Tho up-to-date bankers know that it'will help their business as well as their farmers and so are willing to aid in tho good work. Many have the impression that those in tho organization are respon sible for the other association mem bers debts, which is not tho case, Eaw borrower must purchase, stock in tho -Land Bank equal to five per cent of his mortgage. Tho borrower is liable, in case that n defaulter's farm can not be sold for fifty per cent of its value to pay oft" the mortgage, to an amount equal to double the amount of his bank stock, or but tei per; cent of his loan. Tho probabilitj that'll would bo necessary to pay oil n defaulter's loss would be very re mote, for first tho farm would bring at east fifty per cent of its Value, tnd if it did not tho slight dilTerenco would bo all that would have to bo proportioned among the association members.

It was a war determined nnnn as wars used to be determine i 1 1 the old, un happy days when copies were no where consulted by their rulers and interest of dynasties or little groups of ambitious men who wero accustom ed to use their fellowmen as pawns and tools. "Vessels of every kind . . have been ruthlessly sent to the bottom without warning and without thought of help or mercy for those on board, the vessels of friendly neutrals nlong with those of belligerents." "I nm not now thinking of the loss Df property involved . . . but on 'y of the wanton and wholesale dc itruction of the lives of noncombat- mts, men, women and children en gaged in pursuits which have always even in the darkest periods of modern history, been deemed innocent and legitimate." "Property can bo paid for; tho lives ot peaceful und innocent persons can not bo." "Tho present German submarine warfare against commerce is a war faro against mankind . . . There has been no discrimination. lengo Is to all mankind." "There is ono choice ... we are incapable of making; we will not ihooso the path of submission. The wrongs against which we now array ourselves aro no common wrong; they cut to tho very roots of human life." "I advise that tho congress declare the Fecent course of tho imperial Ger man government to do nothing less than war ngajnst the United States ;overnment and the people of the United States." "What this will involve is . practical cooperation with tho gov ernments now at war with Germany "Russia was always . . . demo cratic at heart."

Tho world must be made safe for democracy." "Wo act without animus to the Ger man people but only to an irrespon sible government which ... is running amuck. We are tho sincere friends of the German people. Wo shall havo an opportunity to prove this ... in our attitude toward the millions of German birth and na tive sympathy who live amongst us." "They are, most of them, true and loyal Americans. They will be prompt to stand with us. Disloyalty . . will be dealt with stern repression." "Tho right is more precious than pcaco . . .

"The primary duty of a citizen is loyalty lo his country," continued" tho cardinal. "This loyal ty ii manifested more by acta than words; by solemn service rather than by empty declamations.

Tho work of tho na ional defense council in co-ordinating all defense measures not strictly mil itary 'or naval has been regarded as quite as important as any other task of preparedness. Mobilization Plan Complete. Tho resulting mobilization plan is said to be one of the most complete worked out in any country. As a central body around which will rovolve the many government and private agencies working for indus 'rial sorvicc, the council has created a Tho chal- commercial economy board with broad authority to deal with the crucial pro blem of war-time distribution of com- nodities.

A screen to be sat isfactory must combine tho following points: It must bar tho fish from entering the ditch, it must clean it- lelf of the debris which comes down with .the water and it must continue 'o operate at al stages of water. The screen which the Commission is in stalling combines these features says the State Game Warden. While here 'Air.

These wero shown at the Rex heatro on Wednesday night to a large and appreciative nudience and on ThurSdoy afternoon tto tho school children.

More Water Trouble. The Nevada Ditch company has fil ed contempt cases against a number of other ditch companies alleging a taking of water when needed by the Nevada Ditch. Such cases grow out of lack of wa ter and conflicting interests. Tho true facts are that there is no real priority among a number of the ditch es. The priority is more in the na ture of a legal complication which serves to mako trouble beUyeen neigh bors and tho construction of tho Warmsprings reservoir would settle every ono of tho suits and determine all priorities,- says John Rigby. The legal germ however seems to be a controlling factor of tho ago. It's not "what shall wo do to get on?" but "what shall wo do' to prevent some one else getting on?" which takes 1 money from the farmer without ade quate return.
