Short-horn cattle. in which the
prince takes such great pride, are old
experiments aH over this country, and
even the vast herds OF Shropshire
sheep are not novelties either In
Canada or in this country. But the
presence of the prince taking a per-
sonal survey of his prairie kingdom
makes the episode of great impor-
tance, and despite all the care shown
by the Canadian authorities, IL is
doubtful If the bonny young prince
will be able to keep as quiet and un-
disturbed as he anticipates.
Though the e. P. ranch embraces
almost 5000 acres and but one--not
too large--log hut, 1T always has been
considered a sportsman's paradise and
free to all who cared to shoot or cast
a line. The grazing land, which
stretches back for miles on each side
of trout-stocked lakes, has rich
growth of grass in which every sort
of small game Is found, while beyond
the log cabin and the stables and
granafies are the Rockies in their
most majestic aspect, where bear.

Though there is not the slightest
probability of the Prince of Wales
accepting any social attention In
Canada. still less in this country, his
presence at his ranch twenty-five
miles west OF High river on the Cal
gary Mcleod branch of the Canadian
Pacific, cannot fail to excite atren-
tion and perhaps to attract visitors
TO this distant spot. This tract for
merly was called Beddington Run
and as such was kept in fine state
of improvement by the owner, Mr..
George Lane, who still retains a part
of the original area under the name
3S--U ranch. The prince, it is well
known, reehristened his property the
f.. p ranch, which, It is surrnised,
stands for Edward Prince, though
this assumption has never been. au-
thorized by its owner. However, the
heir to the British throne directs all
stock intended for it to the e. p.
ranch, and so it has become famous
in the Calgary district. Every farmer

Farm Credits Act
Benefits Producer
Designed to Give Farmer the Sort of
Credit He Needs-Should Re
duee Interest Rates.

IN the last day it was in session,
congress enacted the Agricultural
Credits Act. This act is designed to
give the farmer the sort of credit he
needs to produce efficiently and mar
ket in an orderly way the products of
the farm, says Secretary of Agricul-
ture Henry G.. Wallace. 1t is an effort
by congress to meet a need which has
been felt for at least fifty years. The
act may not be perfect. Quite posi-
bly, experience win show the need of
amendments from time to tine. But
it furnishes the basis for a system of
intermediate credit adapted to farm
conditions and farm needs. Also it
should bring about a reduction in the
interest which farmers must pay for
money borrowed.
The act is divided into two parts,
In the first, it provides government
agencies for handling agricultural
loans. In the second it authorizes the
organization of private agencies under
government supervision for making
loans on live stock security and on
farm commodities on the way to mar
ket.
The government loan activities will
be carried OF in connection with the
Federal land banks. At the present
time the country is divided into twelve
districts, and in each of these districts
there is a Federal land bank which
makes land mortgage loans, these
twelve banks being directed by a cen
trail federal farm oar bureau in
Washington. In connection with each
of these land banks there is TO be es-
tablished an intermediate credit bank,
located in the same city with the land
bank n under the supervision of the
officers and directors of the land bank.
The federal government supplies each
Of these intermediate credit banks
with n capital of not to exceed $1,000
900. These intermediate credit banks
are authorized to discount farmers
notes which have been taken by banks
and other financial Institutions, and
then can carry such notes for "A term
of from six months to three years.
The banks may also loan direct to
farmers cooperative associations UNI
der conditions set forth in the act.
No doubt some time will be required
to get this machinery in smooth work
ing order. 1t will be just like building
