FARM LOAN BANKS

Louisiana Farmers Should Take
Greater Advantage Of the Assist

Now that the crisis OF war has
passed It IS important that farmers
resume operations on sound eco

crop risks by divorsincation. 70 eco

Of the Farm Loan Bank for cheap
credit for investment, equipment and
operation.
Some Of the features Of the svs-
TEN may be enumerated as follows:
l. Where the farmer Is handi-
capped by load o. debt. either per.
sonal or secured by mortgage. and Il

himself in a position Of security and
comparative ease by taking a Federal
Farm Loan mortgage on which, at
the present time. he would pay ~
per cent interest per annum, payable
semi-annually, plus one per cent IT
the debt per year in the way of amor
tization, which will pay eff the debt,
principal and interest, in about thir-
ty-fye years.
2, Where he owns farm which

table he can borrow money on these
terms through the Federal Far,i

4. Where in any community there
are tenant farmers who, by selling

ing their accumulated savings, can
obtain the money TO buy lands IN re-
gions where land is cheaper. It is en-
tirely possible, through the Federal |
Farm Loan System and Federal land
banks, TO give such tenant reliable !
information as to prices, quality OF

ditions which will cable the Federal |

of service.
There is a great need for relief
among the millions OF children in for
eign lands who are suffering and will
continue to suffer for long period
because of the deprivations forced
upon them during the war. Through
the new plan OF the Junior Red Cross
the children OF the Gulf Division, as
wei as thousands of other Juniors
throughout America, will be given an
opportunity to help these children
across the sea.
The questions arising are: Are we
not vitality bound to help the children
OF those countries? What can we do
for them Are we not even serv ng

the letter the creed of unsslfishness:

purpose OF carrying on relief WORK

Strict sanitation and precautions
against the introduction of the infec-
ton from infected localities are the
measures In combating the abortion
disease OF cattle recommended by DR..
W. H. Dalrymple of the department OF
veterinary science, Louisiana State
University.
"A great deal Of investigation has
been conducted in the abortion disease
OF cattle, as well as experiments with
vaccines, in the form OF bacterins, OF
killed abortion germs, etc, to try to
md preventive that would be effec-
tive" says DR., Dalrymple. However,
according to the most reliable author
tiles, nothing has yet been found that
can be considered specific, although
many are advertised; and until some
ling has been obtained. which is TO
hoped may not be far In the future,

"Ali affected animals should be I'm

"A thorough Job of cleaning up
should be done, so as 10 leave the sta
bles or houses, where affected animals
have been, as free of any infected ma
terial as possible. Everything inside
the stable should be flushed with hot
water, in which may be mixed some
effective germ killer, such az one or
the other OF the coal-tar dips, in solu-
ton of about per cent.
Lime should be freely used, and
especially where drains and bitches
connect with the buildings,
Where practicable, the stable or
building, after thorough cleansing and
disinfecting, should be left vacant,
and open, for week or two al least.
people who attend on the affected
animals should have their duties con
fined entirely TO them. and should have
no connection whatever with the
healthy stock.
"or, II help cannot be spared for
this work alone, they should arrange
to have some old clothes, or oteralls,
and shoes, that they may use and leave
on the infected premises, and which
may ultimately be burned up; and
they should have some disinfectant SO.
luton in which to sterilize, or disin'
feet, their hands. etc, before leaving.
Animals that have aborted should
have their afterbirths removed az soon
as possible and burned up; and the
uterine (womb) and vaginal cavities,
and the outside Of the genitals and

hoofs, should be carefully treated
with a good disinfectant For the in.
