EMERGENCY CROP LOANS
ARE NOW AVAILABLE

The Farm Credit Administration
has just notified County Agricultur-
al Agent e. r. Snyder that the
emergency crop loans are now avail
able to those farmers who can quail
ify for them. The county agent now
has the necessary application blanks
in his office at Georgetown and Is
ready to help farmers who want to
apply for the loan.
This loan is for buying seed, fer
tilizer. feed, busting and spraying
material, fuel and oil for crop pro-
duction, and feed for work stock,
and the maximum amount is limited
to $4,000 to each borrower, with in
terest at 51s95. AS in previous years
the goyernment asks a first lien on
the 1885 crops as security for the
loan. Another provision of this
years loan is that the applicant
agrees not to materially increase
the production Of any Of the basic
commodities on his farm; such as
corn, hogs and wheat in this sec
tiOn.
In filling the application, It is nee
egsary to know the acreages of var
ious crops grown on the farm tn
1888 and 1884, the number and val
ue of the farm implements such as
plows, haIrOws, drills, tractors,
trucks, binders, wagons, etc. also
the number and values Of the horses,
mules, COWS, other cattle, sheep,
hogs and poultry. The amount Of
seed, feed and hay on hand is also
needed in filling the application. All
of this information Is demanded and
It is well If the applicant makes a
list Of this before applying. The
county agent has found that when a
farmer Is asked for such infOrma-
tion, it is rather a hard job for him
to think OF all his equipment. etc,
especially without previous thought.
Again, IL farmer has a. list Of his
equipment, and the livestock, 1t will
save a great deal Of time in filling
the application.
Just when these applications will
close is not known, so II you need
some money for crop production in
1895, it Is best to see your county
agricultural agent at the post ofice
building in Georgetown as soon as
possible.

Produce shipments decreased near
" 10 percent after the middle OF
March and 20 percent compared
with year ago. Movement OF south
erntruck crops was not gaining fast

bage and onions are cleaning up.
Old carrot; and sweet potatoes are
i'm moderate supply. Most southern
vegetables are moving rather light
ly. Tomatoes are increasing fast
but are coming in only half the vol
ume Of last season. StrawOerrles
are> likely to continue in light sup
ply and irregu ar quality until the
Louisiana crop becomes active IN
April. Southwestern produce is
about the On,y line coming in fuli
volume, especially lettuce and orah-
ges. Western asparagus movement
still lags. Apple shipments are not
far from the volume of last season
but the proportion Of western frult
continues greater.
Price trend is mixed, being high
for cabbage, mostly firm for lettuce,
spinach, peas, snap beans, ana
strawberries. but sagglng q liltle
near the eud of the month. POla-
toes, onions, tomatoes, celery, ap-
pies, and oranges were fairly steady
with a weaker tone. Most produce Is
Sc ling higher than in early April
last year. Onions, lettuce, caull-
flower, and spinach are twice as high
eabbage thuae times, sweet pOta-
toes, snap beans, and the basket
pack OF apples sell at about the
same general level as last season at
this time.
Potato Market Dull
Prices of potatoes In bulk are very
low throughout the country, ranging
10 to Is cents a bushel frDm Maine
TO Michigan and Wisconsin. These
are mostly the lowest prices Of the
season and also lowest IN receut
years. Stocks ON hand In the East
and North Central region are prob
ab,y still rather heavy for the time
of year. Prices in these sections
showed little change during the last
week of March. The only strong
feature was a rising. tendency in
the Rocky Mountain and Pacific
Northwest region, where supplies
are light. Southern potatoes sold
at firm prices, owing to light pro-
ductfOn from the earliest planting.
Florida stock has been selling |
around 81 a bushel in northern mar
kets, which is about the same as the |
prices a year ago. A price Of Si.5O

calling for q rehearsal, then secretly
starting the camera. Many of his
scenes are thus filmed without the
players knowing it. Sometimes it
doesn't work. He was filming Mady
Christians that way in q song, and
the actress, thinking it a rehearsal,
took the liberty to sneeze. But as a
rule, Leonard believes the method Is
a cure for camera shyness.
W. 8. Van Dyke, who directed
Naughty Marietta" uses the army
problem method. At night he lays
out the next days work and knows
exactly what he is to do, even to the
smallest camera set-up. The knowl-
edge and confidence he is thus able
to display on the set have an instant
effect on his players. They do diff
cult scenes with ease because the idea
that the scenes were difficult had
never been suggested to them.
Charles F. Riesner, comedy director,
explains his method" this way:
81 go on the set and worry so hard
that all the players are sorry for me
and Jump In and do great scenes TO
keep me from going nutty with
anxiety"
