FARMERS Warned
OF NEW SW|NDLE
MAN is ADVERTISING THAT NE
WILL ORGANIZE FARM LOAN
ASSOCIATIONS FOR $500.
SMALL TOWNS MAKE RECORD

Washington. - Another scheme for
swlndllng the farmers of the United
States has been discovered by the fed
elal farm loan board. A man adyer-
using himself as an authorized organ
lzel OF national farm-lOnn associations
is sending out advertising matter EN-
Diazoned with the national flag. stat
ing that he will organize such assocla-
'uons mt $500 each, and will teach 9th
ers the trick for certain sum of
money. His advertisements have
reached farmers and business men
over large part of the United States.
lie claims to be so busy organizing
national farm-loan associations that
he needs help, but will take time TO
teach others for monetary ,considera-
tion.
All such representations are fraudu-
lent. In order to borrow under the
farm-loan act, it is necessary for
farmers to organize cooperative ma
t1Onal farm-loan associations in their
local communities. 1t is a violation of
q ruling of the federal farm loan
board, published more than year ago,
for national farm-loan association
or joint-stock land bank to spend
any money for promotion purposes.
Associations thus organized will not
be chartered by the federal farm loan
board. Farmers are warned therefore
against anyone asking a fee for his
proffered services in connection with /
applying for loan under the federal
act.

Results of the smileage campaign,
which put books of theater admis-
sion coupons on sale in nearly every
town and city in the country, show the
small towns and villages far ahead of
the cities in overselling their proper
tionate quotas of books.
Pilot Rock, Ore, was the first town
in the country to send in a check. Lau-
rens, Iowa, a town of 900 population,
took in 500 before the first smileage
book was received. Titouka, Iowa,
with 200 population, bought 1858 worth
Of books, the largest sale in proportion
to population yet returned
The coupons in, smileage books are
exchanged by the soldiers for admis-
sion to entertainments in theaters
built in the camps by the commission
on training camp activities. Admis-
sion charges range from 10 cents to
25 cents, or from two to five smileage
coupons.

Any American soldiers lost on the
torpedOed transport were protected by
United States government insurance
and government compensation. Those

were covered by automatic insurance,
which is payable to a wife, child or
widowed mother. The automatic in
surance aggregates about $4,000, net
ting $25 month for 240 months. In

months. -

given by the government without
charge and regardless of rank or pay,
ranges from $40 to $75 month, based
on the number of dependents. Pay
ments under the compensation feature
of the military and naval insurance act
in case of death are payable to a
widow, children, or dependent Wild |
owed mother.
The automatic insurance ceased on |
February y, but the compensation !
feature of the act is a separate pro-
vision. The scale of compensation in
case of death follows:
(a) For widow alone, $25
(b) For widow and one child, S35.
(c) For widow and two children,
S4750, with $5 for each additional
child up to two.

lble to the widow and children, does
not exceed $40

Now that American troops are TAX
ing their places in the trenches, atten-
tion is again directed to an estimate
by the secretary of war, that the losses
up to June /, 1917 of the British ex-
peditionary forces from deaths in ac-
tion and from wounds amounted to but
Z per cent of the total of all men sent
to France since the beginning Of the
war.
The ratio of losses of this character
today, because of improved tactics, is
less than Z to every 100 men.
IT is the opinion of the United
States food administration that the
gross maximum profit for wholesalers
in flour should not exceed from so to !
75 cents per barrel. The profit to re-
tail dealers in original mill packages !
should not exceed from 80 cents to |
$1.20 per barrel, depending upon the
character of service performed. Where
retailers sell in amounts less than the
original mill packages, the gross profit
should not exceed 1 cent pound
Women with fluent knowledge Of
French are being trained in several
cities for work in France as tele-
phone operators with the expeditionary
forces. They will not be sent over
in one unit, but ordered to go in
groups from time to time. No infor-
nation can be given as to the locality
In which they will be stationed.

horses are still wanted for the VET.

JOHN PURROY MITCHELL

D HE DEATH of John Purroy Mitchell dramatic
 his life had been. As Mayor of New York he had known power dignity He had administered revenues and appointed mek public ofce during each year o ms service than constitute the civil list of some European states
 One familiar with American institutions will find two ia miar conditions attaching to public opinion of Mchel the euogy that follows his death and the sharply dVld ed opinion political merits that attended his official ca reer
 In every city especially in every great city, has grown up division of opinion economic in it's origin The separation ancient and world wide It is the division be- the and the havenots between those who desire equaze the distribution of wealth. and those who are en- gagged in centrazng wealth.
 Mitchell a champion and hero of the hayes He was sincere believer in the principle that the rule o the success ful the wealthy will make country prosperous

 Quite recently such money to control elections had oawed because of comparatively late advances in leg saton By virtue his defeat the campaign ended in dis grace and even indictment of many humble and of powerful supporters of it.
 Mitchell continued to be admired even by his enemies The American people like fighter They like who is loyal to his friends and The American people scious that the struggle is between systems rather than be- individuals They admire the strong individuals who the economics of America when such individuals must be opposed.
 The American struggle in the economic areas, is not bitter the European struggle Americans find time to precate their opponents They bitterness to the grave The eulogy of Mitchell is sincere It expresses the innate his fellow citizens put upon him. those who did not political views his economic alliances
 There is added pathos in his tragedy. Mitchell would have desired death in the presence of the foe not futile death by accident while learning to fly.

