18th article Of a series Of financial questions published by
THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK

What Percentage of the loans of the Federal Reserve
Bank are to the Agricultural and Live Stock Inter-
eSts?
A S OF December 10th, slightly more than 50 per
~ cent of the total outstanding loans of the Fed
eral Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, or nearly
$0o,oooooo, were extensions of credit to agricultural
and live stock interests in the Ninth Federal Reserve
District Of either a direct or indirect character. AT
any date in the year, an analysis would show practi-
caly the same Droportionate assistance to these in
tereSts. They dominate. Theirs are the largest Dor
rowings from member banks, and it is natural that
the proportion of such paper held by the Federal Re
serve Bank at any time, would be larger than any
other kinds.
How Much Money Has the Federal Reserve Bank
Loaned to Grain Gamblers?
The Federal Reserve Act prohibits a Federal
Reserve Bank from loaning to any individual, firm or
corporation, TIE Federal Reserve Bank has no pow
err to make direct loans to any person or to any bust

LONDON, May 13.-Signor Marconi,
inventor Of wireless, pins his faith to
transatlantic telephone communica-
ton by wireless instead of by cable,
dspite the recent successful expert
ments in America connecting Cuba
with the mainland in telephone cir
cult extending 5000 miles.

only satisfactory method of telephon-
ing across the Atlantic is by wireless
At present We can only do short dis
lance by cable telephone-from Lon

now. In attempts to communicate
with Spain we have failed. Up to
100 or 2oe miles of cable it works.
With 1000 miles or more of cable it
won't work.
Wireless telephony, of course, has
not yet been developed to the same
extent as the wire telephone, but it is
being rapidly improved. We have not
done anything like 5000 miles thus
far. We have spoken successfully
from London to Rome, and We have
got words through to America, but not

EIsh TeIephone whereabouts.

Fish, when they swim, make a noise,
and this can be detected by the tele-
phone, according to the Scientific
American, which says:
Most Of US have watched with in
terest the movements of shoals of fish
beneath the surface Of the sea or Of
a lake, but few will have associated
with those movements the idea Of
noise. Nevertheless, such movements
do make q noise, and Norwegian fish
ermen, it Is said, have taken advan-
tage Of that fact to devise an arrange
ment to assist them in detecting and
locating fish at considerable depths.
They lower a .microphone by means
of wire from their boat into the
water, the other end Of the wire being
connected with a telephone receiver
on the boat. AS the latter slowly pro-
ceeds on her course In search Of a
haul, an operator keeps the receiver
Of the telephone to his ear and he can
tell instantly when a shoal Of fish is
being approached.

FROM THE LAND OF WONDERS
Shasta County, California, Comes
Proudly TO the Front With
Eggs That Dance.

Shasta county, California, is the
land of wonders. The latest Is the
dancing egg, relates London Tit-Bits.
It Is laid by an as yet undetermined
insect on the leaves of oak trees.
Masses Of these eggs cling to the
under side Of the leaf, and as they
advance toward maturity they dnlp
to the ground and dance about.
BY holding an oak twig containing
any number Of eggs to ones ear a
cracking sound may be heard, like the
splitting Of electric sparks. The shell
contains a tiny grub, working for rG-
lease.
In many towns collections of the
eggs are on exhibition. When laid
on a table these eggs bound about
and spring into the air, sometimes to
a height Of 16 inches. They are par
