It haa been recognised for some
tbat tats country is behind
aaany Sarenean countries tn what it
Tarnish** is tbe way of aid In certain
direction* to tenners. In 181* all
tare* ot the chief political parties
mjmmm\*m theme*! ve* to provide legislation for wbat ia known as rnral
credit. As the Democratic party has
control of legislation at present it
haa enacted wbat is known as .she
"Holli* Rural Credit* Law", a law
which we are informed Pres. Wilson
signed July 17 with unfeigned
emotion."
In the Outlook of Aug 2, Paul V.
Collins who for over 20 years has
been publishing at Minneapolis tbe
"Northwestern Agriculturalist" analysis this law wbich be characterises as "a nondescript abortion, a
mixture, a scheme to establish competition between two conflicting*
Systems." It is he says like a "shot
' Ran qaack nostrum", it has ingredients enough to make sure that
eome one or two may fit tbs case,
provided the others do not flrst kill
tbe patient.
The new law provides two distinct
systems in competition witb each
other co-operation among farmers
versos Joint stock banks. Farm
borrowers are to organise themselves
iatto ioaai co-operati?* credit anions
who** functions will b* to pas* on all
applications of tbeir own members
tor mortgage loans and te appraiae
the farms. After tb* property ha*
been reinapected by an agent from
the district Federal land bank, the
loan will be made, for not less than
40 years, requiring annual payments
apon a plan that will pay off tbe debt
at the end of the t*>rm adopted.
Bach borrower must use five percent
Of his loan in purchasing stock in his
credit nnion and tbe union uses this
money in purchasing an equal amount
of stock in the district Federal land
bank, which stock is neld in trust by
the bank as additional security with
each mortgage.
But now comes an open door for
evading co-nperative joint liability;
for evading the provision which
makes it compulsory for the farmer
who borrows at all tc gii\ a flrst
mortgage, not redeemable by him in
less than five years; for evading the
prohibition to sell a farm subject to
tbe mortgage assumed by tbe buyer,
without the consent of the credit
anion which Indorsed tbe mortgage
and the distant Federal Land Bank.
Tbe law provides for ail theseevseion*
of its co-operative Conditions by
establishing an independent, rival
system of capitalistic joint-stock
banks, without the group of restrictions whicb are put upon tbe co-
qperatore Tbese banks will have
no connection with the Federal land
banks and will sell tbeir own bonds
in competition with tbe bonds of
tbose banks, tnereby increasing the
the interest rate on bonds and dividing tbe loan field as to farm mortgages.
Tbe law is inadequate, Mr. Collins
declares, because itr> co-operative and
joint stock bank system tend to
neutralize e.-ich other
It is ioadeqaate because it reaches
only land owners, not tenants wbo
are more numerous tban owners; and
it reaches ouly such owners as want
mortgage loans for from five to forty
years and not those wbo want a crop
production loan for a year or a cattle
loan for two or tbree years.
"And yet", Mr. Collins exclaims,"
she law is proclaimed as a great
triumph of relief, a marvel of constructive legislation, a redemption of
the Democratic pledge, a fulfillment
Of prophecy."

Drying Up Duluth
Workingmen of Duluth, Minn,
home of tbe new 820,000.000 steel
plant, organized in the recent dry-
versus-wet campaln tbere and administered the knockout blow to booze.
Inasmuch as Dulutb is the largest
city in the country to go dry of its
own good will, rather than through
State-wide prohibition, tbe resnlt is
notable. One observes, too, that the
"drys" did not bave to send for some
BUly Sanday to run tbeir campain—
and win For this job they picked
State Senator Dick Jones, trades
unionist. Jones 1* a Dulutb boy, aged
twenty-eight,*and has been closely

Cot into tbe campaign and swung
th. workingmen over to bi* oan**.
He formed tbs Trade Union Dry
Lsagu* and converted hundreds of
workingmsn to tb* proposition of
spending tboir pay night* elsewhere
than in saloon*. Jones's victory
(and Duluth's) seems rather significant
to as. It is the presage of a new
alignment on tbe liquor question.
Certain labor leader* of the old-
faBhioned variety may have been
lined up witb the liquor interests for
years, bnt Senator Jones says:
"I am opposed to the liquor traffic
because it has meddled with the trade-
unioD movement and caused many of
its leaders to forget the sound principles upon which organized labor
stands."
it is refreshing to find a leader Of
the Dick Jones type. We shall have
more of them.—Collier's.