JUNE WAS NOT so
 COLD AS MANY OE: US BELIEVED II

Many people in Bridgeport hold the belief that the month of June just ended was the coldest June they ever knew, but the records as kept by Co., operative Weather Observer William Jennings hardly supports that view. The mean temperature for the month was 66 degrees, while the nor nal temperature for June, the aver age for many years, is 67 degrees, so there was a deficiency of only one de- gree for the last month. It seemed colder than that to most of us.
 The maximum temperature for the month was 93 degrees on the first and second, and the minimum was A degrees the 21st. The greatest daily range was 32 degrees on he first, and the least degrees on the 11th.
 The total precipitation for the month was 5.27 inches, an excess of 2.21 over the average, and the great est rainfall in any "A hours was 3.O1.

STATISTICAL METHODS

N HE METHOD of reporting the wealth of country in \ terms of money alone is defective and misleading Such statistics should always be accompanied with statement quantes and the comparative figures should be out in the way. It is highly necessary that national wealth should be considered in terms of commodities as we'll in terms of vaue else people may suppose themselves growing richer when in fact they poorer Money of commodities and is not in itself wealth If man had pile of gold nine feet high and could not exchange of it for the commodity food he would death He could have of the goods that make life comfortable except such he could produce himself His gold would without utility
 Wheat and such things should be stated bushels well in values If there is half much of these things at twice the value the nation not richer but poorer This prin cple, broadly speaking holds true for all commodities The exclusions commodities in of needs injurious used.

on the 22d. There were seven days when more than .01 of an inch of rain fell, IS clear days partly cloudy, and cloudy days. The pre- vailing wind direction was southwest. There were thunderstorms on the 9th, 7th, 12th and 22nd.
 The highest barometer pressure was 30.24 on the 18th. and the lowest 29.33 on the 12th, both observations reduced to sea level.
 These figures show that June was a little cooler than usual, and that the rainfall was considerably higher than the average, but that on the whole it did not vary a great deal from the average of Junes for the last 40 or more years.

ITALIAN CRACK
 FLYER IS KILLED

New York, July S.---Sergt. Giafelice Gino of the Royal Italian Flying Corps, who was training American aviators to handle Caproni battle planes, dived to death before a crowd of several thousand persons at Hazel hurst Aviation Field, Hampstead, L. l., yesterday.
 Gino had carried Major Gen. Ken1y, Chief of the United States Depart ment of Military Aeronautics, on the third trial flight of the first American built Caproni with Liberty motors. Showered with congratulations on the success of the demonstration, he jumped into a small machine and climbed slzyward for series of breath taking evolutions.
 Then, according to the official ex planatiop of the accident issued last night by Gieuseppe Bevione, Chief of the Italian Military Mission in the United States, Gino made fatal mis- take in judging distances.
 The expert tilted his machine for a nose dive when he was less than 300 feet above the ground. Twenty yards from the ground he realized his dan ger, but it was too late to straighten out. The machine struck the turf a few yards from where Gen. Kenly stood and rebounded 20 feet in the air. It Jew apart and dropped in pieces to the ground. Gino was pinned under the engines.
 He died on the way to the base hos pital. His skull was fractured and his body badly mangied.
 Cine was. born in Milan ss years ago. He was to have been made a Flight Lieutenant shortly. His body lay in state at Hampstead last night. Other aviators may undertake at his funeral the honors he performed when Resnati was buried and which he planned to repeat when Major John Purroy Michel was buried. He flew down Fifth avenue, scattering roses over the Resnati funeral cortege,

many cases the owners Of such cows
are ignorant of this fact or else are
prone to overlook the deficiency be-
cause Of the relative cheapness of
the grass and roughness necessary to
maintain them. But why keep the
low producing, improbable COW when
it costs but little if any more to keep
the good one?
True, good cows are high priced
and will be for years to come, but
there is a way to improve your herd
without any great outlay Of money.
Sell off what you know to be your
lowest producers and invest in a
dairy bull whose ancestors on both
sides have a guaranteed record for
high production. Such an animal
will come high but remember that the
bull is half the herd. If you feel that
you cannot afford to own such an
animal individually, cooperate with
some Of your neighbors also interest
ed in improved dairy stock, form a
bull club and own the animal jointly.
Heifers resulting from this mating
with your best grade cows will be
greatly superior to their dams in
