After long days work In the hot
sun It is quite q treat for the farmer
and his help to be able to come home
and take refreshing bath In a mod.
ern bathroom and spend restful eve
ming reading or In some other recrea-
tion In pleasant rooms well lighted
and furnished. Modern equipment has
helped the farm wife immeasurably in
performing her tasks. and has made
possible her entrance into social &C
tivitIes.
Comfort in the farm home is essen
tial. The old idea Of AL work and
no play" is no longer held by progress
sive farmers, for they have found by
actual experience that happy, content
ed homes Increase the efficiency and
earning power Of the farm.

BOYS

Roosevelt said If you want to do
anything for man you must com
mcncc on him before he is man. SO
realizing that the boy Of todny is the
man of tomorrow. men are out In
search of the secrets Of boydom and
many men ARE giving their lives to the
study of the aucl ions that go with boy
life. Some have tried to tell us what
II boy Is worth to society. Having
given us various estimates as to The
cost of feeding and clothing a lad.
they say now this is what he costs.
what Is he worth There is no man
who can tell whae boy Is worth We
can measure various commodities by
various standards: We measure wheat
by the b,ishcl. silk by the yard, sugar
by the pound But we have no mea-
sure by which we can reckon the value
Of boy. Booker r. Washington went

freeman he organized an institution

come of more Than half n million dol
lars. and through his work hundreds OF
young men and women OF his race have
been lifcd out Of ignorance and trained
for service We study everything else
except the boy. Quite often we find the
family well supplied with the journal
hat tells Of the mysteries OF business;
the farmer takes the Farm Journal,
the chicken fnncicr thr POULTRY Jour
mi but all to many families never give
II serious thought. Mother may have
n receipt for making cake and never
study thc mysteries Of boy life. So far
rs ! can find no educational system
makes the slightest systematic pro-
vision for training for any phase OF
duties Of parcnthood.
These boys of ours are worth much.
Real boy training is mn educational
process \ should progress along GER
tain well defined lines to he sound and
sufficient. When once we begin to see
what these educational! processes are
we will begin to see why boys hobbies
are worth while. and why team games
and groups appeal % him. We talk OF
the fascination that comes to us as we
watch n bed of roses grow. but what
about the fascination Of watching
boy grow and develop Into n man Of
character. II may be worth while for
MS men TO look after our own social

commission and the study devoted to this question
by economists. fnancierS, and to a considerable extent
business men and farmers, the Federal Reserve Act
was evolved. The purpose was to provide a method
of co-ordinating the banking activities of the country.
1t was intended to create a cooperative relationship
between banks, mobilize legal reserves in a common
reservoir where they could be drawn upon in times OF
stress or seasonal strain, establish a method by which
banks redisco,1nt their eligible paper and thus replen-
ish their reserves, and provide an elastic currency.
These were the more important objects sought. The
Federal Reserve System was intended to provide its
member banks with a place to go in times of sudden
emergency or seasonal demand, such as that occurring
at crop planting or crop harvesting time, and discount
the paper of their customers thereby building up their

reserves and temporarily augmenting their loaning
power. In the discussions during many years leading
to adoption of the Federal Reserve Act there was no
thought or purpose of creating great loan banks to
operate continuously throughout the year. The
thought was to create reserve banks that would be re-
serve banks IN fact as well as in name, and which
would employ their loaning power for short periods
in time of stress or seasonal demand only, and which
would supplement the loaning power of member
banks during such periods of stress. In the absence
of stress Or seasonal demand it was the intention that
the funds of the reserve banks should be held available
and actually in reserve where they would represent a
protection and safeguard to all banks and to all class
es of the people, and where they would be available
again on demand.
The Miller press. [volume] (Miller, S.D.) 190?-current, 1921-04-28

vOR MANY years prior to the signing OF the FED
eral Reserve Act in 1913 there was criticism OF
the banking system of this country because it
did not prevent currency panics, because IT
made no provision for the protection of the $4,000 IN
dependent banks in periods of stress, and because OF
the defective and inelastic currency system which
then existed. This criticism was intensified by the
panic of 1903, and the panic of 1907 resulted in the APP
pointment by Congress of the National Monetary
Commission to study the banking systems of the
world and recommend such reconstruction of the bank
ing system of the United States as would make it in
point of efficiency, serviceability to the people, and
protection to the public, the equivalent of the banking
systems of England. Frace, Germany and other ma
tions Of the old world. Out Of the activities of this
