LOAN BODY HAS
A GOOD YEAR
Pine City Production Credit
Association Increases Its
Business Over 1895.
500 Members in Sew n
Counties are Listed on
It's Books.

The annual meeting of the Pine
City Production Credit Association
was held in that village Friday,
March 10, and showed a larger men,
bership, greater volume of loans and
increased earnings for 1886 as COM
pared with 1885.
The association embraces Pine. Chi
sage, Kanabec, Carlton, st. Louis,
Lake and Cook counties and has 533
members according to information
presented to the stockholders by the
secretary and board of directors. The
farmer now own S11.O55 In
class B stock and this amounts to II
per cent of the total stock outstand-
ing. The remainder of the capital
stock-Class Ais held by the Pro-
duction Credit Corporation OF st. Paul,
which supervises the association.
That money is invested in securities.
The volume of loans outstanding on
Dec. 81, 1886, was S145,319.37 and
the net earnings for 1886 amounted
to S937.40. The latter amount is made
up of interest on loans, interest on
investments and inspection fees. The
board of directors stressed the need
for making sound loans and conduct
ing the associations business so as
to insure its weathering any financial
storm of the future, and thus set aside
all of the earnings above expenses
in reserve funds TO take care of any
possible losses and provide for other
contingencies.
Makes Progress.
When proper reserves have been
established and guarantee fund built
up equal to % per cent of the cap
ital stock outstanding, the association
will face the question of what to do
with the additional earnings, whether
to reduce the interest rates at that
time, or to declare a dividend will
be decided upon by the association
in cooperation with the Production
Credit Corporation.
That the association is making
steady progress is indicated by its
income of S12,S23 for 1886. There
has also been some increase in ex-
pense but greater efficiency developed
during the past year and economies
effected have cut down expense rela-
tive to income. At the same time the
asso. iation has simplified and speeded
up its service to borrower-members.
Elect Officers.
In addition to considering the finan-
Cial report on the business for the
year, and comparisons with previous
years the members elected directors
to fill expiring terms. Directors
elected were Magnus Hadselford OF
Duluth, and Robert o. Nelson of Bra
ham, elected to succeed retiring mem
bers.
After the stockholders meeting, the
board members chose Clair Shuey,
president, and Albert Edblad, vice
president They also rehired H. E.
Cragun as secretary-treasurer to han
die the associations business for an
other year.
The meeting was more largely at
tended this year than the last two
annual meetings. A free lunch was
served at noon to members and guests.
There was entertainment in the way
of singing and music. The business
meeting was followed by able speak
ers who explained the workings of the
Production Credit system and the adj
vantages of being member of asso-
Citations of this kind.

SkysCrapGr Men
Turn Attention
to Small Homes

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The inter-
est which is being shown in the
small house is demonstrated by the
fact that several builders who have
sponsored some Of the skyscrapers
Of this city have turned their atten-
ton to suburban developments.
The fact that the market in this
field is tremendous enough to at
tract these men is pointed out in
a recent column by Gustave zismer
on the real estate page of the New
York Sun
A residential community is under
construction at Valley Stream, Long
Island, by the builders of Manhat-
tons Chanin Building and Lincoln
Hotel. II is proposed to have 1900
homes in this community eventu-
ally.
The constructor Of the Chrysler
Building is erecting homes at Flush
ing, Long Island, and has recently
purchased property at Roslyn for
an additional project. The man who
built the Hotel New Yorker recently
started a development at Freeport,
Long Island; and a project at Ten
ady NJ j., is under construction by
the builder of a number of coop

Louis TO Get
FIRST SHOT AT
Jim BRADD0Ck
Braddock Signs for Title
Bout with Bomber in June
Schmeling Fight Off

NEW YORK CITY, Feb. l. -
Smashing Sehmeling's dreams OF re-
gaining his world heavyweight
crown in the near future, Joe Gould,
manager of heavyweight champion
Jim Braddock, announced that he
had accepted an offer of $500.000
with an option of fifty percent OF
the gate, for a title bout between
Braddock and Joe Louis sometime
this summer.
The fight probably viii be held at
Soldiers Field, sometime in June,
Gould said The offer was made
by Sheldon Clark. who previously
had been associated with Tex Rick
ard and Mike Jacobs in other fight
promotional ventures.
Although Braddock has been for
some time signed to fight Max
Sehmeling on June 8, Gould said he
and Braddock would go ahead with
the Louis bout instead, as he felt
it would be bigger drawing card.
Gould posted $4,000 with the New
York State Boxing Commission to
guarantee Braddock's bout with
Schmeling, but Gould declared he
would ask the return of the forfeit
money, and would go ahead with the
Louis fight anyway, even if the
check is not returned.

yer Fox was keenly disappointed
when he received a note from his
problem child to the effect that he
had been training hard all winter
and succeeded in trimming his
weight down some 20 pounds He let
Hogan know of his disappointment
and in no uncertain terms let Shan
ty, or Big Barn, if you prefer know
that he would have no 245-pounder
hanging around his ball park. II
mus be 225 pounds, or no go.
The Nationals hurting staff Is
watching the weight war that is
being waged with keen interest,
They made no bones about admit
ting last fall that Hogan. as a
catcher, was much to be preferred
over Cliff Bolton. 1t was like his
ting the broad side of barn when
pitching to Hogan. And for all his
tonnage Hogan was an active worker
behind the plate. He swung a mean
willow too. His big bat broke up
several games for the Nationals last
fall IN the 10 games he toiled, Ho-
gan batted 1923.
And Tough On Umpires
The AL. umpires applaud Grit
flths efforts to white down Ho-
CANS bulg. Working behind Hogan
was like working in the dark 70
most Of the umpires. When his big
hulk doomed up before them it COM
pletely obliterated the course of the
pitch. The best an ump could do
under the circumstances was to
guess and pray that the batter
would not squawk too vehemently.
Hogan grew too big to work for
the Giants and the Braves and was
with Albany when Griff gave him
another chance It is likely to be his
last opportunity, for in the major
leagues, as elsewhere, nobody loves
a fat man.

Clark Griffith, the silver-haired
owner of the Washington Nation
ais, has several weighty problems on
his mind. The weightiest. without a
doubt, is Catcher Frank Hogan,
sometimes called "Shanty," though
"Shanty' no longer describes the
gigantic backstopper. big Barn
would be more like it.
Last fall, after Hogan had gone
to Washington's rescue late in the
season after Cliff Bolton had bolt
ed" Griff let the huge catcher know
that there was no complaint on his
work at the plate and behind it.
But the little Cor perhaps one should
say big) question of Hogan's weight
was something else again. Griff
made it plain that he did not care
to have 265 FOUNDER hanging
around Washington.
Now, if Hogan was really serious
about holding down job in the big
leagues, he should be willing to melt
off few pounds-about 40, to be
exact. In other words, Griff prom
ised Hogan that his job would be
waiting for him in the spring pro-
vided he showed up for training
scaling no more than 225. Griffith
was not unreasonable. He was will
ling to cooperate with the catcher to
the extent of sending him to Hot
Springs, Ark, for a couple of weeks
before the team assembled. Hogan
agreed to play BALI with Griffith.
