be made to avail the farmers through
their banks or cooperative organiza-
lions as rapidly as possible of every
benefit of the funds at the disposal
of this board and was very optimistic
as to the benefits to be derived.
There is no limit, either minimum
or maximum, as to amount of the
loan. The interest rate to the war
finance corporation is placed at 6 per
cent and the local bank is allowed a
commission of not to exceed 2 per
cent. Loans up to twelve months are
accepted with provisions for two sub
sequent renewals.
The officers of the American farm
bureau federation are very hopeful of
the alleviating possibilities of this
act.
While they do not consider it as
permanent and believe that the farm
err must not slack in his effort for
an adequate and permanent finance
policy, they do not consider the war
finance corporation funds of very
great benefit in the present emergen-
cy and are urging the farmers and
local bankers of the agricultural COM
munities to make the utmost use of it.

male quartette closed the program
with a number of good selections. A
social hour was then enjoyed by the
guests until the visiting delegates left
for their homes on the evening trains.
One of the important features of
the Red Cross work in the county has
been the service rendered to ~ex-service
men, wei 500 of whom have received
help and encouragement through Mrs.
Berry's efforts. There has always
been a soft spot in Mrs. Berry's heart
for the e~x-service men and she spared
no effort to do everything within her
! power to render the fullest possible
assistance to these boys. Mrs. Berry
has received many expressions of
gratitude and affection which no
doubt she cherishes as the chief re-
ward of her efforts.
During the years of drouth and
crop failure through which we have
been passing, there have been many
calls for assistance from the needy
families throughout the county. An
immense amount of clothing and pro-
visions have been dispensed and have
done much to relieve the suffering
and misery among those whose condi-
ton has been rendered so difficult by
the misfortune which they had ex-
%perienced. Undoubtedly many fami-
lies were kept from breaking up and
children were kept in school through
the efforts of Mrs. Berry.
The misfortunes of our people have
in many cases caused the greatest
suffering to little children and Mrs
Berry has always given her very best
efforts to relieve that suffering
wherever she found it. Throughout
the county, many cases of cruelty ne
elected children have come to her at.
%tention and the good she has done ir
supplying aid and help in such case:
can hardly be overestimated.
A number of cases of delinquency
among young girls have been handled
through the Red Cross office and il
nearly every case, the girls have beer
induced to return to their homes ant
to school and have become helpful ant
contented members of the family.

AGRICULTURAL FUND A
BIG AID TO FARMERS

(By J. R. Howard, president Amer
lean Farm Bureau Federation.)
Plans for the distribution of the
billion dollar fund made available for
the financing Of American agriculture
through the war finance corporation
are being rapidly perfected.
The war finance corporation has
set up in the principal cities of the
country agricultural and live stock
agencies consisting of committees Of
five or men, usually at least
three who are banker residents of the
central city, and the other members
representative of the contingent ter
ritory.
The purpose of these agricultural
loan agencies is to receive and pass
upon loans from the local banks or
cooperative associations within their
territory. If the loan is approved by
the agricultural loan agency, they
pass it to the war finance corporation
for final consideration, following
which, if favorable, the funds are i'm.

loan.
The farmers thus gets his direct
benefit through his local bank or co

gene Meyer, Jr., of the war financ,
corporation board, reviewed very thor
