of the Columbia Federal Land bank.i

v'here he attended a conference or
the presidents of the 1- federal land
banks, with Secretary McAdoo ana
the members of the federal farm loan
board, expressed gratification over the
fact that this conference had fixed *
fiat rate of 5 per cent., applying to
all parts of the United States. He de
dared that this interest wouia prove i
a great boon to the farmers of the;
Southeastern States and predicted j
that within a year the Columbia Fed-!
'eral Land bank Will have made loans
aggregating $10,000,000. I
Mr. von Engelken also announced
that the conferece of bank presi

To lend to farmers of this dis- j
trict, Mr. von Engelken urged that i
the legislatures of ^'North Carolina,;
South Carolina, Georgia and Florida:
immediately pass laws making farm
loan bonds approved investments for |
lb trust funds, insurance companies and
Saving8 banks. j
Mr. von Engelken announced that
the bondg issued by the 12 federal i
land banks would be placed on the |
market at 3 1-2 per cent., but would
probably be sold at a premium. He I
avrircooo^ trro t Mr?r> ftVPf fhp J
that the federal farm loan board has j:
anticipated that at least $100,000.000'
of these bonds will be issued during i
the coming year and is making ar-1
rangements which will assure a ready i
market for them. ATI of this money!
vill be made available to the farmers !
of the United States at 5 per cent.
To borrow from these federal land;
"banks, farmers are required to or-j
g-anize themselves into groups con-1
taining at least ten farmer-borrowers j
and each group asking for at least'
*21),000 of loans. The Columbia Fed-j

This new banking system is purely1
cooperative, it is for the sole uso
of farmers and prospective farmers.
Farmers will eventually own all o! j
the stock of the federal land bank*. j
and they will elect the officers of
these banks. There is no opportunity!
for individual profit in the entire sys
tem.
The preliminary organization of na- j
tional farm loan associations has)
progressed to a degree far beyond the
expectations of the fedral farm loan j
board at Washington and everything
points to the unqualified success of;
this new enterprise. j

j Exchange.
Unless something unforeseen hap
pens, people will this spring have
the opportunity of witnessing a great
heavenly phenomenon?a mighty
comet blazing forth niglrt after night,
with its tail sweeping an immense
arc through the heavens, a source of
terror to the superstitious folk who
may happen to be in the city, but of
intense interest to all.
Absurd scares may happen among
usually well balanced people who
believe the tail of the comet will
sweep the surface of mother earth
with, devastating effect. According
to predictions this comet will be
plainly visible in South Carolina.
"Comet B, 1916," is the name of
1 the stranger. It is so called because
it was the second comet discovered
last year. Professor Wolf, of Koe
nigstuhl, detected the rushing body's
faint picture on a photographic plate
last April and proceeded to telegraph
the news all over the world with
great vjoy.
The statement that the new com
et will be a monster rests principally
on the fact that it was discovered
when fully four hundred million
miles I rum lUC trill Ul, JUOl naum uaw I
orbit of the great planet Jupiter.
All comets increase greatly in size J
and brilliancy as they approach the j
sun. If such proves to be the case |
this time, "Comet B, 15*16," should '
make a great impression.
It is useless to go out and look .
for the comet tonight,' as it is now 1
on the other side of the sun, whose c
illnminon rv>Tl PPO1Q it. The! ^
earth, sun and comet have just pass

I Smart One-Piew Frock Developed
In Two Materials.
What are the smart women wear
\
I'g? And what are tlie tempting bits
)f finery exhibited in these glittering
windows that cast such a spell about
hem?
Straw hats are quite the accepted
hing now. One can count the hats
hat are not springlike, so few an.1
ar between are they. The number
>f people who still cling to the idea
hat a straw hat is out of place be- j
ore Easter, grows less and less daily. ]
n fact, the tables are entirely turn-l
d, and it is hard to believe that the;
mt-of-place hats are those bright, |
pringllK.e creations an a-uiwm
lowers, and not those of darker hues
.nd heavier materials.
Even as early as this, hats of satin
>r satin and straw are giving place
o those of all-straw. Crepe and
traw combinations are very good
tyle. Sometimes thef crepe is used
or the crowns of the small high
:rowned turbans with a little straw
i.round the narrow Drims, or eiae it
s used for the brims of the wide
ailors which have crowns of straw.
Very high crowned and almost
>rimless are some of i.he most popular
ihapes, but the picturesque, wide
)rimmed styles and fancy shapes are
ilso being worn.
Gray a Leading Color.
Evidently, gray is one of the smart
est of the light colors this season,
kmd. bei?:e and putty are others
vhich h-ave already- been successfully
aunched. The popular gray is a soft
one, most attractive in dresses of
hiffon and crepe beaded or braided
slaborately in a deeper tone of gTay.
"or the most part, all-gray is gener
illy favored, but a <ouch of light blue
>r coral pink appears here and there.
Even in shoes, gray i-s a color con
iiderably used. Gray suede and kid
mmps are exceptionally smart to go
vith afternoon dresses, and in shoes
or street wear the gray suede up
minibuses roll by, with interesting
eaiher ?^ps are most desirable.
2ray for gloves is also fashionable,
'specially to match the shoes or
Iress.
The first sketch shows one of the
atest forms of the straight frock. It