and mucb credit is due them for this
splendid booklet.
Northeastern Michigan is particularly fortunate in having nine halftones of views taken in tbis district'

nine views are ones whicb have been
used in the Northeastern Michigan

Tbe failure of the railroad to forward the Chautauqua tent promptly
from Owosso bere caused some little
embarrassment and delay though the
sessions on Tuesday were held not
withstanding. Tbe afternoon session
was held at the Methodist church
wbich accommodated the crowd very
nicely. Bills were circulated in ths
city giving notice of tbe change, so
that no special trouble was oaused
thereby. It was impossible to get
the seating arranged lo the evening
and the tent wae oaly partially
lighted. Part of tho audienoe were
compelled to stand nnd the entertainment did not begin till an boar late,
yefall took things good nstnrodly,
feeling that tbe Chantanqun people
were not to blame and were doing tbe
best they could.
The Hoosier Male Quartet filled the
afternoon program and tbe opening
of the evening's We tbink there
was nothing to criticise in tbeir performance and touch to commend.
They appear like clean voung men
and we tbink all were pleased with
tbeir, programs.
While Mr. Foliansbee's lecture is
not just what one migbt expect per
haps from tbe title, very likely it
was fairly satisfactory. Wbile not
formally defining "Genius," he spoke
of its derivation, indicating the idea
of the word held anciently. For
"Gumption" h e gave a definition quite different we tbink
from tbat commonly held.
"Applied energy" was tbe Puritan
idea of gumption and tbis is wbat he
means by it. Mr. Follansbee was for
many years an educator, as he said,
and consequently his address and
illustrations had tbe color of the
school room. Though his parents
were from a foreign country, bis own
Americanism is of tbe stalwart variety.
Mr. Foliunsbee seams to tbink tbat
tbere is too mucb impudence in
Yuunx America and tbat tbere is a
lack of discipline in the homes and
the schools. "We need more manners, morais and patriotism in our
schools," he declared Hm is a strong

DAY
The Secretary of Agriculture, under
date of July 21, 1916, certified to the
Secretary of the Treasury and tbe
governors and State highway department* ot tbe several States tbe sp-
portionment of the $5,000,000 of
Federal road funds available for tbe
fiscal year ending June 30, 1917. This
is the first installment of. Federal
moneys to be apportioned to the
States under the Federal-aid road act
approved July 11, 1916. Before making tbe division among the States,
the Secretary, ic accordance with the
act, deducted 3 per cent, or $150,000,
needed for administering its provisions. Tbis left $4,860,000 to be apportioned among the States, one-
third in the ratio of area, one-third
ln the ratio of population, and one-
third in tbe ratio of mileage of rural
delivery routes and star routes. Tbe
apportionment on this basis gives
Michigan the sum of 1145,783.72, As
might be expected, Texas receives
tbe largest sum and Rhode Island the
smallest.
Ths apportionment indicated above
is only ot one year's funds. For succeeding fiscal years the act appropriate* tha following  amounts:
1918 (10,000,000    1920       $20,000,000
1919 15,000,000 1921 2t, 000,000
Tb* act requires that tbs apportionment for «ae» year shall be made in
th* same manner. Different sums
are appropriated for each year and
the apportionment must also take
into consideration tbe population as
shown by tbe latest available Federal
census and tbe mileage of rural delivery and star routes as shown by
tbe certificate of the Postmaster
General for the next preceding fiscal
year. A new apportionment, therefore, must be announced for each
fiscal year.
The apportionment as given above
does not take into consideration tbe
SI, 000,000 additional appropriated
each year for lOyearsforthe development of rural roads in the National
Forests.

