A further v-fojt is to be given the high cost of "itring if the delegation of 100 Ameribmdb which is to sail from here for vyt Spies Saturday succeeds in its enxdeavor to devise a separate banking system for American ' farmers. " The -"Official name of the delegation is the 'American Commission on Agricultural -XJeHiperation. The investigation is to be made under the auspices of The '"-Southern Commercial Congress.

President Wilson takes a -"4ceen interest in the undertaking and If ill address the delegates personally :;before they leave Washington. The commission is to be headed by "leven federal commissioners bearing he credentials of President Wilson ,nd Secretary of State Bryan. They tjvlll make a report to Congress upon vine practicability of establishing farmers' co-operative banks and a mortgage bank system in the United States peopled after the agricultural credit systems of European countries. BeSptttea the federal commissioners there are delegates representing about threeJburths of t-.e States of the Union who Vlrjvill make a report to a committee of Spine Governors appointed at the last conference of the State Executives. In jlThis way official recommendations will ;.pe placed before Congress and the "State legislatures urging a consideration of the credit requirements of the farmers both as a means of assisting Jhe farmers and of relieving the consumers of the country from the burden of the high cost of living. Currency Reform, s The work of the commission is closely connected with the efforts of the banking and commercial interests to. secure currency reform. The prinJfpal claim of those seeking currency reform is that under the preseDt banking syBtem which permits banks to jUleposit their funds with other banks Who in turn deposit them in Chicago or New York, the tendency is to coltwei the surplus of the nation's funds $j the big speculative centers where Jhey stimulate stock gambling. The Currency reformers want permission f-stended the banks to lend more freely and with better returns to those engaged in legitimate commerce and flianufacturing work. The American Commission on Agricultural Co-operation similarly wants a supplementary (Tanking system built up which will be Controlled by the farmers and which iilll divert a large portion of the savPOPULAR VERDICT Based on Evldenoe of Richmond is -1 People. !l Grateful thousands tell it j Of weak backs made strong Of weak kidneys made well.

ings of rural communities to the development of the farms. It is claimed that in Germany such a system has been able to supply as high as 98 percent of all the money required by the German farmers for their operating expenses from such deposits. Similar systems are in operation in nearly every country in Europe. It Ib to study the operation Of these systems that the commission is visiting those countries. The second attempt of the commission will be to secure the establishment of a mortgage banking system in the United States. Such a system in Germany has brought over $2,000,000,000 to the German landowners for the development and improvement of their land. In France the mortgage bonds of the Credit Foncier which are only the farmers' mortgages under a different form, sell at lower interest rates than even first class industrial bonds. It is declared that if a mortgage banking system could be established in the United States, billions of dollars of additional money could be secured for the farmers at much lower rates and on better terms and that with the great development in American farms which this money would make possible, the problem of food production in the United States, which is rapidly becoming worse, would be solved forever. The federal commissioners appointed by the President are Senator Duncan U. Fletcher, lawyer.farmer, and President of The Southern Commerc ial Congress, Senator Thomas P. Gore, of Oklahoma, chairman of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Representative Moss, of Indiana, who was a farmer before he entered Congress and is now chairman of the House Committee on expenditures in the Department of Agriculture, Col. Harvie Jordan, former President of the Farmers Union, Kenyon L. Butterfleld, a member of President Roosevelt's Country Life Commission and President Amherst College, John Lee Coulter, the Government's expert on Agricultural statistics and Dr. Clarence J. Owens, Managing Director of The Southern Commercial Congress. The state delegates include farmers, bankers, lawyers, and econamlsts. Vincent Astor was appointed a delegate from New York by Governor Sulzer and Prime Minister of Saskatchewan heads a delegation of Canadians representing four provinces of the Dominion. The Commission returns from Europe in August and will then prepare its report to Congress and the states.

LAXATIVE FOR OLD PEOPLE-CASCARETS." What glasses are to weak eyes, Cascarets are to weak bowels Try a 10-cent box. Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipation. The condition is perfectly natural. It Is Just as natural as it is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active as youth. The muscles are less elastic. And the bowels are muscles. So all old people need Cascarets. One might as well refuse to aid weak eyes with glasses as to neglect this gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels must be kept active. This is important at all ages, but never so much as at fifty. Age is not a time for harsh physics. Youth may occasionally whip the bowels into activity. But a lash can't be used every day. What the bowels of the old need Is a gentle and natural tonic. One that can be constantly used without harm. The only such tonic is Cascarets and they coat only 10 cents per box at any drug store. They work while you sleep. (Advertisement)

"Clincher" Paint We know a paint which holds to the) wood like a driven nail. Seasoned lumber is porous. The pores are tLe empty sapcells. White lead paint, which dries on the wood in the form of a solid, elastic film, fastens into these pores, and the whole coat of paint is actually riveted like armorplate to the surface it decorates and protects. Anchor White Lead (Dutch Boy Trade-Mark) and Pure Linseed Oil make the paint that spreads into a solid body. It becomes a part of the wood itself an outer layer that preserves the life of the lumber. We sell it as well as other painting requisites. Come in and have a talk with us about painting. Jones Hardware Co.

Weakness may be caused by a rundown condition, mal-assimllatlon of food, lack of iron in the blood of a result of sickness. Whatever the cause, we want to say to every person who needs strength, you need Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron tonic without oil, as it is the most efficient strength creator we have in our store. A case has Just come to our attention from West Baden, Ind. A beau tiful young lady was a complete wreck, run-down, worn out and nervous, so she had to spend one-third of her time in bed. Nothing which was given her did any good until Vinol was recommended by her druggist, which she says did her more good than all the medicine she ever took in her life put together, as it built her up so she is now strong, well and active. It is the medicinal elements of the cods' livers contained in Vinol aided by the blood making and strengthening properties of tonic iron which makes it so successful and we will return your money if it does not help you.
