OHIO Ne VS.

Columbus. o.. Nov. 2l.-SiXty million
dollars 10 lend and no takers.
Such Is the situation OF tho agricul"
tural loan agency OF the war hhance
corporation for the state Of Ohio. When
me agency had been functioning for
month in Ohio not an application for
funds had been filed. j. l.. Hamilton
Columbus, chairman OF tho committee
In charge, estimates there Is between
$50. 900 and $6o.00o.000 available for
Ohio farmers. The amopnt he said
would depend on just how much Is
wanted
Ohio headquarters OF the corporation
are located at 210 South High street
: According to tho operation OF the war
fnsnce corporation act passed by con-
gress. bankers make application for tho
loans which in turn are to be lent TO
farmer clients in need OF money. All
transactions are carried on through the
banks. When bank applies for loan
from the fund. the state committee
either recommends or rejects II, and IN
the former instance the application Is
sent on to Washington with the recon-
mendation.
Congress has appropriated 100000
900 for this purpose.
The loans are TO be made for agrlcul-
tural purposes. says the act that IS.
for any purpose connected with the
growing. harvesting. preparation for
market or marketing OF agricultural
PRODUCTS; or the breeding. raising. fat
tening and maretIng OF live stoc." and
are to be made to banks. trust com
panles. etc. that have made loans for
such purposes or that may have dis
counted or rediscounted notes given for
the purposes enumerated.
II the advance Is TO mature within
Itsix months and without renewal privi-
leges. the interest rate Is to be s per-
cent: the rate on longer maturities or
renewals Is ia percent.
Figures at the Ohio committees office
show that farmers in most other states
eagerly are taking advantage OF the
fund. but show that tho heaviest loans
have been made in states west Of the
Mississippi river.
The use 10 which the fund Is being
put Is shown by the fact that 5000 900
was advanced TO q cooperative assoc
!ation IN California. on canned fruits
and vegetables: $250.O00 was advanced

ton OF tobacco TO China. and loan of

road, and Do 1t Now.

Suppose the road Brown is on is the coffee
or tea road. Hundreds have had trouble on
that road. Doctors have sounded the warning
for the public, and raised the "no-traffic" sign
for their patients-time and time again. The
drugs caffeine in coffee and THEM in tea, keep
whipping the nerves tending to interfere with
sleep, upset digestion, produce high blood
pressure, and to wear down health and ettl-
cheney by the disturbance of rest and nervous
balance. Some folks 60 a long way on the road;
some folks don't seem to notice the Jolts-tor
while, anyway.
But what would you say to Brown about
choosing the safe road instead Of the risky one'
And suppose Brown were you?

Of your nei66hbors problem

Postum is free from the possibility Of harm
for any one, and full of comfort and satisfac-
ton for every one. Even the little children
can share in the delights Of hot, mealtime
cup of Postum.
No fears, either that Postum will rob the
night of sleep as coffee so often does. Postum
is friendly drink for any one any time.
And it's good When you've tried Postum
few days you'll wonder why you ever thought
of sacrifice in leaving off coffee or tea. Rich.
and favory and satisfying, Postum suits the
taste so that there's no longer any thought
that you should drink it; only the thought
that you want to drink it.
Postum opened the better road and the safe
road for coffee and tea drinkers more than,
a quarter of a century ago, and steadily
increasing multitude is travelling that road
up and on to better enjoyment, better eff
cheney, better accomplishment.
You can buy Postum wherever good food
and drink are sold and served. You can begin,
now, this turn to the right road which you
would so quickly recommend for Brown-by
ordering Postum from your family grocer or
telling your waiter at the restaurant to serve
you Postum instead of coffee or tea.
Make Postum according to directions and
enjoy it's delicious flavor; find the change in
feeling after weeks use ofPostum Let the
family join you in the trip up the sunrise way.

SUPPOsE it was Browns case that was
~ up for consideration. Brown is heading
in direction that has brought trouble to a lot
ofpeople-a direction known to be full of risks.
Brown himself isn't going any too good. There
are da;s when he hits the bumps harder than
he can comfortably Standard he shows it.
There's another road that Brown could
travel safely-smooth, comfortable, pleasant
and absolutely safe.
And Brown came to you for advice. And
you'd look at the facts and you'd say: "Why,
Brown, there's nothing to this thing. 1t
doesn't take any argument to decide this.
Turn to the right and take the smooth, safe
