RURAL CREDIT
BANKS URGED
Insurance Company's Experience
Shows Soundness of Farm
Mortgages.
In his letter to the governor of the
states asking for their co-operation In
securing remedial lawe for the farm
ers of the country President Taft said:
The twelve million farmers in the
United Statos add each year to tne Na
tional wealth $8,400,000,000. They are
doing this on a borrowed capital of
$6.040,000,000. On this sum they pay
annually Interest charges of $510,000,
000. Counting commissions and re
newal charges, the Interest rate paid
by the farmers of this country Is 8 1-2
per cent, as sompared to a rate of
1 1-2 per cent, paid by the farmer, for
instance, of France and Germany.
*
The subject of rural credits was the
most important discussion at the re
cent conference of the governors at
Richmond; but on account of the fre
quent eruptions of Gov. Bleaso of
South Carolina and the valuable time
wasted on him It failed of that care-1
ful consideration It deserved. What Is
needed Is a system of agricultural co
operative credit In this country. There j
appears to be general agreement upon'
this point. It is needed in all the.
States, adapted to the varying condi
tions obtaining in the several States.)
It is particularly needed in the South.I
as Gov. O'Neal of Alabama showed in
his exhaustive paper on the subject.)
Notwithstanding the fact that the crop!
values have Incrensed 1118 per cent, in
jthe South Atlantic States, as compared
with an Increase of 56 per cent, in the
Central Western States, the farmer in
that part of the country Is "still con
fronted with the old problem of agri
cultural credits" and is still paying
enormous tribute to the agencies which
control the money or credit of the na
tion. In Alabama, and in the South
generally, the farmer of limited
means is forced to resort to crop liens
or chattel mortgages to obtain the
credit necessary for the prosecution of
his work, with the result that his nose
is always to the grindstone, although
as the result of his labors under these
distressing conditions he adds yearly
to the productive wealth of the coun
try In one crop alone well above $1,
000,000,000. As It is with the cotton
growers of the South, so It also is with
the wheat and corn growers of the
West. There is the same cry and the
same necessity all around for the
means with which to do business.
?
Yet such have been the conditions
under which the farmers have been
iompelled to do business that they
have had to pay enormous interest
charges. With property worth three
times Its mortgagon indebtedness,
some way ought to be found for the
deliverance of the farmers of Alabama
and all other similarly situated farm
ers from the exactions of the usurers,
nnd that way It is believed the rural
credit banks would provide. No oth
er business In the world could have
stood the strain that has been plac
ed upon the farmers of this country
who feed us all. The objection to land
mortgages as security for loans made
from the banks is not In respect of
value, but In respect of their Imme
diately realizable quality or liquid
ity. They are worth the loans made
upon them, but they are not readily
convertible Into cash. and. lacking this
negotiable quality, they have not been
sought generally by the institutions
which arc required by the nature of
their business to made rapid changes
ot their securities into cash. This
difficulty It Is expected to overcome by
the establishment of rural credit
banks and as the security will he good
there Is little doubt that the plan will
be worked out In this country as it
has been worked out in other lands to
the advantage of the farmers and with
out injury to the bankers.?New York

TO SAVE OLD FRIGftTE
Societies Urge That Constellation
Be Saved From Decay.
Famous Craft Was Launched In 1797,
and Fought Against French Pri
vateers and Through War
of 1812.
Newport, H. I.?The frigate Constel
lation. Truxton's gallant old ship,
which cleaned the Atlantic of Kreuch
privateers and struck the colors of
many a hostile craft In the War of
1812, lies off Newport, lt. L, In very
poor condition. Many patriotic so
cletles are pressing the navy depart*
mont to see to it that she Is pic
served.
The Constellation Is now used us
a receiving ship, but she soon will be
taken out of commission ami brought
to Annapolis. The navy department
has no money to rebuild her old hulk,
and unless a patriotic sentiment de
mands her preservation the once mag
niflcent old frigate will become a rot
ting wreck of old timbers and moss.
The Constellation was built by
David Stodert at Baltimore and
launched September 7, 1797. She was
161 feet long, forty-foot beam, 1,266
tons and cost $314,212, She carried
twenty-eight twenty-four-pounders in
tho main deck battery and twelve
twelve-pounders on the spar deck, in
June, 1798, she sailed under command
of Capt. Thomas Truxton for a cruise
botween Cape Henry and the coast of
Florida. In August she, In company
with the Baltimore, convoyed a flcol
of ?lxty merchant vessels In safety
from Havana to the United states.
On February 9, 1799. the Constella
tion captured tho French frigate In
surgente.
In January, 1800, she sailed for the
Island of Quadaloupe, which was the
headquarters of tho French priva
teers, and on February I, 7:::o a. to.,
she gave chase to the French frigate
Vengeance. After chasing the outire
day she came within hailing at 8 p. m,
and for four hours there was a lively
fight, the Constellation losing her
mainmast, every shioud being shot
away, in the excitement tho French
slip escaped In the darkness, and the
Consttdl.ition was obliged to make
her way to Jamaica to relit.
Under the command of Capt. Alex
ander Murray she was sent to tho
Mediterranean during the war with
the Barbnry powers In the squadron
of Commodore H. V. Morris
In January, 1813, she sailed from
Washington under command of Capt,
Charles Stewart, nnd dropped down
to Hampton Roads, only to find such
a strong force of British ships block
adlng as to make it impossible to get
to sea, and was shut In during tlu
st Irring years of this war with Great
Britain.
The Constellation was at the Ports
mouth navy yard until March, lvi'-2,
when she was sent to tho Mediter
ranean under command of Commo
dore Henry K. Thatcher, where she
remained for the next two years.
From 1865 to 1 v?'?7 she was receiving
ship at Norfolk, and from 1867 t<> 1870
receiving ship at Philadelphia. In
1871 she was practice and gunnery
ship at Washington, and then sent to
tho naval academy at Annapolis.
For several years she has been re
ceiving ship at the Now port Btatlon,
TO ELECTRIFY A SCHOOLROOM
New York Board of Education Will
Try Swedish Scheme to Get
Extraordinary Results.
New York.? Tin,- Now York board
of education is expected to authorize
a trial this fall of a Swedish scheme
for electrifying a schoolroom and
thereby producing extraordinary re
suits from the pupils, The experi
ment, which has met with some suc
cess In Stockholm, will be tried on a
room In which a class of defective
pupils Is boing taucht The cost for a
year's trial will be less than $10,000
Tho eleotrlflcntor consists of a so
rles of wires In the walls of the clas
room. Those wires will be charged
with high frequency currents Tin
plan will be to havo two classrooms,
as nearly alike as possiblo, one elec
trified and the other not, each to havo
the same number of pupils. At the
end of a certain period comparisons
will be made between the pupils in
the electrified room and those in the
room not electrified.
