AID BILL
HITS SNAG ON
MORTGAGES

A clash in the Senate over re
financing farm mortgages today
delayed q final vote on the Ad'
ministration's emergency farm re
lief bill, with it's provisions fol
increasing farm prices by $1,000,
100000 a year.
With only this major contro
versy remaining. Senate leaders
!. were confident the bill would be
approved tonight.
} Favored On Both Sides
The farm mortgage refinancing
! plan sponsored by the Administers
ton found wide favor on both
sides Of the aisle. 1t would au-
thorize the issuance Of 4 per cent
bonds, up to 100000 900, for
the refinancing Of first mortgages
>, on farm property.
The money would be loaned to
farmers at Az per cent interest,
principal payments could be de-
. ferred five years.
In addition a 100000, 900 Re
construction Finance Corporation
fund would be provided to help
liquidate the joint stock land
banks over 10-year period.
A 5000, ,O00,00 fund would be
made available for direct loans
to farmers in regions where ma
tional farm loan associations
have not been formed.
\, Frazier Plan Attracts
A substitute farm mortgage
\ bill offered by Senator Frazier
(R.) of North Dakota, attracted
q number Of Senators on account
Of its provisions for initiation,
coupled with an interest rate Of
112 per cent on land mortgages
and 3 per cent on chattel mort
cages.
Frazier proposed that the Gov
}. .ernment lend up to the full fair
value" Of farm lands and half
!. the value of improvement, scaling
down any existing mortgage in
excess Of present worth. His
substitute would authorize an
unlimited amount Of farm loan
bonds.
The Federal Reserve System
would be required to issue Fed
erale Reserve notes against any
Of these bonds not readily sale
able in the open market. Through
this means, a tremendous infla-
ton Of the currency would be
made possible.
Senator Robinson, the Demo
cratic Floor leader, charged
enemies Of the bill were voting
for amendments in order to make
the measure ridiculous"
, The Senate voted down an
amendment by Senator Wheeler
(D.l Of Montana, to include flax
as a basic commodity in the bill.
! The vote was 80 to 48. Then
Robinson moved to reconsider the
vote and to lay that motion on
the table, the latter motion was
adopted, thus permanently ex-
cluding flax from the bill.

Four-Footed Servitors
, Still Valued on Farm

More than 100000 American
horses and mules still hold their Jobs
on farms, and Wayne Dinsmore fore
sees the return Of these animals to
first place in the esteem Of good
farmers, since @men who stick to
horses and mules, planning their
work wisely, raise just as much crop
at much less cost"
Writing in Horse, Mr.. Dinsmore
observed, "As matter of fact, the
horse and mule, as a chief source of
power, never left the farm. Some
decrease occurred, it is true, but
much less, so far as work animals
actually In use are concerned, than
is generally supposed.
"In 1919 we had about 1900, 900
head of horses and mules at work in
harness or under saddle on farms ;
in 1892 about 15.50O,0OO were so EN-.
ployed. This is decrease Of about
100000 at work, due to an increase
Of tractors from 246,OS3 in 1920 to
92O.21O in 1880, and of motor trucks
from 1891 in 1920 to 900,3S5 in
193O."-Literary Digest. Il

HAD BOOK AGENT
STUMPED AS TO
AUTHOR OF BIBLE

Vice President Garner, while still
struggling lawyer in Texas, was
sitting one day in his little office,
pretending to be busy, when genial
book agent came in and undertook
to sell him a new edition of the
Bible-"red-letter edition, bound in
full morocco, with notes and refer
ences," etc. Before the agent had
got through with his stereotyped
spiel about the merits of the volume,
Garner interrupted him to ask, with a
perfectly straight face: "Who's the
author?" $780,,
"W-h-y, this is the Bible" the agent
tried to explain. He was very much
taken aback, as he had learned his
piece by rote and he had to 60 back
to the beginning and start all over
If anybody interrupted him.
The agent began again but had
only got well steamed up when Gar
ner, in a perfectly sober voice, again
broke in with the query: "Yes, ]
know it's the Bible, but / ask again
who wrote it,
Once more the poor agent ex-
planned that it was the Bible he was
offering and it was the new red-letter
edition, bound in full morocco, with
notes and references. Again Garner
put him aside with the question !:
"But I don't want to buy it unless
you will tell me who it's by"
Finally the agent became disguised.
He gathered up his samples and or
der blanks and retreated to the door.
Then, with one hand on the knob, all
ready to make quick getaway, he
turned round and shouted: "You pin
headed fool; it's the Bible and that's
all there is to it. If never made a
sale wouldn't sell copy to such an
idiot as you are."-Pathfinder Maya