The higher court in New York
State has followed the trial court m
fining a Buffalo drug concern *3,000
damages for selling an opium product
called heroin to a woman'8 minor son.
Tbis young fellow of twenty years has
been in sound health, holding a good
job, and helping support bis widowed
motber, but tbe drug turned him into
a vagabond, idler, and criminal. The
learned judge heid the druggist responsible in tbese works:
"Tbe evidence in this case does not
goto the extent of establishing an evil
purpose to destroy tbe health and
activities of tbis young man; but the
proof does abundantly establish, in
our judgment, tbat the defendants
were wholly reckless cf the rights of
ctbers. These defendants were
pharmacists, skilled in tbe science ot
mixing drugs; tbey knew their par
poses, uses, and effects.
In tbe face   of   this   general  know
] ledge of the baneful effects of heroin,
{and   in   tbe   face   of   tbeir    constant
I daily observation of the actual deadly
j effects upon   tbe   victim   wbom   they
were supplying with it,   these  defendants actuated   only   by   greed,   con
tinued for many months to sell   it   to
this young man and his deluded companions."

Liquor Bars  Efficiency.
Washington, D. C., Aug. 10—The
work of "identifying religion and
sobriety," in the words of the Very
Rev. P. J. O'Callaghan, formerly a
resident of Cbicago, was continued
here today with tbe opening of the
forty-sixth convention of the Catho-
lis Total Abstinence anion, with 600
delegates in attendance. The chief
address of the day was that of Archbishop Keane of Dubuque.
"The country is suffering from inefficiency induced by Intoxicants,"
he said. "We have too mucb crime,
poverty, misery, and sin as the consequence of liquor. The per capita
consumption of alcoholic liquors
steadily increases notwithstanding all
our efforts.
"We know that if <pvery man in America would become a total abstainer
the most serious social problem would
be no more. Then tbe most threatening menace to our posterity would be
almostnegllgible. This is not rhetoric
it is cold truth "
Wells-Gillean.

Tbe attendance at the Wise Farmers' picnic at Stevenson lake on Friday was considerably smaller than
usual, dne no doubt to tba harry of
farm work. Tbis has been a most
strenuous season for farmers and
work has been rushing all of them.
The audience was dissppointed in net
greeting Mr. Rawdon though bo came
later after quite a few bad  left.
Of course tbose wbo went in the
forenoon enjoyed a picnic dinner
and a good social time. In tbe absence of the chief speaker, a number
of local speakers were pressed into
service, several of them being candidates. It ie a very noticeable fact
that candidates are only too ready to
declare tbeir position on questions
interesting the people and one cannot help but see that tbe pe*j»lo
are steadily demanding a higher
standard of tbose wbo are eeeklag
public positions.
After tbe audience bad sung America and Rev. Large bad offered prayer. Pres. Jennings called npon J. F.
Tatman to take tbe place of M. F.
Johnson wbo was absent. Assni
that probably a number of candi
were present, Mr. Tatman advised all
voters to demand cf alt candidates a
square statement of tbeir posttien
upon tbe great moral questions inter-
resting the people now. He was glad
tbat it is getting decidedly poptwar
now to be on tbe right side.
Francis McNamara of Mt. Pleasant
declared tbat tbe saloon is doomeS.
Tbe industrial world has decrees
tbat no longer will a man who sm
infoxicating drink be tolerated in any
position of trust. It is one ef th©
most encouraging signs of the times
that we are demanding a higher
standard of political life. No finer
example of exalted national spirit
can be found than shown in our dealings with Cuba. •
Senator Damon declared tbat the
people have the right to demand ef
their legislators all that they., can
reasonable do.
Legislation is to a certain extent a
matter of compromise. Oftentimes
members cannot secure the passage
of a bill in the form they would like.
While urging the adoption of th©
prohibitory amendment, he warned
all against the so called "Home
Rule" humbug, signatures to petitions for which were obtained by all
sorts of misrepresentation. He emphasized the importance of law enforcement.
Re?. Large was called upon a&ti expressed bis pleasure- in finding that
former brewery at North Lansing is
tbe being converted into an automobile
factory. He described conditions in
parts of Indiana wbere he bad
recently been, due to the adoption *f
the Home Rule humbug sought hy
the liquor interests to be imposed apon this state. The temperance people
of Indiana feel that tbe passage ef
