FARMER AID VOTED.
War Finance Board and Credits
Adopted by Senate,

Washington. Dec. 14.-Overriding
stubborn opposition. the coalition Of
southern and western senators last
night forced the adoption Of the reso-
luton to aid the agricultural inter
ests which are suffering heavy losses
because Of the sagg!ng prices of farm
products.
The measure was carried without a
roll call after test vote disclosed
the opposition hopelessly outnumber-
ed. The resolution. as finally adopted,
directs the secretary OF the treasury
to revive the war finance corporation
with view of finding foreign mar
kets for agricultural and other prod
ucts.
II also declares II to be the sense OF
board should take such action as
may be desired to permit member
banks to grant liberal extension OF
credits to farmers at fair and reas-
enable rate of interests.
Opponents OF the bill succeeded in
obtaining an amendment. offered by
Senator Smith. Georgia. providing
that the war finance corporations eff
forts In locating new foreign markets
should not be confined merely to agri-
cultural products but should be ex-
tended to all kinds OF products.
The section dealing with credits to
farmers also was materially modi-
fed. Instead of peremptorily direct
ing the federal reserve board to per-
NIT member banks to grant liberal
credit extension. the resolution now
merely declares ii to be the opinion
of congress that the board should
take such action.
Many members who supported the
r'en sure expressed doubt whether it
would help the farmers. but thought
it's intentions were good.
Opponents. notably Senator Glass.
VIRGINIA and Senator Mclean, Con-
necticut. said the farmers should be
told tho truth, and not he misled into
tic belief that the measure would aid
them. Senator Mclean Charged that
tho resolution was written in bad
faith"eand told the senate il was
useless to try to make. gold out of
paner."
Senator Glass produced figures to
show that credit initiation was In
creasing. He stated that the redis-
counts of the Chicago federal re-
serve bank now were s455, 100000, an
Increase of s221.000.0 900 compared
with a year ago.
The st. Louis federal banks dis
count were $4,000 900, compared
witH s6fe00,000 a year ago: those of
Kansas City, s146.000,000, against
s9S,n0o.a 600 year ago: those of Min
heapolis. SIP 000, 900. against $4,000
GEO year ago, he stated.
Increases in the south were at
about the same ratio, he added.
Senator Edge, New Jersey, oppos-
ing the resolution, declared that the
billion dollar corporation formed in
Chicago last week afforded "a practi-
cal method of attempting to solve
these problems"
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota
sharply criticized the new corpora
ton.

Chicago Horse Market.

Chicago, Dec. 10.-Trade in horses
here this week showed the custom
airy slowness and dullness, with one
OF the heaviest December runs for
several years on hand. About 500
head showed up. the fact that there
was no market during the stock show
week being one Of the factors in the
| accumulation.
| In spite of the dullness Of the trade
| nearly all the arrivals sold, the hold
| over being placed at only 90 head.
Prices were uneven. buyers wanting
| tho best kinds and wanting them in
good flesh.
In fact the feature OF the market
was the apathy shown by all kinds of
buyers for the thin horses. They
didn't want these kinds and they
plainly made this fact known by
sharply lower bids.
Just as means OF illustrating gen.
eral stagnation in the sale OF under
fed stock good roam drafter weigh
ing in the neighborhood Of 1850 lbs.
and very thin-one Of the farm
horses that had been turned in the
stalk field after the fall work was
done-was led into the ring and after
auctioneers had nearly talked their
heads OFF, the animal turned at s1b2.
Horsemen and dealers believe this
horse would have commanded 500
more had 1t been In condition, as 1t
had excellent quality. was sound and
Young. There were many sales SINH
lar TO this one during the two ses"
sions. demonstrating that the farm
ers who turn the work stock they ex-
pect to sell later into the stalk fields
must expect these animals to be
sharply penalized when they are
shown before the buyers.
During the war period the flesh
condition of horses failed to count as
much and farmers got in the habit OF
turning everything out, neglecting to
nut the ones they expected to sell In
the barn every day and give them
grain and hay. Indications are that
many farmers are continuing this
PRACTICE. altho the war conditions
have ceased and buyers now demand
fat stock During the era OF high
priced feed the horse feeders in the
east practically discontinued business
and there is no demand now for the
thin kinds. with nobody to fatteD
them. So unless they are fat when
they come TO market there is no
chance Of their bringing anywhere
near normal prices. Buyers will take
a fat horse little short on quality in
preference to thin one that is as
sound as a dollar.
A large proportion of the run went
to the eastern states this week. One
load was sent to Wisconsin for farm
trade and one buyer bought a load OF
chunks weighing from LOO to 1900
lbs. for shipment to North Carolina,
the prices ranging from $50 to $50.
There was no call for expressers.
Local demand was light and centered
on light and heavy wagon horses and
few drafters.
Trade was best this week for the
heavy draft horses. the bulk Of these
selling at s175@s225. Three excep-
tionally choice drafters weighing
from 1900 to 200 lbs. reached $500.
Quotations follow. few selling at the
