They apparently have done a splendid job. “The loans are being put to the ( best use in Tennessee, Northern | Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkan-1 sas. Everywhere 1 saw new garden > fences. The ground is being prepar-1 ed. They have the seed and the i means for a new crop. One require-' 'ment we have made is that those who receive loans should put in I gardens.
