PERSONAL CREDIT FOR THE
FARMERS

The problem of developing the ag-
riculture of the country will not be
fully solved until better provision 10
made for financing young men who
have little money but are competent
to make a success of farming. Many
Of these lack the cash to buy a farm
on mortgage, and even if they could
do it, they could not raise the funds
to buy any tools or machinery. Yet
they understand farming, are willing
to work, and would be successful if
they could get their start.
1t would be a good proposition to
finance a lot of these fellows if the
funds are handled by local people,
who know the borrowers. The peo-
pie who handle the proposition need
to have some Of their own money in
it, 50 they will be vigilant and careful
in the oversight maintained over such
loans.
Thus to solve the credit problem of
agriculture, there needs to be not
merely farm mortgage system, but
widely extended plan for financing
men on personal credit. This seems
to call for a general organization on
what is known as the credit union
type. 1t should pay good interest,
since the man who has little security
to offer. must expect to pay higher

COMMUNITY BREEDING
OF FARM ANIMALS

The United States is an individual
istic country. On the whole this spir-
it has greatly promoted enterprise.
Still in some fields, notably in agri-
culture, there has been failure to
achieve results possible by united ef-
fort. This is especially tire in such
a matter as the breeding o. fine cat
tie and other stock. The tendency is
for each stock raiser to pick the
breed Of cattle, swine or sheep which
he prefers, regardless Of what his
neighbors are doing. As result,
comparatively few communities have
q reputation for breeding any parti-
sular kind of animal.
When q community fixes upon one
breed Of animal, and raises that, it
greatly profits by specializing on that
enc line. The opportunity Of the
buyer is 50 much better where one
breed prevails. that he seeks that
community over others.
The result of specializing on one
breed is that the small breeder gets
recognition where otherwise
he would be completely overlooked.
While buyers are visiting town they
will look over his stock, but they
would never come just to see his lit
tie herd.
Localities that specializes on one
thing get a world wide reputation.
So famous did the state of Vermont
become as centel for Merino sheep,

vITUPERATION IN POLITICS

Politics has generally been regard
ed as a rather dirty game. A good
many people who shrink from dis
agreeable things say they hate to soil
their hands in it. As q result the
community misses the service Of lot
of men who would give splendid capa-
city to public problems. Perhaps po-
litical life is not so communicating as
they think. They may overestimate
the difficulties that = man with q
clean record meets in entering on q
political cereer.
Any candidate has to anticipate a
rather careful inspection of his rec
ord on going in for public office. But
there is not so much tendency to
throw mud rs there used to be. 1t is
realized that radical attacks often dis
gust the people, and frequently arouse
sympathy for the man who is sub
jected to them.
People who wish to assail candi-
dates character do not usually come
out in public the way they used to.
But frequently they will pass around
evil insinuations in private conversa-
tion. But the public have learned to
be suspicious of statements that peo-
pie will not make in an open manner.
Other things being equal, those who
conduct political campaigns in calm
and courteous way, who assume that
their opponents are likely at least to
be honest, and who merely try to re-
fute their views, stand better with the
voters. AS public education advan-
ces, the people get sick of slashing
