There mav be two or three spells of this warm, dreamy, secondsummer weather, one of which is likely to occur along about the twentieth of the month just before winter sets in for good, and after frost has blighted most of the green vegetation. The cause of hazy condition of the atmosphere so characteristic of Indian summer, is variously given. The early settlers con.netted both and the name with the Indians, variously giving the following reason: The haze was due to the smoke from Indian campfires; the Indians predicted such weather at stated times; as it always followed “squaw winter." it therefore must be Indian summer; it was the last period in the year to be chosen by the Indian in his raid upon white settlement»;\ like the Indian himself, they said, it is deceptive, in these days the cause of the haze is attributed to the smoke from fcrest fires and burning leaves, combined with dust and particles of drying vegetation contained in the atmosphere. Nothing in the Indian language corresponds to the name Indian summer. Similar weather in England and in Germany ** is known as St. Martin's summer, Al! _ Hallow summer and old womans summer. Horace Walpole, as early as 1778, used the term in reference to weather in the tropics.—lndianapolis News. +♦+♦+♦♦ + + ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦

OLD MAN GREEN

Old Man Green, you've never heard of. Papers never used a word of Him or anything he did; Seems as though his light was hid Day by day from mortal eyes, Wasn't clever, great or wise; Just a carpenter who made Odds and ends and liked his trade. / i Old Man Green lived over there In that humble cottage, where Five plump babies came to bless Those small rooms with happiness; And as time went on they grew Just as rich mens dfildren do: Three smart, boys and two fiac- girls With the prettiest of curls. Put up shelves to earn his pay, ‘ Old Man Green from day to day Took the little that he made

UNEARNED CRITICISM By FRANCIS H. SISSON Chairman, Public Relations Commie- | sion American Bankora Association There baa been some disposition to I criticize the administration of the | country’s banking system for the sud-

den collapse ot prices and curtailment of credits in 1920 and 1911. and the subsequent financial difficulties of ths farmers. As a matter ot fact, whatever blame may attach to bankers must bo fog the too generous financing, in 1 many cases, ot spec-

nlatlve Investment In farm property during the period of inflation. If any I just criticism could be directed at the I manner in which the Federal Reserve System functioned In this situation in i the opinion of many It would be that the Reserve banks delayed too long in raising the rediscount rates. An earJ Iler effort might have stayed the procI ess of inflation. The collapse of 1920 was by no 1 means confined toagriculture, atfli was i the inevitable sequel to the Inflation period. All branches of business suffered In this period of reaction and perhaps none more than ban King, against which this criticism has been levelled. The financial situation of the farmers was greatly aggravated by the fact that the high land values and high prices of agricultural products had led many farmers to incur obligations based on the Inflated values. If the farmer was victimized at all. indeed, he was the victim of too much rather than too little consideration. The real progress which has been achieved in agricultural finance in recent years lies more In the intelligent distribution of farm credit than in volume. With agencies now functioning for the provision of ample credits tor the American farmer, his enduring success •depends upon the wisdom and fore sight with which he meets the prob letns of production and marketing More than ever before, nis activities must be regulated with reference to world conditions, and his profits, like those of the manufacturer or meri chant, will reflect the measure ot his success in adjusting his activities to these conditions.
