BILLION DOLLAR FUND FOR EXPORTERS SOON
 WILL BE AVAILABLE
Regulations Covering Loans to Firms Being Prepared
 by War Board
By Review Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, March 25-The
 governments billion dollar fund foI
 financing foreign trade soon will be opened to American exporters through loans from the war finance corpora
 tion Regulations now being prepared by the corporation to cover advances
 will provide for the lending of sums
 up to s5O,OOO,0OO to any individual i firm, corporation or export associa- tion, probably at 5& per cent for a maximum of five years, on adequate collarteral.
 Reports indicate that exporters are 1 planning to make extensive use of the | governments foreign trade fund as soon as the regulations are complet- ed and the corporation is ready to accept formal applications.
 ] This is caused by three principal influences.
 First-European countries which will need great quantities of American materials during the next year or two ] for reconstruction and to make up for lack of constructive enterprises in the war, have neither the gold nor the credits to pay for their purchases in this country and their inability will be increased when at the end of the war the United States government stops making loans to the allies. Second Foreign exchange rates, following removal of artificial govern mental influences by Great Britain, France, Italy and the United States last week, have prpdueeG situation in which American goods would cost foreign purchasers more than their value in dollars at this time if pur- chasers were forced to pay cash As a result, American exporters must sell on credit if they are to sell ill the quantities needed abroad. and the war finance corporations fund will provide a means of pooling these ex- port credits unGer government super vision
 Third-American banks have not been accustomed to financing export transactions and cannot legally ad- vance as large sums as may be need ed to finance large export operations Nor can they ordinarily make ad vances for more than 90 days, where as for most foreign trade transac- tions a year of IS. months are needed on credits
 It is the last condition which has driven export organizations to the war finance corporation, since the law provides that the corporation may make loans direct to exporters only if loans cannot be obtained through regular banking channels at reason able terms.
 Eighty export organizations, con- sisting of groups of manufacturers have notified the federal trade com mission of their intention to operate under provisions of the Webb act.

"Moonshining usually is a habit

Bulletin on Sheep.

"That new bulletin just issued by the
Department of Agriculture at Augusta
is a real help to the sheep raiser"
This book was prepared by Sheep
Specialist c. 81. Crawford, and covers
the raising of sheep on Maine farms in a
plain and thoroughly practical way.
Feeding suggestions adapted to winter,
spring, summer and fall conditions are
given. Means of increasing the clip and
percentage of lambs by careful breeding
is explained. Then perhaps most inter
esting of all, the various diseases and
parasites to which sheep are heir have
been treated plainly in this bulletin so
that those who are not entirely familiar
with them may learn to diagnose the
different symptoms and apply the proper
remedy.
Profusely illustrated throughout, it is
bound to be appreciated by the thou
sands of farmers in the state who are
building up the sheep industry to Its old
time position in the farm system.
Copies may be obtained free by residents
of Maine upon request to the Depart
ment of Agriculture, Augusta, Maine.

A remarkable story Of the patriot
ism and devotion shown by French
American family Is related In the
Petit Nicois, the continental edition
of the London Mail states.
At the outbreak Of war French
man named Cailles, forty-four years
old, who kept a drug store In Los
Angeles, Cal, left his wife, daughter
and two sons to come over and tight
fol his native country. He was NOR
tally wounded before Verdun In Jan
uary, 1915, but before dying had the
following cablegram sent to his wife
"I die facing the enemy. Let oul
two sons come out and take my place
In the ranks. Adieu."
On receipt of this cablegram the
two sons, Joseph and George, Joined
up and In due course arrived In France
Joseph was killed in 1917, not rai
from the place where his father met
his death. He was thirty-four ano
was also a druggist.
George Cailles went through mucn
fighting without wound until at ten
o'clock on the morning Of November

badly gassed. He recovered and has
been in -convalescence at Nice pend

Points That Aid Poultry Success.

Be sure that the male at the head Of
the flock is pure bred.
The Mediterranean or egg breeds are
Leghorn, Minorca, Ancons, Spanish and
Blue Andalusian.
The American or general-purpose
breeds are: Plymouth Rock, Wysndotte
Rhode Island Red, Java, Dominique and
Buckeye.
The Asiatic breeds are: Brabma, Co
chin and Langshan.
The English breeds are: Sussex, Cor
nish, Dorking, Orpington and Redcap.
For general farm use the American
breeds are probably the best.
Pure-bred poultry means uniformity
of products. Uniformity of products
means increased profits, If products art
properly marketed.
Given the same care and feed, pure
bred fowls make greater profit thar
mopgrels.
Subscribe for one or more good poul

Every poultry keeper who is interested
in breeding better poultry should have
