forts before August is gone. BY that
time American strength in France
will strike the last German offensive
possibility from the list. Not IL she

mand to change a defensive into or

thing like victory to Germany now
to show for the awful cost of its 1915
campaign.
The allies have lost not more eff
fectiyes since Mar. 81, than have the
Teutons. probably mot more than &c
per as many; while Americans have
gone forward to Offset all that Ger
many and Austria could call from the
cast. Even the German war masters
with all their brazen pretenses, must
see the inevitable end.
The U-boat arm has failed, as the
safe arrival of 100000 American SOL
diers in Europe furnishes indisput-
able evidence.
The drive" that promised the suf-
fering, peace clamoring German
people to end the war in six weeks at
the most, has failed.
The peace" arrangements with
Rumania, Poland and East Russia
that promised food for all Germany,
Austria Hungary, Bulgaria and
Turkey has. failed in a most heart

Now the Austrian drive into Italy
shows strong evidence in the first So

the American farmer ought to be Civ

compelled to mortgage his farm. Hf
believes that despite the Fedora
land Banks. the American farmer
s,iIl suffers great disadvantage in
ohtninine cash to carry on his bust
ness. To rcmed, THE he has formu
lated sinplincd rystcm Of farm
banking and susgc,ted il to William
g McAdoo tho Secretary Of the
TIeaaur, and 10 the American Food
Controller, Herbert Hoover.
The farmer al present does bust
ncfs under tho stupid and costly pol
icy OF the merchant of 40 !ea:s ago,
said Mr.. Iuhin 10 The Associated
Tress. He supplies his needs on
long time credit in place of having
recourse 10 tho chief banks OF the
country for cash wherewith to place
himself on cash basis. The farmer
is under the thumb of the money
lenders and OF the store keepers Who

like any other business man? He's
got land, the best security in the
world
The Federal Land Bank has made
II possible for him to put up his
farm and get money on long time
mortgage loans. These loans are
made. however. for charging the
farm or making improvements or for
paying of old debts. But only a linn
tied number OF farmers will mort
gage unless they have to. The cen
sus for 1910 shows that of 3,948,722
farms we have 1915 percent mort
gagged. what these farmers need
together with the other 66.4 per cent
is credit al "A bank instead of the
p costly. vicious credit at the town
store.
The farmer can be put in a posi-
ton TO pay cash for what he buys by
having the i2 Federal Land Banks
increase their functions so that. in
stead OF merely granting mortgage
money at a reasonable interest, they
may also Issue n certificate that the
farmer is entitled TO credit within a
fixed sum. This certificate deposited
In a commercial bank In any place in
the union would enable the farmer to
obtain credit on open account at the
rate say Of per cent per annum and
against this account he could draw
nv check with the right Of closing
his account at any time by paying up,
when his certificate would be re-
turned TO him.
What should he done is 10 reduce
the banking business down 10 the
farmer. Let's put him in the fav-
ored- nation class. too. This can be
done by legislation permitting the
Land Bank to certify to the farmers
credit"
Just what effect Mr. Lubin's plar
may have upon the minds OF the sec.
rotary OF the Treasury and of MIR
Hoover depends largely upon their
grasp Of tho agricultural problem
that confronts tho nation We have
long been convinced that events
were shaping disaster, and that
somebody 81 foresight and power
must awake to tendencies that are
slowly but surely grinding the pros
poets and courage out OF ordinary
farming We have seen no evidence
thus far that tho magnitude of de-
preston among average farmers has
been recognized in high places. and
We have feared that great suffering
must result before corrective meas
ures would be provided But let us
