COIN FOR FARMERS
LONDON, July 11. Longer term
for loans, cheaper money for farm
ers, nml 08tfttllnhnient of co-opor.t-
llvo banks In rural dlatrtcts are sontd
of the Important reforms which will
ho urged by the American 'Agricul
tural CommUnlon which has bo?n
ntudylnR nericulturnl coudlttona In
KuroH for threo months nccordlng In
Director Oonornl Clnrenco J. Owens,
who heads tlio delegation of 7r mem
ln rs representing thirty states which
nrrtved In London today from Parts.
Director Gcueral Owens nnd other
members of tho commission today
for tho first tlnio agreed to publish,
through tho medium of tho United
Press tho details of tne three months
Htudy nnd tho legislation that the
commission will urge congress to put
through. Tho statements are tho
first comprehensive and official ones
that liavo been mado by any member
of tho commission, which has jiut
completed a tour of Italy, Austria,
Hungary, Denmark, Belgium, Ger
many, Holand and Prance. The
Americans will stop hero threo days
before touring Ireland. They will
sail on tho Cedrlo for America on
July 18.
Credit Increases Kfflclency.
"Everywhere," declared Director
Owens, "wo havo found that the won
derfully efficient farming systems of
Europe nnd especially crowded Ger
many, havo been almost solely due to
the systems of credit available to
farmers. Whllo wo did not find any
European farmer mora competent, or
more ablo, or moro Industrious than
their brothers in America, we did
find that tho European farmers get
moro out of less territory than the
American farmers. And I bellovo
this Is due to tho system In voguo of
long torm loans, cheaper money, co
operative banks and Integrity and
character as an important factor
when financiers aro looking for se
curity for loans."
Doctor Dutterfleld of tho Massa
chusetU Agricultural College was en
thusiastic orcr the work of tho com
mission. He believes that Its report
Is of deepest Interest and of vital Im
portance to every farmer In America.
"I am more than satisfied with our
study abroad," said Dr. Dutterfleld.
"I heartily agree with what Mr.
Owens has said. The great 'farming
efficiency of Germany can bo laid
directly to tho system of cheaper
money for tho farmers and to co
operative farmers' backs."
Some Queer Ranks Seen.
" 'Queer Banks Wo Have Seen,'
might well be the title of a chapter
In tho commission's report," said
Congressman Moss of Indiana, the
only congressman In tho party. M,"
Moss was with the sub-committee
which toured Italy, Austria and Hun
gary.
"Tho queerest co-operatlvo bank
or all we saw was in a little town In
Italy. It was located In a small room
or an old but beautiful church. The
priest was tho banker, cashier, clerk,
und bookkeeper. He received no sal
ary. Tho bank was started some
years ago on a capital of $9.20 which
represented tho cost of the books. It
lias loans out at 4 1-2 per cent to
farmers for $20,000. Tho bank has
n fat reserve of which tho priest
banker is the custodian. The bank
has never lost n dollar. It costs 20
cents to become a stockholder.
"In Hungary wo found small banks
In farming communities whero tho
government paid the cost or admlnls
tratlon so the farmers might borrow
money at 2 per cent whllo tho gov
ernment at the same time was bor
rowing at 4 per cent.
ItecommendAtlon Mode.
"While I am doubtful If the. United
States could adopt the German sys
tem, I firmly believe great success
would follow the adoption of those
systems with modifications. Condi
tions In Germany and In Europo in
general, nro much different from
thoso at home. Tho little banks in
Germany are often Ju the backroom
of a village pos toff Ice. The poit
muster, tho preacher of tho village
schoolmaster Is usually the banker.
Ho may get anywhere from $10 to
$iC a month for being banker. The
loans are Jong, frequently stretching
over a period of from DO to 75 years.
"The people aro greatful and op
preclativo of small things. Tho op
portunlty for Investment and earning
capacity of monoy (a amull. In some
hoctlons of Hungary we found that
tho greatest factor In Improving con
ditions. In putting more money in
circulation and Increasing vuluo cf
property, was tho money sent homo
by Hungarians who had gone to Am
erica, and to adopt some of Europe's
banking echomes It would bo noces
BAry tp adopt somo Europeun condi
tions. You can foreclose and turn a
man off lila place, sell him out cf
house and home, take everything ex
cept the clothes on his back, In threo
weeks In ICurojm."

BLAZE EXTINGUISHED
MILL VALLEY, Cnl., July 11.
Tho Nro on Mount Tnmnlpals, which
started about 11 o'clock Monday,
near the railroad track, between the
"bowknot" nnd West Point, and
burned for four days. Is declared to
day to be practically extinguished, as
far as this side 'of tho mountain Is
concerned. Tho samo flro, however.
Is continuing toward the Corte Ma
dera district, and most of tho troops
nnd volunteer flro fighters have
been transferred toliattle against this
blaxe, with every prospect of success
At no time was Mill Valley seri
ously threatened, the brush fires nev
er having approached closer than
three-quarters of a mile. Tho dam
age to tho town from sensational re
ports sent out Is declared to bo far
more serious than any resulting from
tho fire.
Two thousand dollcrs. It Is c".
mated, is n liberal calculation of tin
actual loss.
Most of the loss falls on the Mount
Tamalpals and Mulr Woods Scenic
railway. The greatest loss was oc
casioned by flooding Tnmnlpals Inn,
at tho summit of the mountain, as :
measure of precaution, when flro
threatened. Tho expense of main
taining tho thousands of troops nnd
volunteer flro fighters will run Inla
many thousands of dollars.
