CANOE FATALITY
 NEAR NEW HAVEN
Woman, Almost Dead, Picked Up in Sound Clinging to Paddle;
 Man Missing.

New Haven, Aug. 29.-As her con- dition is highly nervous with spells of hysteria, the hospital physicians have not permitted anyone to discuss with Mrs. Gustave Goebel the expe- rience she underwent yesterday be- fore she was picked up, barely alive, clinging to a paddle, in Long Island sound, off BradleyS Point. Tn her lucid moments last night she told of a canoeing party of four which in- cluded John Knight who is probably drowned; a Miss Hotchkiss and an other woman. The canoe and an- other paddle have not been found It is thought likely there were only Knight and Mrs Goebcl in the craft.
 So far as could be learned today, there have been no inquiries at any place between Woodmont and Pond Point for any woman who might be missing from among the summer ris- itors. Knights parents and brothers live at Woodm ont, close by where he embarked. They know he was going out canoeing, but did not know whom he intended to take. Mrs. Goebel and Knight appeared at The Anchor McrWin's Point, where the former checked her clothing after changing to bathing suit The couple left the beach opposite The Anchor a:ld padded toward BurrwelTs Beach They were not again noticed. Later in the afternoon a fishing party picked up Mrs. Goebcl some distance off shore. After word reached him, Mr. Goebcl went 10 Woodmont and got his Wifcs clothing.

Louisiana Farmers Should Take
Greater Advantage Of the Assist
ance Offered BY Farm
Loan Banks.

Now that the crisis of war has
passed 1t is important that farmers
resume operations on sound eco.
nomic basis with due regard to soil
building, to the distribution Of their
crop risks by diversincation, to eco.
nomical equipment, and especially to
finance, according toan announcement
received by the Extension Division,
Louisiana State University, from the
y. s. Department of Agriculture. To
this end leaders generally are asked
to direct their attention anew to the
accommodation Of the Federal Farm
loan System so that they may be
in a position to advise individual far
mers and to encourage the utilization
of the Farm Loan Bank for cheap
credit for investment, equipment and
operation.
Some Of the features Of the sys'
tenn may be enumerated as follows:
| l, Where the farmer is handi.
capped by load Of debt, either per
sonal or secured by mortgage, and Is
paving high interest, he can place
himself in position Of security and
comparative ease by taking a Federal
Farm Loan mortgage on which, at
the present time, he would pay IL
, per cent interest per annum. payable
T semi.annually, plus one per cent "
the debt per year in the way OF amor
! tization, which will pay off the debt,
principal and interest, in about thir'
r ty-fve years.
2. Where he owns farm which
is too small to be economically prof
table he can borrow money on these
terms through the Federal Farm
Loan System for the purpose Of in
f creasing his holdings.
3. The tenant farmer who has &C
cufnulated equipment and propert.
for the operation Of rented farms I!
often able under this system to buy .
: farm of his own, using the none.
| obtained through Federal farm LOAF
o for the purpose Of paying 80 pc
cent Of the purchase price.
4. Where in any community ther
70 are tenant farmers who, by sellin
off a part of their equipment and us
j. ing their accumulated savings, ca
:, obtain the money to buy lands in n
~ gions where land is cheaper It is Ell
of tirely possible, through the FEEDERS
ut Farm Loan System and Federal Ian
q banks, to give such tenant reliabl
- information as to prices, quality
o. lands and conditions of settlement |
rs other parts of the country, under col
II ditions which will cable the FEEDER;
lard banks to extend aid to the tel
~ ant on his removal.
