WASHINGTON, D. C, April ' Three plans by which farmers In actual practice have succeeded In Improving their personal credit and securing ,-. loans at less than the prevailing, rate of .Interest are outlined In a new publication of the United States department of agriculture, Farmers' Bulletin AO. 654, "How Farmers May Improve Their Personal Credit." The first of these plans has worked out In certain localities In North Dakota so well that the farmer has been able to borrow money on his personal note at 8 per cent at a time when the usual rate in his vicinity varied from 10 to 12 per cent. To secure this reduction In interest, the farmer agreed :that the bankers should buy the dairy stock for which he wished the loan and sell it to him at actual cost. A plan of the same general character was carried out a year or two ago in southern Idaho, but in this case three or four banks united In the purchase of a carload of dairy stock. In another case in Nevada local creamery supplied the money and held back a part of the returns from milk and cream delivered by the borrowers. Altogether 491 cows and" heifers .were distributed. among 64 farmers, the aggregate amount of money represented by the loans being $39,483. This Is the simpleet of the three methods. It consists essentially in permit-ting the lender to say how the money that he loans shall be spent. Under such circumstances hs naturally feels more secure, and the rate of interest lessens with the risk.

FARMS IN NEED OF HEAVY RAIN TO HELP CROPS Lack of Moisture Retards Early Growth of Clover Wheat, Alfalfa and Pasture Grass. BY A. O: COBB. The only thing now needed to make farm conditions, ideal for this season .. of the year, is a good-drenching rain. Farmers. Report that land has been plowed is drying out badly, which in some cases is making it hard to work into seed bed condition. The lack of moisture in the soil is also retarding . the early growth of the clover, alfalfa, and pasture grass. On the other hand, fruit growers are not complaining since conditions which hold back the budding . of the trees, are desirable, since the buds are kept back until after the danger from late frosts Is past. Wheat Needs Rain. Wheat, which went through the winter in such excellent condition, is also showing the effects of the dry weather and ' is yellowing in many places. Farmers do not consider that the roots have been damaged to any great extent however. The recent warm days have been times of great- activities, on local! farms. Gardens have been planted.1 .1 a 1 e: i . . . I ttuu me iinai toucnes nave been put on the plowing which has been done earlier this year than usual. Many farmers now have their soil ready to plant corn. Favors Oats. The season has been unusually favorable for the sowing of oats, and it is said that a large acreage has been put out. Many farmers who do not make a practice of raising oats because weather conditions are usually so unfavorable at sowing time, have taken advantage of the good conditions that year, and sowed large fields. The first spraying of fruit trees is nearly completed, and orchardists are hurrying the work along as the lime sulphur Bpray must be applied before the leaves begin to bud.

DIE GRAICIIEN IN FLANDERS hskun, April 7. News of the evacuation of the German position at Die Oralchen in West Flanders and of Tencn advances northeast of Verdun In the Woevre district, is contained In an official statement by the German general staff today. The report shows that the French have started a terrific offensive movement east of tha Maura "The village of Die Graichen, which was occupied Monday, was wrecked by an artillery fire from heavy guns and 'also from mine throwers. For wis reason we abandoned the position last night In the Ars-onne forest th French attack broke down under the nre of the Chasseurs." The American note to England and France expressing the attitude of th United States on the British "order In council" blockading German ports, has not been received favorably here. The complete text of the note has not reached Berlin, but commenting on me summary of the contents the in fluentlal Cologne Gazette says: "It appears that the note was fram ed against Germany rather than against England. It is so drafted that ngjana may leave it unnoticed with oui any reason to fear any serious eiep irom tne United States." SOUTH SIDE LOTS WANTED TO ASSIST RELIEF GARDENERS Forty Applicants Ask for Gardens But South Side Owners Delay in Offering Free Sites. With more than forty applications filed by south side residents for summer gardens, owners of lot In th south end have failed to come forward to supply the demand. The Central Charity bureau and others Interested in the summer nr. den plan, are now asking to hear from soutn side property owners. Unless lots come In with a rush, it will ha impossible to supply the applications In time to start the gardens. Other sections of the city have responded. Today, thirty lots, sixteen in Rlverdale and fourteen west of the nver nad been assigned. Work on 8hares. Various propositions have been made to the central bureau to give lots on shares. One was -accepted. I i An acre of ground was donated east of the city and the owner will receive i one-third of what the srardner raises. This plan will not be used on smaller tracts or ground where the' truck raised will not exceed the demands of the gardener's family but will be accepted for large plots. West Side and Fairview schools have taken great interest in the summer gardening and have done most of the work of securing ground west of the river.

TRUSTEES TO CHECK STUDENT TRANSFERS After a discussion of the new transfer law passed by last legislature, township trustees in session today voted to stop transfering pupils whenever possible. The result will be the employment of two more teachers for Wayne township and twenty- pupils will be taken from Garfield school and divided between Earlham Heights township school and the old Sevastopol township school on West Fifth street. Only Jackson and Ablngton townships are affected by the law at present. The trustees read tbe law and found it required that per capita cost of education in the schools to which pupils are transferred, must be paid by the township whereas the present cost is less than half of this amount. New school hacks made by the Wayne works were examined. A number of trustees are figuring on purchasing new hacks for the 1915-1816 school term. TAKES VACATION. NEW PARIS. O.. April 7.
