Killer to my neighhors."
Simply mix the virus with bread or
meat scraps and place where rats,
mice or gophers can get it. In few
hours after rat has eaten the virus
he gets terrible fever and leaves the
buildings to get the fresh air of the
open fields. Rats and mice thus af-
fected- always die far from buildings
and leave no bad odor. It is a scien-
tific fact that one rat affects others,
and soon whole colonies are wiped out
at time.
So confident is DR.. Alexander that this
wonderful Rat-Killer Virus will kill every rat,
mouse and gopher your farm in one weeks

may be imprisoned at hard labor
without having first been indicted

SMALL CREDIT RELIEF s
FROM CROP MOVEMENT
Aid from War Finance Corporation Will Be
Needed in Many Agricultural Regions.
tsy The w..nl.sse. Her.ls see.eml.t.,.

A
TO farmer. 20 merchant and on azd
actually rsiieves obligations many
times the fsce Of the original loan.
Many farmers were disappointed
that the amendment Of the law did
not provide for loans direct to pro-
dncers. The operation Of the cor
poration In making loans might
have been delayed much longer had
this system been adopted because
OF the dificulty of setting up a
local representative OF the eorpo-
ration TO judge the value Of the Sc
eurity offered. Mr.. Meyer. chair
man OF the corporation. says that It
has been able TO get into action
much quicker due to the fact that
IL is operating through banks and
other financial institutions. BY the
organisation OF the new loan com
panies by, groups Of bankers and
business men advances have been
made possible in q relatively short
time.
While the FIRST loans made, prin-
cipally for exporting. were rsla-
lively large amounting to the hun
dreds Of thousands Of dollars. the
more recent loans average much
smaller. from $4,000 TO $780,
each. In fact each succeeding an
nouncement contains some smaller
item. ranging as low as $4,000. This
indicates that the funds are being
distributed more widely and reach
ing nearer 20 the actual farmer
than heretofore
The Importance Of this wide dis
trfbution can hardly be over-esti-
mated. The problem as a whole Is
not to place large sums in a few
institutions but rather 10 give re-
lief in widely scattered places
where the need is extreme and the
situation threatening TO develop
widespread failures This form Of
financing is much more important
than the granting OF large loans
to associations Of producers though
the Importance Of the latter should
not be deprecated. Even in the
most prosperous agricultural re-
gions there will be an increased
percentage OF failures this year in
spite Of all that can be done.
II is probable that the demands
upon the war-hnance corporation
will increase as the season pro-
crosses due to the continued de-
preston in farm prices. The analy-
sis Of loans published last month
by the Federal Reserve Board
showed that the reductions of loans
in agricultural counties were al a
much lower rate than in nonagrI-
cultural counties. In other words. a
large volume of loans in agricUlt-
ural districts must be carried
through in some form to another
season. The War Finance Corpora
tion has been remodeled 20 perform
this service and IL will be TO the
great economic advantage of the en-
tire country II IL can be fully uti-
lized to this end

The tense credit situation In aEri-
cultural districts Is gradually be-
ing relieved by the marketing OF
new crops. The so-called frozen
credit which represented the carry
ing Of surplus crops from the pre-
ceding season has gradually moveo
toward liquidation. This has hao
the effect of reducing the discounts
at the Federal Reserve Bank.
Even as early as August re-
duction in agricultural paper from
$46,O0O.0 900 to $780, 900 was noted
in one month. In live stock paper
during the same period the reduc-
tion was from s17.50o.oeo TO tls,-
100000. Since August this move
ment has continued. but we wiz
not know the extent until we have
later reports on re-discopnth from
the Federal Reserve Board.
Since August "a the War Finance
Corporation has been oreanizing itt
relief work for agriculture ana
crop export. The corporation nrst
found IL necessary to set up some
new machinery In order to reach
farmers with loans through state
committees and by contact with va
rious banking institutions to ac-
quaint people with the scope and
Limitations OF the law.
This campaign has just gotten
into active operation with the re-
suit that more advances have been
made within the last two weeks
than at any time since the law was
amended In August. These ad-
vances range from q few thousand
dollars for specific cases up to the
s15.ooO.0oO credit made for the
grain growers' organization Of the
Northwest.
The loans granted within the last
few days show more advances for
central States. including Iowa. the
Dakotas. Minnesota and elsewhere
in the same general region than
heretofore. Previous to the amend
ment OF the war finance act most
81 the advances were made for the
exporing Of cotton and q relatively
small amount of money had gone
into the Middle West. Following
the revision OF the law the Far
West and the South promptly or
eanizei and q feeling developed
that the Middle West was not to
be benefited as expected.
II Is well known that the credit
Ing condition has been especially
severe in Iowa and in the North
west where several bad seasons
have followed each other. The cor
poration is now functioning through
Its State committees in these re-
gions and a considerable volume Of
loans should be made shortly. This
relief. which to date amounts TO
about s23.ooo.oco. appears relatively
small along side the LARGE amount
of agricultural credit tied up in
the country. II must be remem-
bered. however. that an advance is
multiplied in influence by being
passed around the circle from bank
