The government has issued an ur- ists. The war departments in Washington are geatly in need-of help in those two branches. The Depart ment of Labor is building a new set of houses for Federal employees which are expected to be finished before September.

LOANING MONEY
 ON CHARACTER

There is an article in the July Farm and Preside. in which the writer says:
 "When President Wilson, in pro- clamation issued April Is. 1917, called on the farmers of the nation to omit no step that will increase puroduc- tion on their land it occurred to a group of New York business men that many farmers in that state would be unable to respond to the call be- cause of lack of capital. Seed and fertilizers were high priced. Labor was not only high but scarce. The season was unusually cold and back ward, which would necessitate rapid work in planting when the weather became favorable.
 "eTo furnish the money with which farmers could buy seed fertilizers, machinery, and labor, these business men organized the Patriotic Farmers Fund, which Is now in Its second year. The object of the fund was to aid the small farmer and renter who had no regular banking connections. and to furnish him money on a
 CIldIdClo 4Od1I De1SlS' l 4lC 4c11 SOA farmer could obtain all the credit he desired, but there were thousands of honest, hard-worikng men who could offer nothing in the way of security that would be acceptable to the banks. A little cash at the right time would be a godsend to such a | man.
 "The directors of the fund began | by appointing local loan committees l in various communities throughout | the state. Each committee consisted
 of three men, usually two farmer.
 and a banker or business man-citi
 zens who commanded respect ant | were possessed of sound judgment During the spring and early sum
 mer $284,S42.6S was lent. The av
 craze amount of the individual loan
 was surprisingly small. One farme
 borrowed as little as $6.1O in order t.
 buy two bushels of seed potatoes,
 ''The number of acres planted witt
 money loaned from the fund was S4,
 367. Of this acreage, 5,6S9 to pota toes, 6,156 to beans, 5,8S2 to buck
 wheat, and 5,S24 to miscellaneou garden produce. Out of the S2S4, S42.6S loaned, s15,610.25 was expend
 ed for fertilizer and $20,748.25 fo , labor. The rest was used for seed, t } prepare ground, and to cover har vesting expenses.
 "The reports show that these loan made possible the production of ss, 6O0,0OO worth of crops. It furnishe the farmers own capital and effort and to work out his efforts to a sue

DEMOCRACY OF
 KING GEORGE IS CAUSEOF WONDER

Paris, July 19.-George V is de- scribed as a democratic King" by woman correspondent of the Petit Parisien who writes of her visit to Buckingham Palace on the occasion of an open air investiture.
 '%The sight of King George in the midst of his people at this ceremony filled me with mingled astonishmenr and admiration" she asserts. When the American labor representatives said that with King George they had no impression of being in the pres ence of a king, they bestowed the highest praise on one who is only, and who is quite content to be only the first gentleman of his kingdom.
