over the whole year?
Government: When your 10
bales are graded. you will get 10
certificates. Our unit is 1 bale OF
cotton. When we have wheat the
unit is 100 bushels. Hence, you
can come to the warehouse, hand
in the money we"loaned you on 1t
and remove the cotton. Or you
can sell your certificate on the ex-
change, or to anybody, and the pur-,
chaser will bring it to us together
with the money loaned and we will
deliver the cotton tc him.
Farmer: Do have to sign my
name to anything?
"Government: No, we do not
require names; we only loan on cot
ton in our possession, graded and
appraised by us.
<tFarmer: But suppose I sold a
bale and had spent all the money
received from the loan, how could
I get the bale out?
stGoyernment: You could not.
After you got the loan you have
parted with some Of the value OF
the bale. Your certificate repre-
sents the value left in the bale. You
can sell the certificate on the Ex-
chane or to Bankers, subject to
mortgage.
Farmer: But suppose /
thought the price too low, and
wanted to hold for higher price:
how would I do it?
"Government: Well; we have
loaned you one-half the money on
your whole crop. That removes
your immediate wants and we give
you a whole year to market and
sell the balance, but we will nok
permit you to-, hold the whole OF;
your Cotton and sell it at any: time
in one lot. This, would open the
d doors, to outside speculation and
would also: confuse your customers.
You must know that we have other
farmers to- look after, and all the

'ttGoyernment: You can do that

are not satisfied with the price, We
give you fair chance to hold and

The Church at Work, published by the National Council of the Episcopal church, tells Of u resourceful native or gauist who was called upon suddenly to furnish the music for a mission wedding ceremony at Hankow, China. The bridrgroOm had recently become Christian. Following the custom, he sent a beautiful sedan chair and R brass band to escort the bride to hIs home. where the ceremony was to be performed. Something delayed the bride, and the impatient young man hurried down to the mission house where 1t was decided to have the wedding on the spot. A meeting was in progress in the church, so 1t was impossible to have the brass band play. Whereupon one Elsie u was communicated to play the wedding march. There was no sheet music on hand, and Elsie was not equal to the tnsk of playing MendelssOhD from memory.
