STOCK men
TO GET LOANS
CATTLEMEN ASSURED THAT
CURTAILED.

Sioux City, Oct. 1.-The federal
the extending of fairly liberal bank
ing accommodations to the live stock
breeders and farmers of the north
west, according to data reaching the
Sioux City grain exchange. A serious
misapprehension respecting the atti-
tude of the board, it is stated.
1t is semi-officially announced
that it is the policy of the reserve
bank board to regard live stock and
other food producing industries as
"vitally essential" 1t is explained
that the board could not direct or
compel loans by any banks, but it
had been planned with the reserve
banks to provide aid for the agri-
cultural interests to the extent OF
nearly $1,000, 100000 this year.
Assurance has been given that the
reserve banks would be liberal in
rediscounting cattle paper. The
statement of a Chicago banker. John
Fleycher, who has returned from a
trip to Washington, has been re-
ceived by the exchange. This western
financier is credited with the state
ment that the reserve authorities
have requested western bankers to
go ahead as fast as they can in MAX
ing loans to cattlemen for carrying
stock to the next shipping period.
Representatives of the live stock
industry in Sioux City territory have
been assured by the reserve, board
that it has entertained no intention
of curtailing their credit. Relief for
is described as the possible destruc-
ton of the live stock industry
through the curtailment of banking
loans was asked by the committee
representing the live stock produc-
ers. 1t further requested that the
banks of the reserve system be en-
couraged to aid financially in mar
keting the products of the north
west.
1t was further announced by the
reserve board, says the statement,
that the boards information showed
loans to stockmen were for actual
production purposes.

IOWA HAS 4
BIG ROAD FUND
PREDICT ACTIVITY IN HARD
SURFACING ROADS NEXT
YEAR.

Des Moines, Ia, Oct. Although
Iowa has been expending on an av-
erage of $75O,00O month during
the summer months on permanent
road building, the state now has on
hand over $7,OO0,00O in it's road
fund collected from the automobile
licenses this year. If road building
materials should decline highway Of
ficials look for an active year next
year in the paving of primary roads.
Contracts have already been let
for SAG miles of primary road inn
provement in the state, the highway
commission reports. There are now
seventy-six separate road improve
ment projects under contract. The
total expenditure represented is
$10.211.2S6. of which the federal
governmer. pays one-half.
Paving is now going down in sew
en- counties in the state and there
are from one to three paving outfits
working in each county. Each out
fit is laying paving at the rate of
from 400 to 600 feet a day. The
seven counties in which paving is
now being laid are Polk, Cerro Cor
do, Scott, Floyd, O'Brien. Sioux and
Linn. This week Clinton county
awarded paving contracts for eight
cen miles of paving on the Lincoln
highway.
Federal aid awarded to Iowa for
road building up to the present time
totals $7,944,106, the highway Off
cials report. Applications from Iowa
last March to the federal govern
ment amounted to $8,22O.885, for
federal asd and further applications
were discouraged by the government.
The Iowa officials at that time were
ready to submit applications for
$584,00O additional for Polk county
and $234,O00 for projects in three
other counties.
A statement credited to Ralph
Faxon. secretary Of the Des Noines
chamber Of commerce, that Iowa
would lose 100000 in federal
aid money unless road improvement
projects were started at once. is
branded as erroneous by the state
highway commission officials.

PUBLIC HEALTH
NURSE SCHEDULE
MODERN HEALTH CRUSADER
WORK In LAKE
COUNTY.

With the opening of the schools
both in towns and in the country,
comes enthusiastic reports of the
health work that is planned for this
year. l.. L. Shoemaker, principal of
the Chester schools, reports an en-
rollment of over one hundred, M. w.
La Bounty, principal of the Rutland
school, says that. every child in
school under II years of age has en-
rolled on the Modern Health Crus-
ader work, and every school that has
been heard from is eagerly entering
the contest for banners and pennants
this year.
On the first day that the schools
of Madison opened, Washington
school sent to the nurses office for
their Modern Health Crusader sup
plies, and every child in school is en-
rolled to do the work. Similar good
reports come from the other three
ward schools, and the children, as
well as the teachers, are highly en-
thusiastic.
Lake county won five grand ban
ners and thirteen pennants in the ma
tional contest last year. This year
several counties are in the race and
there is going to be stiff competition,
and this will mean that every school,
and every child will have to watch
very carefully, and do the very best
work possible.

said, were that the republicans
would elect twenty-three. showing a
net gain of eight.
The present senate stands forty
nine republicans and forty-seven
democrats. A net gain of eight

LIVESTOCK GOES
T0B|G MARKETS
HEAVY SHIPMENTS BEING MADE
OVER HURON DIvIsION-WILL
BRING FARMERS MILLIONS.

Huron, Oct. 1.-The Dakota divi-
sion of the Chicago and Northwest
ern railway company is known
throughout the country as one of the
heaviest divisions regarding the
movement of livestock, which is con-
tinued practically in the same intens-
ity during the entire year. About
800 carloads of stock from this part
of the country are routed through
Huron each week, II is stated at the
office of the division superintendent
here.
This stock is shipped to Sioux
City, Sioux Falls, Chicago and a
smaller percentage to South St.
Paul.
A few years ago the heavy ship
ment of livestock was found to be
sent through here on Saturdays, but
it is declared this condition is now
changed and livestock sent through
on week days will average as many
loads as on Saturday.
During the month of August this
year 1923 cars of livestock was
routed through Huron. 1t is expect
ed that just az large number Of
loads will be found to have been
shipped through the city when the
reports are mads at the end of the
present month Of September.
The season of. the year when most
of the grass fed range here is said
to be during the last of September
and up to the middle or last of Oc-
tober. lasting during the run about
one month.
The car situation on the Dakota
division is said to be improving and
now 1t is an easier matter to obtain
them than it was at this time last
week.
One of the reasons for the present
shipment OF cattle In such large num-
bers is due, it is said, to the present
shortage of ready money.
Farmers who are either heavily in
debt or in need of ready cash are
shipping their range cattle and also
their blooded stock to market In or
der to obtain funds with which to
meet payments.
II there had been q large crop in
this section of the country this year,
it is said, the sale Of blooded cattle
would not have been vitality neces-
sary to the purehred livestock pro-
ducers at this time.
