"I was attacked with dysentery bout July .15th, and used the doctor's medicine and other remedies with no relief, only getting worse all the time. I was unable to do anything and my weight dropped . from 145 to 125 pounds. I suffered for about two months when I was advised to use Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy. I used two bottles of it and it gave me permanent relief,' writes B. W. Hill of Snow Hill, N. C For sale by all dealers, " ?

' "'ji S,, S. Cedric, sailing from Queens town and arriving in New York July 26th. :;V ; Speaking now for the American commission, which is directly con nected with the states, I would say the field covered during its investiga tion in Europe was very broad. The countries visited included Italy, Aus tria, Hungary, Russia, Egypt, Ger- Franco, ' Belgium, Holland, ' England ana ireiana. , - - , This extensive area was covered by dividing the commission into sub committees so that considerable' time could be given to each country. You can well' understand we are not now in position to make a report nor even to suggest what our final recommendations will be. Two committees have ' been select ed to carefully sort out and compile the data, and arrange it for submis sion to the full commission, with rec ommendations for a final report. The committees are now at work. At this time I am able only to of ficially give to you the preliminary statement wnicn the commission has authorized and invite you to take it home with you and bestow upon it your careful consideration It is as follows: "The commission is deeply impres sed with the vital importance of. a thoroughly organized and united .rural population. ' In this respect the coun tries of Europe offer a lesson which may not long be disregarded hi Amer ica without serifjis consequences. VThe agricultural interests of most of the European countries visited by the commission are organized along one-or more of the following lines: edit, production, distribution and so cial organization, for the betterment or country life. ' ; "Organizations for the provision of credit facilities for European far mers follow the natural division into .short time personal credit and long tive and compare favorably with pro vincial and government bonds. "The organizations for production and distribution of farm products fol low co-operative lines. Farm pro ducts are sold by the producer at : a relatively higher price and are bought by the consumer at a"relatively lower price because the cost of distribution is consiaeraDiy lowerea Dy co-operative marketing which results, also, in improving the quality and uniformity of farm products and in promoting more business line metnods tn farm ing operations. . , ; To this end . the American com. mission with a membership in thirty six states : and in four provinces of utnaaa, nas effected an organization with Headquarters in Washington. C, and invites the aid and co-ooera tion of farmers and alt agricultural organizations and persons concerned in promoting a more prosperous and contented rural life as the enduring basis of .our material, social and civil welfare. . .'! Co-operative organizations should be formed with -view, first, to im proving their credit facilities, second' ly, to increasing their control over the marketing of crops and ' to strengthening their position as buy era and sellers, and thirdly, to estab lishing a channel whereby education' al propaganda and work for the im provement of country life conditions may be effectively brought to the nr dividual and his co-operation and participation in that work secured Credit is the keystone of the- or ganization proposed. American far mers possess potential credit of vast amount. The task is to discover plan whereby that credit " may be .made cheaply and easily available, The credit requirements of farmers differ radically from those of mer. chants and manufacturers chiefly be cause returns from money invested in agricultural ' enterprises . are much slower, though more certain, than re turns from other enterprises. For this reason in many European , coun tries financial systems have been es' tablished devoted exclusively to the Interests of the farmers. ' In the United States the farmer is dependent upon a banking system operated primarily in the interests of merchants and manufacturers, inter cets which are dissimilar to agncul ture. These European credit systems seem to be of two kinds, those providing personal, short time credit for operat ing purposes and those providing long time mortgage credit for works of as the apex, at Berl.'n. Every fiirmer .louiuig a local socMy assumes liability fo" its debts. In oth er words, he signs over his credit to the society and with this collective liability or credit as security the soci- J bility for the debts of the society ! ety contracts loans and solicits savintf than are the terms obtainable today by the American farmers. 1 1 "The pergonal credit organizations have the form of co-operative socie ! I ties. Very often the members of 1 ; these societies assume unlimited lia while in other cases the societies take j deposits. There may also be a cash capital subscribed or a cash reserve built up to serve as security in addi- Eastern Oregon Light and Power Co. Always at Your Service the form of limited liability. As a I rule in European countries, the law makes little or no provision for ex emptions of any kind. These short I time credit societies furnish cheap, sale and elastic credit to their men: J I here by reaBcn of their control by 1 1 fanners ano u c organizations ex- ' clusively in the interest of farmers j who operate . them at nominal cost and without seeking dividend proht to such societies. "Land mortgage credit has been organized so as to place a collective security back of bonds issued by land mortgage societies in contrast with the system of marketing individual loans upon individual mortgages.

A rate of interest is charged members on such loans sufficiently -above the rate paid by the society to creditors so that the margin will cover the expens es of the bank and leave enough over for reserves or other purposes. In their oneration it is necessary to insure two things, first, that, creditors shall be protected in their loans, and second, that members shall be protect ed acrainst the losses to which their liabilitv subjects them. .
