law. Thoce who hate been won
dering just where they could find
enough money to make an ade
quate borrow on big1 properties
will know where to apply.
The general conditions for the
operation of these banks are that
the lands are appraised by un
prejudiced federal appraisers, and
are eligible for loans up to 50 per
cent of their valuation. The fed
eral government approves the se
curities, so that the land notes
or mortganes have an unchang
ing, definite value, as stable as
the government itself.

cent basis. This pars off both
interest and principal, so that the
land, is cleared of debt at the end
of the loan period.
Two forma o" land banks were
authorized by the federal act. The
other required that the borrower
be also a subscriber to the capi
tal stock of the bank unit. This
subscription was the principal
part of the working capital of the
bank. It was the intent of the law
that this should be a farmers'
bank but they have not been able
to gain control, and the principal
thing1 they have had from it Is
the--privilege of loans at good
rates." The banking branch It is
understood has actually made a
profit of from 12 to 15 per cent
on Itts capital stock, while it has
paid "a dividend of 6 per cent,
keeping the remainder for surplus.'-
As the borrower is forced
to- relinqu'sh his stock at the end
of 'his loan, period those who hold
stock without borrowing might be
heaping up a treasure to be di
vided afterHhe farmers; whose
payments aid the 'surplus.' The
Joint stock bank requires no stock
subscription from Jhe borrower;
and money can be loaned on a
rented farm, which was "hot true

One statement was made by
Professor Harrington, that the
University ot. Cincinnati, wishing
to outline a course that would
most help its students, made au
exhaustive Inquiry among large
business hduses as to what "the
aveiage student most needed. The
answer was that they were most
deficient in the power to tell an
audience, large- or small, what
they knew and should be easily
able to tell, in convincing man
ner. Following this survey the
university Jas made public speak
ing one of jts most strenuous
courses, and insists on it above
others of less importance.

IRE DOING- WELL
Reports Reaching Superin
tendent Show Progress
in Rural Districts
Out of the total ot about 134
school districts in Marlon county
75 reported better than 95 per
cent atendance for their first
monthly report to the county
school superintendent. There
were15 of these that had 100
per cent with every pupil at
school every day.
Some of these reports, however,
might need a bit of interpreta
tioH. District No. 18 had only
one pupil up to the time the re
port was made out,. Some of the
others started late, and they had
only a few days of school to re-
Tort up to the time the report was
required.
District No. 82 has a two-room
school with a large attendance,
and not one missed a roll call
District No. 115 has only two
pupils, with 100 per cent District
No. 134, Buena Crest, has two
crowded rooms, one of the most
progressive rural BChools in the
county and.it, too, scored 100
per cent.
A pupil in the little school is
worth a far larger percentage
than one in the big school. Where
as there could be a number of
absences in the big ' school, and
still reduce the percentage per
the single truant or stay-at-home
In the little school of one or two
or three pupils would carve the
percentage all to ribbons by a
single stay-out.' One day's ab
sence of one pupil in a three-per
son school, 4f perchance the
school --had been running only a
week, would cut the "average"
attendance by 7 per cent. That
so many were able to make 95
per cent or better, most of them
fdr two or three weeks, is quite
a remarkable showing for a busy
fall. The. attendance increases
and steadies notably, later in the
year.
