ers in those States are now taking
advantage of the ability to borrow
money at reasonable rate and by
improving their buildings are max
ing farm life more attractive and
farming operations more profitable"
! 1t was just before the splendid
work was halted by the injunction
suit of banks stakeholder, that the
Treasury Department published a
pamphlet entitled "The Farm Loan
Primer" which tells in simple form
what the Farm Loan Act is. AS this
highly beneficient Act has now be-
come operative again after this long
delay, we publish extracts from the
Primer so that readers who may have
forgotten what it was all about, may
become posted as to how to take ad-
vantage of this plan.
@. What should a person do de-
string to make a loan?
A. He should apply for member
ship in the nearest farm loan associ-
alton.
@. What should he do if there is
no national farm loan association
within easy reach?
A. He should join with other farm
ers to organize a national farm loan
association in his community.
@. How may national farm loan
association be formed?
A. One Of the organizers should
write to the Federal land bank of
that district asking for blanks and
instructions as to how to proceed,
which will be mailed on request.
When these are received the prospec-
tive borrowers should hold an organ
ization meeting and elect from their
members a board of five or more di-
rectors, and this board should elect a
loan committee of three, president,
vice president, and Secretary-treas-
urer, who is bonded officer The
secretary-treasurer may or may not
be a member of the association.
These prospective borrowers should
be ten or more in number and should
apply for loans amounting to $4,000
or more. These 10 or more farmers
should make application in writing to
the Federal land bank for loans to
the aggregate amount of $4,000
and for charter to do business.
They must sign and acknowledge ar
ticles of association and forward
them to the Federal land bank. The
Federal land bank will then send its
appraiser to inspect the land offered
as security for the loans applied for,
and, if satisfactory, the loans will be
authorized when the charter is
granted to the association. The
bank then advances the money
through the secretary-treasurer Of
the local association. In the applica-
ton signed by borrowers each must
indicate how much money he desires
and must list the value of the land
to be mortgaged as security.
@. Then, l am given to understand
that the most important unit of this
entire banking system is the local CO.
operative association, organized by
10 or more farmers?
A. Yes it is the door through which
the farmer borrower enters into the
benefits of the system. 1t is the CO.
operative agency which gives the ma
chinery for borrowing and investing
for voting, and for protection
against loss. 1t is the foundation
stone of the whole system.
@. Then, to get the full benefit of
this system, it is to the interest of
the farmers to organize into these
groups as quickly as possible?
A. Yes, they should organize at
once, so they will be ready to get

COfeeyille Well.

A contract has been made with the
Step Sawmill people to cut and saw
the timbers to be used for the der
rick of the Coffeeville oil well. 1t is
the intention of the company to start
work at once on the well and push
the work rapidly. While the COM
pany has not given out the exact To-
cation of the well, it is generally un-
derstood that it will be located some
8 or 10 miles east of Coffeevile.

FROM MISSISSIPPI

Drilling For Oil In Oktibeha County.
The Cambridge Oil and Gas Com
rany, with headquarters at SOL w.
7. Wagner Building, Fort Worth,
Texas, will start drilling operations in
Oktibeha County, Mississippi, some
time within the next ninety days of
what is considered by their geologist
the best structure in this part of Mis-
sissippi.
w. j. Kelly, who is general mana
ger of the company, has been in West
Point since last July and has been
working on this project since last
September. He states that they are
now ready to go, and promises real
activity on the part of the company
within the next sixty days. Offices
will be opened here at once, and the
location be given out in the next few
days.
This will be the first test in the
Selma Chalk formation, and it is a
fact worth mentioning that the oil
sand encountered in the well near Wi
mona at $500 feet will be found in Ok
tibeha county at approximately 140O
feet. There are, in all, three sands
this side of 5000 feet. What is con-
sidered the best chance for oil will
be found at approximately $500 feet
but the company is prepared to 60
deeper if necessary.
Mr.. Kelly states that the drilling
site will be located about ten miles
from Starkville.
The company will start with an
eighteen inch hole, which will make
it possible to go 1000 feet.-Stark-
vile NSWS.

The Winona Well.

The Preston Oil & Gas Co. are still
working on their well at Winona. A
string of standard tools were substi-
tuted for the rotary rig when water
was struck, and an attempt was made
to drill before the arrival of the cas-
ing. However the water flow is too
strong and work has been suspended
awaiting the arrival of casing.

Okolona School Grounds Leased.

The school grounds of the Okolona
Colored Industrial School has been
leased by the Pioneer Oil Company.
The school grounds comprise $50
acres and are located one mile west
of Okolona. 1t was from we'll $50
feet deep on this property that the
first oil was secured in Mississippi.
Considerable oil was taken from this
well, the fluid seeping in with the wa
ter. The oil made high test, and oil
men believe it to have come from a
pool in the near vicinity.

Rural Routes
Are Inspected
By Postmaster

For the purpose of expediting
the delivery OF mail on rural
routes and to see what can be done
to familitate service In this con-
nection, and also to view the num-
ber of mail boxes not conforming
to regulation, Postmaster August
Huckestein has completed his
semi-annual inspection.
Instructions from the office of
the postal department of Washing
ton, ID. c., state that II boxes are
not erected according to regula-
tion, service will be withdrawn
and 1t will be necessary In that
case for the individual to call at
the post office for his mail.
All boxes should be erected on
the right hand side of the road
regularly Travelled by the rural
carrier nd In such position as to-
easily and safely accessible for the
delivery and collection OF mail
without the carrier leaving his
conveyance. Because Of traffic
conditions, to travel from side to
side OF the road would endanger
the life Of the carrier and the safe
ty OF the mail and would be in
OF state and local ordi-
nances in respect to the use of
highways.
Names and numbers should also
be on boxes, for substitute car
rier might be necessary at any
time, nd not knowink the route
would be unable to render service.
Keeping the box in proper condi-
tion is lso the work of the farmer.
