High Money Tension
Money rates in New York during
the first six weeks of the year ruled
higher than during any correspond
ing period in forty six years. This
is explained by the unusual rates pre-
yailing for merchants bills and 9TH
er loans and the one per cent advance
lover last year, in the rediscount
rate of our Federal Reserve System.
The Bank of England is following
our lead and may be expected to re-
tain it's seven per cent minimum dis
count rate until our Federal Reserve
Banks abandon that level. Most OF
the foreign nations would be glad to
borrow here if they could be accom-
modated But the situation is being
carefully safeguarded SO as to pro-
vide the necessary credit facilities for
our own borrowers and to prevent
too large offerings of foreign secur-
tiles before those already placed have
been thoroughly assimilated. All
the world entertains wholesome re-
spect for dollar credits which are
in demand throughout Europe.
Important News
Continued tension in the money
market. as evidenced by relatively
high rates prevailing for call and
time loans, as well as commercial
paper. General banking conditions
are improved and the Federal Re-
serve System makes better showing,
as does nearly all of the banks thru
out the country. 1t is generally con-
caded that the bank deposits are well
on the increase and that we have hit
the low mark for falling deposits.
The banks of Crowley County are
ehowing considerable strength and
are in good strong position with de-
posts on the increase.
Going Strong
We have entered a period of in
creased business and industrial con-
servatism and. through cautious re-
adjustments. the country is returning
70 a normal basis of living and doing
business. Everyone is taking &C
count of stock and seeing to it that
the dollar of 1921 buys something
worth while. OF all nations the
United States has gone further and
done more in curtailing extravaganza.
wartime excesses and
realizing that nothing but honest
sergery will avail to cut living costs.
1t is heroic work which will account
for a nation that has ex-
celled all others in quantity produc-
zion. Merchandise stocks are being
reduced everywhere. profiteering
now brings jail sentence. and retail
merchants are making concessions
which is turning high cost merchan-
disc into cash.

SNOW WORTH A MILLION
TO FARMERS

Everything that has to do
with the weather is working
for the farmer; an open win
ter so that he has been able
to get his breaking done, get
his bitches in shape, put his
machinery in good shape;
lakes all full of water, water
for direct irrigation, and
then comes a fine big snow
that is sure to put the
ground in fine shape. Cheer
up. Mr.. Farmer, things seem
to be coming your way.
We have received our
spring shipment of steel
goods, such as forks, rakes,
hoes, shovels and garden
plows. These together with
the stock we had on hand
fills us up so that we can
supply your every need when
1t comes to tools to work
with.
How about the chickens?
1t will soon be time to shut
them up. Have you got the
chicken yard fixed up? We
have all sizes of poultry
fence. The Sun Rise, that's
the kind you can stretch
without bagging, and it will
turn dogs, pigs. etc.
Our line of house decorat-
ing supplies is complete
paints, varnishes, stains,
floor paints, floor wax. wall
paper, kalsomine, Waltone,
wall paper cleaner. and re-
member that paint is prac-
tically one dollar cheaper
than a year ago. Linseed oil
is also down and it doesn't
pay to let your buildings go
without paint for the spring
rains, and the Hot sun will
sure do more damage than
the cost Of a few gallons of
paint.

pieces of furniture left that
we are offering at very low
figures. And say, mattress

POOR COORDINATION OF PUBLIC
DEFENSE MACHINERY.

The comparative ease with which
four bandits pulled off a $4,000 rob
berry from bank messengers at Chelsea,
Mass, last Saturday morning indi-
Gates marked degree Of skill on the
part Of the participants; but the fact
that they made theis getaway at first
was due in large part to the inefli-
cheney Of the system Of public defense
against that sort Of crime. The
newspaper reports tell that police in
cities and towns mol far removed from
the scene of the crime were not noti-
fled until three hours after the bold
robbery had taken place and that po-
lice officers in thos, towns report hay-
ing seen an automobile bearing the de-
scription Of the bandit car which
passed through THEN Jurisdictions UNI
hindered because the officers were igno-
rant of the fact that robbery had
been committed. Civilians, too, re-
port having been shot at by persons
in car that went careening past them
and they didn't know what it was all
about until they read in the newspa-
pers some hours later that band Of
desperadoes was making fight after
carrying out one OF the boldest hold
ups revords in the police annals Of
New England and that they happened
to be along the route chosen by the
bandits for their flight.
There surely was something lacking
in the methods OF protection in the
district OF the Chelsea crime One
of the first acts Of the police of Chel-
sea should have been 10 spread broad
cast the account of the robbery and
the description, brief though it may
have been, OF the automobile bearing
the fleeing bandits. The Chelsea po-
lice were notified of the crime even
while the crime was being committed
they should have been equally as prompt
in acquainting the police of surrounding
towns in order to stop the flight, if
possible. In extenuation, it may be
said that New England is not accus-
toned to this sort of crime as people
are accustomed to it in other parts
Of the country; and hence the system
Of defense and pursuit was not as
carefully worked out on practical
basis as it might otherwise have been
However, the Chelsea crime, taken on
top Of the South Braintree. Mass, rob-
berry and murder, should serve as
warning enough that New England is
not immune from the raids Of the des-
peradoes and that plans must be laid
in advance.

Orleans School Needs.

In voting to erect a new school build
ing Orleans has acted wisely. The
new $4,000 structure will probably
house the high school alone, the pres
ent quarters being used for grade pur'
poses only. Orleans has been crowded
IN its school capacity for years and il
win never regret the. decision to pro
vide proper educational facilities. Mon
ey may be saved on public enterprises
but it is no place to begin when the
education Of the American youth il
concerned. The erection Of a splendid
new school building in Orleans viii not
only add TO the permanent worth OF
that place but contribute to the char
acter and growth Of the entire south
part Of Orleans county.-Newpori

With the oncoming Of the winter ele-
ments, automobile stealing is giving
way to the old-fashioned horse steal
ing in Vermont. An automobile high
and dry on blocks. with battery re-
moved to the electrical doctors and
the radiator drained, does not appeal
to the thief as an easy proposition to
get away with. So the thief turns to
the box stall for the favorite piece Of
horse flesh. Hanging used TO be
thought about the right kind of pun
ishment for the horse thief. Senti-
ment has changed considerably since
then, but there still is public de-
msnd that the horse thief be given a
stiff dose of the law. Public senti-
ment ought to be needed when the
thief is caught.
