which opens Sep
tsmber % and continues three weeks,
to lend the government at least twice
As much money as has been asked be-
fore, the treasury department realizes
that there Is natural curiosity on the
part of the public to know for what
all this moneyHis being expended. The
amount already spent on preparation
and the maintenance Of the fighting
forces staggers the imagination, and
the prospect is for an even larger ex-
penditure In the present fiscal year,
the total being estimated at $24,OOO,-
COG 900.
Figures received at Liberty Loan
headquarters for the Seventh Reserve
district from the war department give
an idea of the vast sums which have
been expended and which will have to
be spent to win the war, and this in
formation brings home to all Ameri-
cans concrete idea of how much
money 1t takes to wage q modern war
and how our money is being used to
win victory.
The following figures are an answer
TO the query OF the average Liberty
Bond buyer: "Just what will Uncle
Sam do with the money from my $500

ward meeting the expense Of war, it is
pointed out, but when the bonds of
millions of Americans are brought to-
gether, the total Of cash provided
reaches stupendOus totals.
Since the United States entered the
war in April, 1917, the war department
has raised, equipped, trained and, with
naval help, sent across the sea upward
Of q million and half Of soldiers, and
has practically as many more under
training at home. OF all this vast
number of men sent abroad, the num-
Der lost in transit as result OF
U-boat attacks up to September l,
1918, was less than 500.
During this same time 100000
rifles have been made, inspected, as
sembled and issued, and the weekly
production is growing.
The total amount Of money directly
appropriated by congress for the ord
nance program, for which authorize
ton has been given to incur obliga-
tons, amounts to approximately $12,-
0OO,OOO,OOO.
From the beginning of the war to
June 30. 1918, the last day of the past
fiscal year, contracts were placed by
the ordnance department from apprO-
priations and authorizations existing
at that time amounting to $4,000, OOO,-
600. 1t is now estimated that during
the present fiscal year ending June 80,
1919. the actual cash expenditures for
ordnance will reach a total Of $1,000
100000.
The major items for which cash ex-
penditures were made or for which
contracts were placed up to June 80,
1918. were as follows:

Review of The First Year of
The Federal Farm Loan System
reduced amounts, which the borrow
ers declined to accept.
Expense Of Operation

ers declined to accept.
Expense Of Operation
Notwithstanding the unusual ex-
penses incident to the operation of
new machinery and to the appraise-
n,ent and determination of title on
many loans that have not yet been
closed, the expense of the banks in
doing business has been within such
limits as to justify the expectation OF
the Farm Loan Board that these
banks will easily be able to operate
or a difference Of one-half OF l per
cent between the loaning rate and the
rate which they pay on their bonds
None of the banks, of course, received
any appreciate income from their
business during the first half OF the
year, but during the last half the
business of the Spokane Federal land
bank, for example, was sufficiently
profitable to come within about $1O,-
nGo of wiping out the excess OF ex-
penses incurred in the first half, and
the volume of business on its books
assures it a handsome surplus for the
second year.
Senator Fletcher, who introduced
the first bill and took prominent
part in securing the passage Of the
Farm Loan Act by Congress. has been
advised by the Treasury Department
that up to March 31st, 1918, fifty-fouf
farm loan associations have been in
corporated in Florida with member
ship of approximately fourteen hun
dred; that the total amount of loans
approved aggregate the sum of ST.
5l5.-20, and that the amount of loans
actually made totaled 1888, 100.
