Credit System
SeIf-Supporting
PLAN TO BE ADOPTED WILL NOT
COST TAXPAYERS A
PENNY.

State farm loan machinery to be
authorized by the Minnesota legisla-
ture after Amendment No. l (Rural
Credits) is adopted on November 7,
will be operated without cent of ex-
pense to taxpayers, according to j. +.
Reed, chairman Of the farmers COM
mittee that is urging favorable action
on the amendment.
while it would be presumptive, as
we'll as unwise, to contemplate the de-
tails of legislative action, there are
certain fundamental features that are
sure to be included, says Mr.. Reed.
Zone of the most important of these
is that taxpayers shall not pay cent
of expense incident to operating the
system. In loaning money to farm
ers, the interest rate charged will be
just enough higher than that paid on
bonds to take care of necessary over
head expense. One-half percent
should be sufficient.
"Another feature that surely will be
recognized is an amortization plan for
repayment; that is, payments will be
extended over long period-30 to
l35 years. Each installment will be
for the same amount, to be met an
nually or semi-annually. Of each
such payment a part will go to meet
mainder will apply on the principal.
The older the loan, therefore, the
greater will be the payment on prin-
cipal, so when the term expires, the
loan is paid automatically"

Champions Give
Baking Demonstration

Tuesday forenoon the Kato Bread
Making team, consisting Of three
young ladies of the Mankato High
school, gave a public demonstration
of the art of bread making at the
First National Bank corner at Sleepy
Eye. These young ladies are on a
courtesy of the Hubbard Milling Com
pany, Mankato, for the purpose of
stimulating interest in the old house
hold art of bread making.
The team was introduced by Mr..
John D. Dietz, of Mankato, who is
well known to Sleepy Eye people,
and then the young ladies gave very
clever demonstration. Their work
was accompanied by an interesting
talk on the subject and was thorough
ly enjoyed and we'll received by the
crowd which witnessed it.
These young ladies, Misses Leona
Peterson, Myra Jones and Evelyn
Cuddy, are the honor champions
among the Home Economics and Bu-
reau of Husbandry teams of the high
schools of the United States. Upon
September l they will go to Winnipeg,
Canada, to enter a contest with a SIM
liar team representing the Dominion
At this time the governor general
will extend them entertainment.
They have gradually fought their
way to the top by winning in success
sion the championship of Blue Earth
county, the championship of southern
Minnesota, grand championship of
Minnesota, and the grand championship
at the Interstate fair at Sioux City,
Iowa; the last named contest giving
them the honor championship award
for the United States.
Ihair demonstration was of the
short method of making bread, the
total time consumed in preparation
being four hours. They prepared a
one-pound loaf for the benefit of the
audience, using the following recipe:
One-half cup milk.
One-half cup water.
One-fourth cake compressed yeast.
Three cups Ardee flour.
Two teaspoons sugar.
One teaspoon salt.
One teaspoon fat.
Note-Mix hard at the beginning.
The Kato team uses the Hubbard
Milling Company "Ardee" flour in all
their work.

COAL FREIGHT PRIORITY
WILL END DECEMBER Il.
Direct Route Rule to Continue, But
0pen-Top Car Regulation to
Be Withdrawn.

The Interstate Commerce Commission
gave notice yesterday that beginning at
midnight December II virtually all OF
the service orders now outstanding
which have given priority to the move
ment of coal since the strike would be
cancelled. The only restriction after
that time will be the requirement that
all shipments must be forwarded by
the most direct of routes available and
without regard to the normal traffic ar
.rangements between railroads.
Since the service orders were put into
effect early in the fall several modifica-
tions have been made in them by the
commission, but in the territory east of
the Mississippi have been. and until
December II still will be. required to
use nearly all the open-top car equip
ment in their possession exclusively for
the transport of coal. This restriction
has been an increasing cause Of COM
plaint from steel producers and contrac-
tors using building and road material.
The open-top car regulation Will be
withdrawn entirely after December IL.
except in Il few territories where in
dividual railroads have been specifically
required To furnish certain coal cars
to specific mines for loading shipments
to communities or purchasers who have
a particular need for coal.

FIGURE ON HUMAN

daily income runs into six figures,
stated that all this money was Incl

"The trouble with most business
