FEDERAL LAND BANK
Wichita Bank Ready to Take Care Ut
Needs of Valley Farmers.

Director F. NJ. Wilson of the Wichi-
Ia Farm Loan Bank returned on Tues
day from 4 meeting of the directors
at the home office at which the needs
of the farmers in the flooded districts
of the valley We're specially consider
ed.
Those farmers whose lands and titles
are in satisfactory shape and who de-
sire money to replace crops or tide
them over the year on account of loss
of crops, can be taken care of through
this bank at low rate of interest. The
farmers along the upper valley are
taking advantage of this fact quite
freely. but many of our farmers are
unwilling 10 mortgage their farms for
such long period. However, the
members of the local association are
becoming active and loans aggregat-
ing nearly thirty thousand dollars have
been taken out in the past two weeks.
1t is estimated that the bank will be
willing to place nearly ten times that
amount on the irrigated lands of this
county.

LAMAR MAKES PRO-
POSAL TO COUNCIL.
Offer to Furnish Current at Low Rate
on Switch Board.

Mayor Wagner, Councilmen Jones
and Merwin and Supt. Howe of La
mar met with the city council We'd
nesday evening, for the purpose of
interesting the city officials in the pur-
chase of electricity from the new pow
er plant at Lamar
The necessity of repairing the pre-
sent plant has caused much discuss
Estimates have been secured on the
cost of repairing the present steam
plant now in use and the installation
Of necessary machinery. This esti-
mate will run close to SIS 100000. The
proposition made by the Lamar offie-
ials is one that while costing more at
first but would mean cheaper main
tainence for term of years. The
estimates furnished would indicate the
cost for the building of a transmission
line to Lamar TO be about $4,000.
However, the town of Holly would not
be compelled to bear the entire cost
as it is understood the American Beet
Sugar Co. the towns of Granada, Bris-
tol and Hartman are anxious to secure
current, and the probabilities are that
the expense to Holly would not amount
to more than the estimated cost of re-
pairing the present plant.
The buying of power from trans
mission line is the solution of all towns
where it has become necessary to re-
pair or install new plants. All the
valley towns west of La Junta buy
their power from 4 Transmission line
as well as do number Of towns in
Kansas.
The council are considering the mat
ter and will investigate the feasibility
Of the plan.-Holly Chieftain.

Senator Phipps Here.

Senator Lawrence c. Phipps and
his son, Lawrence C., Jr., were Lamar
visitors the first of the week. They
arrived here on Monday and drove over

Tuesday they left for La Junts ac-

amount of farm work which leaves lit
tie time for dairy work. The produc-
tion of number of the herds is con
siderably reduced because of the flood
which necessitated the moving OF the
herds to temporary quarters and made
the procuring of feed and marketing
Of milk difficult or impossible for
time.
A large percentage of the herds in
the association are bred for fall fresh
ening. For this reason many Of the
cows are nearing the end Of their lac
tation periods and the milk production
is much lower Two of the breeders
have discontinued feeding grain tenn
porarily because Of the difficulty in
procuring it. The high price, and the
lowered value Of the product Ex-
change Of dairy animals is very quiet,
very few, if any, animals being bought
or sold during the month.

STILL WINNING
No Team in League Seems Able to
Stop the Lamar Bunch.

The Lamar team played the Fort
Lyon sailors on the Cottage Place
grounds last Sunday and continued to
play the winning ball that has char
acterized them since they once got
'started. Gregg pitched his usual grade
of high class ball and was well sup
ported in the field as well as by the
bats of the slugging members of the
team. The sailors played fine ball in
the field hut could not connect with
the ball when hits meant runs. Each
pitcher struck out nine men but the
Lamar team made twelve hits and two
reached first on balls, and this ae-
counts for the score.
Holly defeated Las Animas at the
same time and kept within game of
the Lamar boys. The score was Holly
and Las Animas 4. Next Sunday
the teams play Lamar at Las Animas
and Fort Lyon at Holly. 1t is not an
nounced yet as to whether there will
be double headers but at both places
there is an extra game to be played
oft.
The box score is as follows:
