PRODUCTION CREDIT
NOW MAKING LOANS
Applications Being Taken
From Farmers; Stock
holders Meet Thursday
BY w. b. GOODING,
Sec.-TreaS., of the Henderson
Production Credit Assn.

over a hundred applications for
crop production loans, totaling more
than S3OO,0O0.00, have been made by
Granville, Vance and Warren county
farmers to date to the Henderson Pro
duction Credit Association for the
year 1885.
Although most farmers made money
last year and are now in much bet
ter shapef financially, the payment of
old debts has left many without ade-
quate funds for their farming opera
tions in 1885. 1t is the purpose and
aims of the Henderson Production
Credit Association to furnish such
farmers the cheapest possible credit
for the purchase of fertilizer and sup
plies, as well as other items actually
needed in producing their crops.
Farmers are putting in their appli-
cations early this season so that they
may be approved, but this does not
mean that they will get their money
Immediately upon approval. When
a farmer puts in his application he is
required to state at what time and
for what the money is to be used This
allows the Association to disburse the
loans at the time they are actually
needed.
1t is hoped that all stockholders
and other farmers, located in Gran
vile, Vance and Warren Counties,
who are interested in cheap produc-
ton credit, will be present at the
annual stockholders meeting to be

had said She didn't have to get
Bet out of all her messes; the minor
ones might take care of themselves.
Besides, she had to discuss this
money business with Addison.
Il must talk to you about Aunt
Mnnie's money. Addison. / think
you ought to know. if you don't al
ready, that you took every cent of
income she had. All there is left is
this house. which costs hideous
amount for taxes and upkeep and
can't be sold in this market any
way"
For the first time Leila nearly ap-
proved of Addison. He sat down
hastily; his face actually paled. and
he looked shocked.
But she gave it TO us as if it was
nothing at all to heri" he said.
'She gave it to you because she
loved Bet and has no IDEA Of the
value of money" Leila said uncom-
promisingly. Because she thinks
you are marrying her. And you
took it. You took it from an old
lady who was kind to you and well
coined you in her house without Gre
dentials-an old lady who has sup
ported Bet ever since she was four. .
Il was doing everything / could
to adjust to her ideas. L have been

pleaded. "I-Ill see what L can do

you're going TO make Sternberg and
Holden give back the money for the

estate agent in the Fernwoods has
been trying to get rid of ever since
old Church died? But you can take
a chance of course. If you've given
her the cash and signed preliminary
deeds l think it's hopeless"
"What-what would you advise
my doing?" said Addison meekly.
"To begin with. talk it over with
Mrs. Johnston-H Hedges" said Leila in
duty bound. "She has influence al
over the Fernwoods though al
present your pet Fernwood Gardens

the window. Addison ran to it, in
time to see Leila'S sedan taking the
corner of the drive at dangerous
curve. The shoes. in their wrapping
paper, lay no longer on the dining
table. Bet was taking the shoes to
Gaetano's little shop between the
grocery and the stationer's in the
village. She was showing Addison.

Addison. Leila did not deny htm
this time. There was a certain

fact that Addison. too. had had TO

"I4e is an Italian peasant with a

said Leila, the more sharply that she
was worried herself.
'"Co a right-minded person there

forlorn stubbornness.

How Calotabs Help Nature

Millions have found in Calotabs a
most valuable aid in the treatment

third or fifth night if needed.
How doe Calotabs help Nature
throw off cold? First, Calotabs are
one of the most thorough and de-
pendable of all intestinal eliminants.

Second, Calotabs are diuretic to tho

Calotabs serve the double purpose Of

which are needed in the treatment
of colds.
Calotabs are quite economical;

representative Con Johnson. of Ire

meeting to appoint a special subcOm-

highly probable that an effort will be
made by the anti-sales takers to have

This would, of course, follow the pre-

railway express taxes. The latter two
are taxed under the franchise tax
law. while motor express companies
are taxed under the motor vehicle pro
