PROPOSED RURAL
CREDITS SYSTEM
REAL SOLUTION
Farmer Relief Legislation as
Advocated by Minot Plat
form Would Have Many
ADVANTAGES Over Present
State Bank.

Bismarck, May 22.-The question
has been asked from what source
can money be derived SO that the
bank of North Dakota may become a
farm loan bank in reality, and fur
nish first mortgage farm loans at
minimum rate to the farmers. This
Is one of the demands in the Minot
platform, which also demanded that
such transactions be placed under
strict regulation and examination by
at least two elective departments of
the state, and that school districts,
townships, villages, cities and mu-
inequalities and counties shall be re-
stored to the right Of handling their
own funds, now deposited in the
Bank Of North Dakota.
The plank in the Minot platform
relative to rural credit bank, means
that the credit of the state shall be
used as an asset and be represented
in the sale of state bonds, secured
upon mortgages. With the money
thus secured at low rate Of interest,
fund will be obtained with which
to loan to farmers upon land mort
gage security. .....
This is the customary manner Of
raising money to loan upon farm
lands, both in this country and in Eu-
rope. When the Federal Land Bank
as we'll as various types Of land banks
in Europe accumulates a certain
amount of mortgages, say hundred
thousand dollars they float bonds Sc
cured by these mortgages. In Ger
many before the war broke out, these
mortgages commanded position in
the market superior to the Imperial
Bonds of Prussia, among the very
vest in Europe.
By enlarging the powers of the
board OF university and school lands,
it could easily handle the matter and
make the loans in precisely the same
manner that they are, tloaning the
school funds now. ,,..,., -
%rItswill be seen that the above plan
is practical and safe method OF aid
ing the farmers in obtaining loans,
and is recommended by the anti
Townley republican platform and en-
dorsed by William LANCER, candidate
Of the party for governor. 1t offers
something secure and practical and
Of great benefit to the farmers them
selves, who have largely been disap-
pointed in obtaining loans from the
Bank Of North Dakota as at present
managed and organized. Further
more, under the anti-Townley plan
there will be full publicity Of all the
transactions and frequent examina-
tion Of the condition of such rural
credit bank, and that the loans will
be made with impartiality and ac-
cording to all the funds available and
the money not sent outside the state,
and the favorites Of any political
boss, that happens to be in power, be
given preference in the matter OF
loans.

Governor to Draft Reclamation Plank
 For the Democrats

Gov. Thomas l.. Campbell. as presi- dent of the League of the Southwest has drafted a reclamation plank for the Democratic platform which he will re- quest delegate to the convention at San Francisco to present to the com mittee on resolutions. Governor Campbell has written Homer Cum mings, national chairman of the Dem ocratic party, enclosing a copy of the plank
 The reclamation plank was incor- porated in the Republican platform through the efforts of Governor Campbell, who has been active in reclamation work for the past several years. As head of the League of the Southwest his interest has extended beyond the boundaries of this state to all states of the south and west. He holds that reclamation work is non- political in character and for the bene- fit of the entire people of the nation. The increase of production through reclamation will solve the high cost of living, according to the governor $ theories.

when he visitel his dentist the price was too high, and he decided to go toothless. However. through one of the unaccountable happenings which sometimes upset all rules, MT. Starr discovered that he was cutting twelve new teeth They are almost through now, although they are not very use ful yet, owing to the fact that his gums are sore, in a fashion familiar to all mothers of teething infants or to boys and girls whose second teeth are re placing their baby teeth, and even ID the older boys and girls who proudly announce, I'm cutting a wisdom tooth.
 Dentists doubtless will contend that such a thing cannot happen. But MT.

ARIZONA PIONEER
 DIES AT AGE IF 84

Word has been received of the pass ing, in Los Angeles, June 16, of Mrs Caroline F. Butler, at the ripe age ot S4. Mrs. Butler, an Arizona pioneer, as early as 1880 was a resident Of Prescott, going there to visit her brother, F. w. Blake, a banker and notably honorable citizen. In 1881 occurred her marriage to Thomas J.. Butler, a former Californian, who in Arizona was prominent in republican, councils, who served as territorial treasurer was receiver of the United States land office at Prescott and was one of the early owners of the Pres colt miner The Buffers also lived in Phoenix for a time, being classed among the "early settlers" who did much for the advancement of the community.
 A woman of fine character, Mrs. Butler was greatly loved by all who knew her. Among the pioneers MT. Butler was known as Long Tom" !" the name given in all affection. He died in California a number of years ago. At the funeral was Ed M. Bake, a nephey, manager of the Gila Valley banks at Hayden, Ray and Winkelman-

Where the People
 May Have a Hearing
About a Landing Field

Dear MT. Editor:
 This is another word on that pro- posed aGrship landing field. Several articles have appeared lately and few Phoenix citizens are interested This is an important matter and more of our citizens must become interested in the idea. The landing field must come sooner or later. It is like parks, playGrounds and public buildings. The usual way is to put off until neccs sity compeIs Much has been lost by that times and it costs many times as much. It will cost less now to secure the ground somewhere close ,in than it will tomorrow or day after tomorrow.
 We are losing more than some think every day we put it off. happen to have son still in the army air ser vice. He is at Maria, Texas His po- kcep well Qp with all government plans. He also knows the mind of most flying officers on the subject. It 1eilI be safe to put it down here that Phoenix is off the map so far as the army flyers have anything to do with it. Civilian flyers get all the informa- tion from tho government flyers, hence they. too, have marked Phoenix off.
 This should not be and must not be. The advertising value of a landing field is immense We cannot estimate that value. Flyers from every part Of thc nation would land here. They will go away with a good impression. We must have them. We are saying to them that they are not wanted by not providing a landing field.
 The argument in one or two articles that we need landing field because the army officers at Douglas want to flv to Flagstaff is so funny that one would not notice it if 1t did not do Our cause harm. Army officers at Douglas are not going to fly to Flag staff very often. That is not what they arc in Douglas for. Let us pre- sent real arguments that we may gain here and with the army.
 The one big argument for the land ing field is the fact that we will have to have it some day just as we have to have a depot or a court house. In suite of the niggardly attitude of con- a,ress. flying is being developed rap idly and will be a great factor in all government and civilian affairs with in a few years. If we do not provide a landing now other plans will be made and we will be in a position that will make it difficult for us to change the plans
 The fair grounds will not do for the permanent field. It is not large enough for the large army planes. They need the 1.8O0-foot field they land at such a high speed it requires a larger field to hold them. The take off also needs a larger space than the fair grounds. Of course it will cost B lot of money even now % get 100

 But there were other places hotter than Phoenix in this vicinity yesterday At Yuma a maximum of 112 was re- ported. while at Needles the mercury rose to IA.
 The longest day of the year yester day kept the sun on the job of shin ing in Phoenix for IA hours and 24 minutes. Having now crossed the line" the days will grow shorter until December 22 when there will be but hours and 5S minutes of sunlight.

 We should back up the chamber of secretary in his effort to get this thing started by talking about it and writing about it and by giving to a fund when the time comes If we make a beginning in earnest, It will be recognized by the government and we will be considered in their plans. Incidentally we will begin to benefit in publicity as soon as we start things.
