And BULL MONTANA in 4 ROB 'EM GOOD" Next Week RUPERT OF HENZAU ; j - SECURE CREDIT ON WHEAT ON FARMS The government machinery is now 'all feet to give wheat farmers credit on grain stored in farm warehouses, act oi ding to intormation received recently by R. D. Wadley, manager of the Utah County Farm Bureau. There are in Utah county approximately 2500 wheat farmers who annually produce nearly one million bushels of wheat. The greater amount of wheat shipped outside of the county is produced in the south end of the county, and to the growers in that section the interpretation of the intermediate credits act, according to Mr. Wadley, will be of much benefit. The information received by the local farm bureau office outlining the plan for farm storage is identical with that of the American Farm Bureau which is claimed to be entirely feasible and practical under the intermediate credits act and revised federal warehouse act. Gray Silver, Washington representative of the national farm bureau association, reports the interpretation of the act as being as follows: An individual or an association or partnership desiring to enter the public warehouse business and which can meet the requirements may be authorized under the act. A plan for farm storage within the law is along the following lines: A num ber of farmers in a community might form a corporate organization. The various farm storages might then foe leased or sold to the corporation. The corporation could then operate the various units as a public warehousing system. When the corporation meets all the requirements of the act and the regulations, and when it is determined that the various units are suitable for the purpose of the act, a license would be issued the corporation to operate the different plants. The corporation, however, would be obliged to operate the different units as public storage plants. If the farmers of a community should desire to form a corporate organization for the purpose of storing wheat on their farms, they can do so providing their storage bins are approved by a representative of the United States department of agriculture. When these units are thus grouped they would operate as a public warehouse system. The warehouseman would then issue receipts which would be acceptable to the local banker and would be discounted by him at any of the twelve intermediate credit banks. The receipts would show whether the wheat has been graded or whether it is no grade wheat. The wheat would foe inspected at the time it is placed in the bins on farms, and the warehouse man would be responsible for the delivery of wheat representing the certificate. The reason for storing wheat In bonded warehouses, of course, is because the bankers will lend monev more readily on wheat thus stored. These warehouse receipts which the warehouse man will issue on the wheat stored in his warehouse may be taken to the local bankers and from 60 to 75 per cent borrowed on the current value of the wheat in In Her Sensational Photodramatic Drug Expose-- - mm r A colossal photodrama built out of the very fabric of stripped of reserve, born of the nobility of a womans soul,4 and dedicated to the cause of saving other lives from the terrible curse of narcotics.

If a farmers cooperative wheat marketing association wishes to borrow, it should take receipts direct to one of the twelve intermediate banks, and the interest charged would be aboue one and one-ha- lf per cent less than an individual can secure it from a local bank. The next move is naturally up to the farmers, and by taking advantage of the act as stated by Assistant Secretary C. W. Pugsley of the department of agriculture in his interpretation, it is entirely within the farmers power to await a market with two hundred million bushels of wheat. There are around two and one-ha- lf millions wheat farmers and at least 40 per cent of these have If each of one million granaries. Wheat farmers would store in these wheat bins only 200 bushels, they would then be able to market in an orderly manner. This awaiting aa consumptive market would act as stabilizer and the wheat farmer would be able to get the best price the market affords. The warehouses, under the amended act, might be owned individually or by a corporation. According to Mr. Wadley, the intermediate credits act became effective last April. The amended act, however, is more recent.

The board, calls attention to the fact that the total gross bonded indebtedness of state and local governments !bas Increased from $3,850, 000, 00 inil913 to more than at present, placing kn annual, burden of in$4 on every man, woman and child this country for debt service charges. Several instances of large increases in the Ipst ten years are cited, notably Arizona from $10,000,000 to California from $10,000,000 to $76,000,000 and the combined indebtedness of county governments I $10,-000,00,0- $43,-000,00- from $12,000,000 to $119,000,000. Some municipalities, the' board says, have utilized methods more becoming to enterprises than to governmental bodies that should serve as models of conduct to private industry. ( There are cases where bonds have'been issued to pay current expenses contrary to specific state laws, where legal debt limits have 'been expended, and where valhave been considerably uations boosted so as to keep municipal issues within the legal debt limit. School buildings, it adds, have been financed by bonds and in one case the board found that a municipality sold a block of bonds in 1872 for acquiring water works, which were never bought, although the bonds have been twice refunded. fly-diyig- 65-ye- ar V 00 0, 4- - mediate bank.