LEARN FACTS AS
TO DEVELOPMENT
OF CHILD BRAIN

Having made an exhaustive study
Of the brains of children, two scien-
lists, DR.. T. Wingate Todd and DR..
Y. 7. Leo of Western Reserve uni
versity of Cleveland, have come to
the conclusion that the brain Of a
six-year-old child has attained both
adult size and adult mental capacity.
In some cases the brain achieves vir-
tually full development by the age of
four, although the body requires an
other sixteen years before it can be
called mature.
Doctor Todd and Doctor Leo also
found that all parts of the brain do
not develop simultaneously or uni
formly. For example, the scientists
noted:
"Parts of the cerebrum which gov
ern vision and hearing are developed
early, and the end of the first year
sees them practically at full growth.
'The area Of the brain where men,
cries are stored, the area devoted to
learning, takes on vigorous growth
soon after birth and shows its great
est changes by the age of two years.
"On the other hand, that part of
the brain utilized in attention and
concentration shows some develop
ment in the latter part of the first
year, but most vigorous progress be-
tween two and six years, a little later
than the learning area.
"The area devoted to speech is In
vigorous growth at about two years"
After the age of six brain develop
ment is very slow, the Cleveland
scientists found, although there is a
"submaximum" squirt at about the
age of ten, and a final developmental
period at about sixteen.
One interesting fact disclosed was
that q child who suffers prolonged
illness during those early years may
sustain retardation or even mutila-
ton of the development Of the brain.

Leopold said the land best suited

plot, If fenced off and ungrazed by
stock, will furnish food and cover for
quail and grouse which maintain
themselves with little help. he ex-
planned.
Once established, the game range
requires little effort to maintain, Leo
pold said. The birds will feed on
natural weeds and grasses in pref.
erence to the farmers seed crops, he
said. One of the best covers can be
provided by leaving brush piles on
the ground after cutting wood, and
planting wild grapevine at each pile.
The grapevine soon covers the brush
SO that it furnishes effective cover
for the birds, even when snow is
deep on the ground.

Doctors Give Creosote'
For Dangerous COUGHS

For many years our best doctors have
prescribed creosote in some form for
coughs, colds and bronchitis, knowing
how dangerous it is to let them hang on.
Creomulsion with creosote and six
other highly important medicinal ele-
ments, quickly and effectively stops all
coughs and colds that otherwise might
lead to serious trouble.
Creomulsion is powerful in the treat
ment of all colds and coughs, yet it is
absolutely harmless and is pleasant and
easy to take.
Your own druggist guarantees Greco
mulsion by refunding your money if you
are not relieved after taking Creomul-
sion as directed. Beware the cough or
cold that hangs on. Always keep Creo-
mulsion on hand for instant use. (ady)

Lucky Strike is wondering what

these days.
Last night the Strikers chalked
up y 648 in the National Capital
League against the leading Kings
Palace and lost by 80 pins. The
Palace men won two and regis
tered a 1915 set. Charlie Phillips
had a Alt and Dutch Newman
a 387. "Chief" Lovett's 391
topped the losers.
Ken Thorpe's 387 set and 155
game and Dutch" Weidman'S
381 set proved important contri-
buttons as Lucky Strike took two
games from Columbia in the Dis
trict Mems League.
George L. Isemann, N. D. B. C.
secretary, "debutted" in the Ma
tional Capital League with a 335
set, and B. and o. won its third
game of the season as the result
of it. Fountain Hams were the
opponents.
Other standout scores were !:
