Edgefield, S C, .Ian 23 ? The Ladies' Memorial Association to ! day <? ?I1 tho shipment of the I Confederate monument which the organization is building. The money has heen raised ami is now in the buna to pay for thw pedestal. The finishing shaft or figure will he ordered out later when tho ren aimler of the money is raised. A building and loan as-*?- iation has t>een foimed here which will loan money for building h uses in town and also loan money on improved farms in the country. This latter feature will he similar to the system of co-operative land loan hanks which has heen so phenomenally successful in Cier J many I'lie German institutions ' have hecotne as strong as the im 1 perial national hanks. The Ger, man farmers used to tie poorer ! than those of the South are now and vet hy means of land loan ! tianks they have heroine rich hy savings just as the work-people of I Massachusetts have accumulated ho much money in tluer co-opera live hanks and those of Pennsylvania have done in their building and loan associations. I he rapid and successful growth of this land loan hank movement in Germany has heen perhaps the most wonderful phase of German progress. Its most important features are: (l)thc co-operative feature and <2) the careful selection of the members. Only those wh work well and pay their debts regularly may become members. | Kverv application is carefully examined into hy the hoard of directors. Kuril hank confines its I operations to s comparatively j small area in which all people are known to each other, thereby us soring that tho hoard will havo , full knowledge of values of property and of the character of the applicants. These hanks have hud much influence in changing tho German farmer from a man of no credit or had credit to one of excedent credit. The co-operative j hank provides to honest and industrious farmers tho means to I pay and the system engenders a J pride in becoming a member of an association one of the requisites of which is prompt payment of all debts. The success of the Edgefield institution will, without doubt, cause an extension of the system to other counties and it is possible that out of this movement the farmers may derive mueh benefit. The question of succoss with farm loans depends entirely upon the care with which securety and the personality of the borrower and more especially with the strictneu with which prompt paymeota as agreed arc made. Everybody knows that the * * , building and loan feature of local associations is all right. This means security on town property and loans to working people who receive regular wages or merchants who can spare money at regular intervals. The land loan feature is not common and will develop a new phase of those installment or co-operative institute us. The Kdgelield institution is the American Building & Loan Association and the German Land Loan Bunk combined. It looks like a good move and the result, after a few years will be of inteiest.
