We shall be delighted to have all
farmers who are not stockholders also
attend the meeting,” Mr. Lanford
said, ”in order that they might learn
of the credit service which is offered,
to the fanners of this seption by the
association. By means of production
credit associations, farmers have,been
able to reduce the cost of making and
collecting loans and by keeping the
system on a souhd basis they can ob
tain funds at costs as low as those
available to any other industry,
“Interest^n loans made by the as-
is payable when loans are
due and the borrower pay.St 5 per cent
interest only for the’time* he actually
has. the money. F3ach borrower is re
quired tp take put class B stock in
the association in an atnount equiva
lent to 6'per cent of the loan when he
gets his initial loan and may obtain
new loans without purchasing addi
tional ‘stock.
‘‘Thousands of farmers all., over the
country, are now stockholders in pro
duction credit associations and are
thoroughly sold on the idea of co
operative credit. We are anxious that
pvfi y-fanner in this section shall at
Iea.st have the opportunity of know
ing of the credit service that we of
fer aind we cordially invite all to ouc
annual meeting,” Mr. Lanford added.

HUMANITY—Still Same ‘
The more thoughtful members of
the human family have alw:ays been pie sttll
curious to know how,* when and where 1
habits
preserved because tbe^ world has ac
cess to moire written records of an
cient Jlreace than to those of any oth
er race. The Greeks imagined an
elaborate system of goids ai^ deim-
gods to whom they attribute not on-
jly the'origins of-everyday phenomena
but all pf the good and ill that hap
pened to human typings. In this they
were like-all other primitive peoples,
in ascribing hufnan attributes to
their deiti^.

I think a good deal of that idea
of God as nothing but a superior and
alhpowerful marf persists in the sub
conscious minds of a great many peo-

merely curiosity that prompts scien
tific investigators to' go back tb the

LIFE—^Spore Hunting
TheielaVe still millions of questions
about the beginnings of things to
which science has not found the ans
wer, but every year we come nearer
to'the truth. The origin of life itself
is a mystery which has pot been
solved. • •
A great Swedish scientist, Svend
Arrhenius, put forward a theory that
life first came to earth in the form
of spores carried through space from
some distant, point in the universe.
Scientists admit that may be true.
The American PVofessor Compton’s
discovery of ‘‘posmic rays” which
bombard th^ earth from somewhere in
intersellai space, suggests that such
a thing is possible.
When the biggest balloon ever
made went up fourteen miles into the
stratosjJhere, a few days ago, the ob-
.servers cjinied not only instruments
for detecting and measuring the cos
mic rays, but apparatqs designe<i to
collt'ct spores, if thele were any, in
this realm l)eyond the earth’s atmos-
))here. ’
